Choices And Consequences In Shakespeare's Romeo And Juliet

Are Romeo and Juliet truly affectionate towards each other? How would know? Romeo and Juliet is about two “star crossed lovers” that are unable to meet under the circumstances of their parents. Juliet 's family, the Capulets have a strong hate towards Romeo 's family, the Montagues. Juliet is so in love with Romeo that when he finds her mistakenly dead he takes a deadly potion that kills him almost instantly.

The first person to die is Mercutio, who is killed in a fight with Tybalt (Act III Scene I). This is a heartbreaking loss for Romeo, who then proceeds to fight and kill Tybalt as revenge. This leads to the banishment of Romeo, another tragic incident. After Romeo is banished, Juliet and the Friar devise a plan to ensure that Juliet will not be forced to marry Paris (Act IV Scene I), the suitor who Juliet’s parents want her to marry. To take the plan into action, Juliet drinks a potion that makes her appear dead (Act IV Scene III).

Romeo and Juliet is a play about star-crossed lovers. Romeo is apart of a high class Montague family; their rival is the Capulet family. Romeo falls in love with the daughter of Lord Capulet. They want to get married but they know that this will not be approved between their family feud. This is why they secretly ask Friar Laurence to marry them in secret.

Fate cannot be changed Romeo and Juliet is a story of love that was destined for obliteration. They were innocent and fell in love with the wrong person. Fate is responsible for every action, idea, and scenes that led to “the fearful passage of their death-mark’d love.” (Prologue.9) The three events and aspects of fate led to the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet include: the feud between the two families, the nurse’s betrayal of Juliet, and fate during the masquerade party. Fate is the foundation, leading to calamity and the ruin of Romeo and Juliet. The chance of falling in love with a person whose family is feuding with his/her own family is low.

Friar Laurence, proposes a dangerous plan to Juliet. Friar expresses his disapproval of the wedding plans, telling Paris that he does not know Juliet well enough to get married to her. Once alone, Juliet and the Friar talk about what can be done to save Juliet from the fate of becoming the wife of two men. He has a potion that will make her appear dead when she drinks it, and it will keep her the lifeless state for forty-two hours. Juliet excitedly approves of the plan and goes home to drink the potion.

In the story Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare many tragic events take place in a play that was supposed to be about love. The play is about two lovers who only want to be together but are plagued by tragic events and what could’ve been. If the two had made good decisions this story would be a lot different. Romeo is the character most responsible for the tragic events in the play because his and Juliet 's suicide occurred because of his mistakes, by accident he got Mercutio killed his mother also died by his actions, and finally he murdered Tybalt and Paris. One of the most tragic events in the whole play is the death of both Romeo and Juliet this happens because of Romeo’s mistakes.

All that fighting causes Romeo to be banished. After all that, Romeo allegedly hears of Juliet 's “death” so he goes back to Verona and kills himself next to Juliet. Then Juliet wakes up next to the dead Romeo and kills herself with his dagger. Overall, Romeo and Juliet show love is stronger than hate as they risk their lives just to see each other and eventually die together. Hate may have killed them, but hate is not enough to disrupt their love, they are still together, even when they are dead.

Tragedy is all around us in the world. The tragedy of Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet is that so many people receive fault for the death of Romeo and Juliet. Friar Lawrence is at fault because he tells Juliet to fake her death and he is unable to communicate this to Romeo. Fate is also to blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare writes the play giving the audience the final decision of who is at fault for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet.

Death, tragedy, misery, love, and unity, all of these words describe the story of Romeo and Juliet, but it all revolved around Tybalt making his first terrible mistake. In the play Romeo and Juliet written by Shakespeare, the short story is that two young lovers secretly get married, people murder in anger, the two lovers get separated, and then end their lives in a tragic death because of no communication. But, like I said, this all revolves around a mistake Tybalt makes because of the feud between the Capulet (Juliet’s family) and the Montague (Romeo’s family). Tybalt is the character most to blame for the tragic events in Romeo and Juliet because, he killed Mercutio, which lead to Romeo 's banishment, which then leads to the suicides of Romeo

Romeo and Juliet is a tragic play about two enemies kids fall in love. The two kids hid their love from them which lead the kids to their death. There events and characters that cause Romeo’s and Juliet’s death. I think Lord/ lady Capulet , the event when Tybalt wanted to fight Romeo, and also the event when Romeo went to the Capulet’s party were primarily responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because they all could have been prevented. Lord/Lady capulet is responsible for the death of Romeo and Juliet because they pressured their daughter Juliet just to get what they wanted for her.
