Two fathers together, for the first time, wept for the deaths of their children as their grief-stricken faces shone in the dusty light inside the tomb. Pain seared equally through all hearts of the Capulets and Montagues, both distraught by the unexpected death of their beloved children. The star-crossed lovers, Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet, recklessly fall in love despite their families’ raging feud. The couple’s newlywed lustful attitudes get them both, and many others, wistfully killed in William Shakespeare's incredible 16th century play, Romeo and Juliet. Due to the brilliant script of the play many question who is truly to blame for these abominable deaths.
1. Shakespeare was truthful and accurate in the play Romeo and Juliet. During the time of the play, there was a bubonic plague. This plague was killing millions of people, destroying families, and causing there to be many fights amongst families of wealth. During the final Scene of the play Friar Lawrence caught the plague and he ended up not being able to transfer Romeo a message about the faked death of Juliet.
Have you ever wondered how life was like when schools were only for the privilege and Kings still ruled over cities. Well Romeo and Juliet tells of just that. In the story a man and a woman meet and instantly fall in love, but both of their families are in a fued which causes plenty of bloodshed and ultimately the death of the two lovers, now the question is who is to blame for the blood loss and tears shed for them? The first thing that came to mind was the feud between the two families.
One of the most asked questions about the star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet, is “Who is to blame for the untimely deaths of these young lovers?”. The play Romeo and Juliet, written by William Shakespeare, is filled with very influential emotions. The tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet were brought about by many characters such as Lord Capulet, fate and a feud between two families. One of the most substantial characters in Romeo and Juliet is fate. There are many times where Shakespeare leads us to believe that fate is involved with the hapless deaths of Juliet and Romeo.
Even though fate and destiny bear some responsibility for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet, the impact love had on their brains is to blame since it possessed them and made them take more risks. When Romeo and Juliet first fell in love with each other, their love possessed them, which influenced them to make the decisions that led to their deaths. For instance, in a TED Talk titled “The Brain in Love,” Helen Fisher explains how romantic love can cause one to lose their “sense of self” and not be able to “stop thinking about another human being” (Doc C). This describes how romantic love can possess one, causing them to make poor decisions they wouldn’t normally make.

One way Romeo’s thoughtlessness and immaturity causes the tragedy to occur is through his simplistic feelings of love.

Romeo barely knows Rosaline, but he has an infatuation with her that he calls love.

Relationships with other people affect our ability to act freely because we want to protect and defend these people. We have ties to our family, friends, and lovers. Often we will defend these people along with the things they do. Not because we necessarily agree with them, but because of the connection we share with the person. There are many examples in Romeo and Juliet.
In the play Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare depicts Romeo as a man who over exaggerates his feelings and acts purely based on them. The first scene where Romeo is mentioned is when we find the Montague family looking for him. He has wandered off sighing because of some sadness he feels and when Benvolio finds him he discovers that Romeo had left due to Rosaline rejecting his love. When Romeo describes how heartbroken he is over Rosaline he says “Why, such is love’s transgression./griefs of mine own lie heavy in my breast,/which thou wilt propagate, to have it pressed /with more of thine. This love that thou hast shown/doth add more grief to too much of mine own” (1.1.192-196).
Romeo and Juliet: A Renaissance Novel Romeo and Juliet belongs in the Renaissance movement due to its examples of individuals being different from their groups, rediscovery of the classical, and individuals deciding for themselves. One example of an individual being different from their group is seen when the nurse, Juliet, and Lady Capulet are speaking to each other in Act 1, scene 3. In this scene Lady Capulet has a difficult time silencing the nurse 's pointless talk while Juliet silences her with a single sentence. This shows that Juliet is not the same as her group because she easily shows her superiority over the nurse while Lady Capulet cannot. In the Renaissance Era women typically were seen as weak.
