Poison And Daggers: A Deathly Love

In William Shakespeare 's Romeo and Juliet both the Capulets and the Montagues make several mistakes, but there is one person most responsible. Juliet 's father, Lord Capulet, is most to blame for the events that occurred and for his daughter 's death. Romeo would have never met Juliet if Lord Capulet had kicked him out of the party. In scene 5 of act 1 Tybalt recognized Romeo and instead of dueling him, Lord Capulet said to leave Romeo alone. Even if Lord Capulet thought that Romeo was not going to cause any problems he should have still kicked Romeo out, because he was not invited.

If Friar didn’t marry them it would of not started the chain reactions of events that occur next. The play ends with three tragic deaths; those including being Romeo and Juliet. Friar Laurence is mostly to blame for the tragic events in Romeo and Juliet, because of he did things in secret, not communicating clearly, and not executing his plans. The first reason why Friar Laurence is to blame is because he married Romeo and Juliet.

He came up with the crazy plan that led to their eventual death. Since he didn’t make sure that the information about the plan was delivered to Romeo on time, it caused a lot of confusion. After Juliet woke up and saw that Romeo was dead, Friar Lawrence left her alone in Capulet’s tomb instead of making sure she wouldn’t do anything dangerous. After the ball, Juliet tells her parents that she doesn’t want to marry Paris because she is too young, but the truth is, she is already in love with Romeo. Her parents don’t agree with her and decided she is going to marry in

Everything from that point on did not go well at all. Being that Friar also married the couple secretly is also why he should be punished. Friar should be punished because if he had asked for permission to marry the couple none of this would have happened. Juliet’s parents may have been more understanding then making her marry Count Paris. Friar should have also had a better plan than what had happened with the vial he gave Juliet.

The final reason that Friar is to blame is because at the near end of the story all Friar had to do is get Juliet out of the tomb after she woke up, so she wouldn 't see Romeo 's dead body next to her, which he tried to but he obviously failed. He also could have stayed after Juliet saw his body to make sure she wouldn 't have killed herself. Instead he ran away because he heard someone coming and he didn 't want to get caught and seen as a grave robber. He could have forced her to come with him when he ran out of the tomb

Last, Friar Laurence played a huge role in the lovers’ death by uniting Romeo and Juliet and forming a plan to keep them together, hoping to end the feud between the two families. For instance, after the death of Mercutio and Tybalt, Friar was still unaware of the consequences of Romeo and Juliet 's marriage. Instead, he continued his effort in uniting the lovers. The plan he concocted for uniting them was perilous and ill- conceived. He decided to fake Juliet 's death in order to help her out of her bind and unite her with Romeo in Mantua.

In theory, this should have caused Juliet to feel pure hatred towards Romeo. Ironically, Tybalt 's death brought the couple even closer together in love. However, the Capulet family did not know of the secret relationship and wanted to put Romeo to his death. Tybalt 's death affected each member of the Capulet family and moved the plot closer to its tragic ending. As Tybalt 's legacy, Romeo was exiled from Verona, and for a time, could not see Juliet anymore.

While she was asleep he needed a message delivered to Romeo so he didn't think she was dead, but the message couldn't be delivered then told his messenger how important it was after he couldn't get it there. The friar was not successful in getting his message to Romeo, which then set off many more faults by the friar. The friar did not tell the other friar, Friar John, how important this letter was until it was too late and the message couldn't get to him. In Act 5 Scene 2 lines 17-20 Friar Laurence states, “Unhappy Fortune!

Also If Juliet’s parents were aware of the marriage they most likely would not have made her marry Paris. Juliet having to marry Paris was what inspired the plan that led to Romeo and Juliet's untimely demise. In this instance Shakespeare uses dramatic irony to drive the plot forward. If the characters in the play were aware of the marriage then they would get mad, and many of the things that led to the deaths of Romeo and Juliet wouldn’t have happened, including the Friar's plan to have Juliet fake

Both of these quotes show us that the love of these two was destined to end tragically. The masquerade party was, above all, the most important event. The fact that Romeo was wearing a mask with his face hidden, allowed Juliet to fall in love with him before she knew his identity. If Juliet had known who Romeo was, she probably would not have fallen in love with him. It is fate of how they met and fate could not have been changed or controlled.

If Tybalt had not killed Mercutio, Romeo would not have gotten upset with Tybalt. When people found out about Tybalt being killed by Romeo, the Prince banished him from Verona. Since he gets banished it is harder for him to see Juliet, which also made it hard for the news about her being in a deep sleep to reach Romeo. These are my reasons on why Tybalt should also be to blame for the two

Friar Lawrence finds out about Romeo and Juliet’s love for each other, but does not tell the two families about this. In addition to this, he married Romeo and Juliet quickly without thinking. He then comes up with the plan to pretend that Juliet was dead, so she can get out of marrying Paris. Friar Lawrence also takes the blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet in the end. There were many people who had caused Romeo and Juliet’s death, but Friar Lawrence had caused most of the problems

The friar 's inability to succesfully delivering the letter to Romeo stating that Juliet was alive was a gap that caused romeo to make his harsh decision, but it was too late once he got to the tomb. Upon killing Paris and himself with the poison, Romeo fell beside Juliet, whom stabbed herself once she awoke upon seeing Romeo dead before her eyes. Had Romeo and Juliet respected their families wishes, had they not gone into secrecy, had their relatives stayed out of their love, they wouldnt have blindly caused

“These violent delights have violent ends.” (II, vi, 9). However, he does not take his own words into good use as the friar, unexpectedly, makes a plan to fake Juliet’s death to prevent her from marrying Paris. Friar Lawrence gives the potion to Juliet without a second thought. Yet, Juliet thinks of possible weakness in the friar’s plan and potion.

The blame is on Romeo because he acted too hastily throughout the play. He shouldn 't have asked Juliet to marry him so suddenly, and he should have thought more carefully bedfellows rushing back to Verona after hearing of Juliet 's death. He also acted violently and without thinking he killed Tybalt and later on, he killed Paris too. Romeo and Juliet were both going to get married, but first they needed to go to Friar Laurence 's cell. The father didn 't like that idea, but he saw that they were both really in love with each other, so he was going to marry them.
