Romeo Reflection

1865 Words8 Pages

During this whole project, I have accomplished several things and I’m writing this to tell you guys about them. Since I read the three Shakespeare plays, I can got to read the classic types of literature that aren’t really used anymore. Which is really interesting for me because I can see how amazing his writing style is and why so many people admire his works. It’s not required by most teachers and I think it’s great that we can get introduced to Shakespeare before high school.
Out of all the characters in the three plays, I think I could relate to Romeo the most. The reason I can relate to Romeo the most is because I would do anything for the people I care about. Just like how Romeo kills Juliet’s cousin Tybalt to avenge Mercutio’s death. Another example would be like how he sacrifices himself for Juliet by killing himself when he sees her dead. I can relate to them because I wouldn 't hesitate to do something for my friends or family, no matter what it is. Another way I can relate with Romeo is because he is very impulsive. I’m also impulsive and act before I think most of the time. I end up getting into trouble when I act on impulse like Romeo. He gets in between Mercutio and Tybalt when they were fighting, causing Mercutio to be distracted and that gave Tybalt a chance to kill him. Additionally, he is my favorite character because he is quite comical. For instance, in the beginning of the play, he is going on and on about how much he loves Rosaline. But right when he

Once they have discussed their family’s hatred Romeo says that “my life were better ended by your love/than death prorogued lacking your love” (2.2.82-83.) This shows that Romeo would rather die loved by Juliet than die unloved. This carries out a similar theme as stated before, they would rather die than be apart.
