Mixed Emotions In Romeo And Juliet

When people communicate poorly--or not at all--the lack of knowledge or understanding that results can cause unfortunate consequences and disastrous tragedies such as heartbreak--or even death. This is distinctly noticeable throughout the play The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet and the twenty-first century today. In Act III, Scene Five of the play, Lady Capulet finds Juliet weeping in her quarters. When she asks Juliet why she is crying, Juliet simply states: “Madam, I am not well.” Lady Capulet takes this as a sign that Juliet is weeping over her cousin’s death, even though Juliet neither affirms nor denies that she cries for Tybalt.

Romeo and Juliet: The Story of Young Infatuation “Love is not affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person’s ultimate good as far as it can be obtained” ~ C. S. Lewis Lay theologian and literary critic C. S. Lewis has a very clear view on love. Romeo and Juliet have an infatuation with each other that is often confused with love, but it is not. Romeo and Juliet do not show examples of wanting the best for each other, in fact they continuously make selfish decisions that only benefit themselves. C. S. Lewis says that love is not a feeling; the young teens mistake their affectionate feelings for one another with a true love, which it is not. In Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Romeo and Juliet neglect to think of each other when making decisions and do not know each other before they get married, which shows that Romeo and Juliet were not in love but rather infatuated with the each other.

Emotions are what propel you forward to reach your goal, but what also stop you from breaking your limits. They are what weigh into our decisions and help lead us to the choices we forever live with. Not only can they determine what we do, but also when and how we do it. At times they are stronger than others, pulling us forward or throwing us back as if we have absolutely no control. Just like in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, the entire lives of two teenagers led by the emotions that they couldn’t ignore.

In this essay I will be exploring how Shakespeare illustrates the theme of love in Romeo and Juliet with particular reference to Act one scene five and Act two scene two. The play has multiple types of love shown throughout, however in this piece I will be focusing on Romantic love, more specifically, the love between Romeo and Juliet. I find this category of love to often be more vividly expressed in writing, with the use of additional poetic techniques. Act one scene five begins with servants conversing and progresses on to a conversation between Capulet, Tybalt and Romeo. Romeo’s first speech of the scene holds many types of imagery and poetic terms to portray emotion.

Romeo and Juliet”: True Love Romeo and Juliet is known as one of the most romantic love stories in literary history, furthuring this point is the true love and sincerity between Romeo and Juliet which is justified by religious imagery and language, the overall theme of fate, along with solemn tone regarding love found in the text. Throughout the play, Shakespeare consistently makes use of religious imagery and language. It is used to display how their love is “holy” and “pure”, and does not allow for it to be dismissed.

Although some people can argue Romeo and Juliet 's relationship was based on love, I believe their relationship was solely based on lust, because of the outside pressures through social interactions between themselves and their families, their physical interactions and sexual drive toward one another and the speed of their relationship prove that Romeo and Juliet had pressures and thoughts that were not based on their love for each other, but were based on lust and their desire for sexual

William Shakespeare uses the motif of misused passion to show the meaning of love between Romeo & Juliet and often hasty decisions can have terrible ending.

Juliet once stated about love, “It is an honor that I dream not of,” obviously wanting nothing to do with it, she was unaware that very soon she will be in a very strong relationship with Romeo. When Juliet met Paris, she was civil towards him but she did not show the passion she proposed to Romeo after laying eyes on him.

Juliet Capulet, a girl who had no desire for love eventually fell head over heels for Romeo, and her love so intense,
