Theme Of Hatred In Romeo And Juliet

I hate the word as I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee. Have at thee, coward!” (1.1.70-72), is a quote said by Tybalt before everyone started fighting. Tybalt was called the “Prince of cats” by Mercutio because Tybalt was very hot-tempered and quarrelsome. The first reason is that Tybalt is to blame is that he killed Mercutio and was killed by Romeo. The second reason is that Romeo was banished because he killed Tybalt.

Placing the Blame The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet truly becomes a tragedy once Mercutio, Romeo’s close friend, is killed by the hand of Tybalt. Multiple claims could be made regarding who is responsible for Mercutio’s death, but he himself is ultimately to blame. Once Tybalt approaches him, Mercutio begins to instigate. The heat at the time of this scene was hardly bearable, making matters worse as Mercutio quickly becomes irritable. He made insulting comments and aggravating remarks, pushing Tybalt to the point of fighting.

For instance, in Act 3 Scene 1, Romeo states, “In my behalf. My reputation stained/ With Tybalt’s slander- Tybalt that an hour” Tybalt’s lies damaged Romeo’s reputation. The people in Verona already thought of him, a Montague, as a nuisance because of the ancient grudge between their families. Now they think of him as worse because of the lies that escaped from Tybalt’s lips into the ears of the citizens. It became worse for Romeo when it was said that he was the one who had killed Tybalt.

Disobedience almost always has consequences, whether it’s in the form of not turning in homework and losing a few points, or breaking the law and serving jail time. In William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet, the punishment of disobedience results in the loss of loved ones, and even death itself. An important theme in the story is that disobeying authority can be very costly. This can be seen mainly through the actions of the characters Romeo, Juliet, and Juliet’s parents, Lord and Lady Capulet. Their actions irreversibly affect their lives and the lives of those around them.

Nevertheless, a violent feud at that which caused many misunderstandings and poor decisions to lead them down the path of blood at the families hands. Whereas, the true blood is in the hands of Romeo, the Capulets, and Tybalt. To begin with, the capulets are to blame for Romeo and Juliet's death because they didn't understand

When one of his men, Ted Lavender had left to go pee he was shot on the back of his head, at this moment Jimmy still was thinking about Martha and how he hated her but loved her for the distractions she was bring him:“He hated himself. He had loved Martha more than his men,and as a consequence lavender was now dead”(16). Martha has been a distraction for Jimmy and know he has to face the truth that he isn't fit to watch over his men. The love for Martha is irrevocable. Although Jimmy has killed a man from his repetitive thoughts I felt it was almost necessary for him, war is a miserable thing and what kept him going was the thoughts of Martha.

The theme of hate in Romeo and Juliet is expressed in many different ways but mostly around the rivalry of the Montague and Capulet families. Due to the long ongoing feud between the two families they lose the innocent lives of their children and friends. When Tybalt goes to kill Romeo but runs into Mercutio and ends up killing him shows the theme of hate if the two families weren’t fighting then they wouldn’t of ended up killing Mercutio who isn’t even apart of the Montagues or the Capulets so because of this hate in the play they lose the life of a good friend. The same goes for Romeo and Juliet’s death, if the family could've ended the feud then Romeo and Juliet wouldn’t of had to hide their love for each other and wouldn’t of had to die.

How much anger and rage can one human being have? Romeo and Juliet, a love story by William Shakespeare makes the sacrifice of love reach death. The conflict that began the rivalry was the Montagues and the Capulets in the city of Verona. Tybalt, a skilled swordsman, a tough, cocky, anti-Montague, was Juliet’s older cousin and a Capulet. He was always looking for a fight.

Mercutio curses both families under his last breath. Romeo griefs about the death of Mercutio and realises that his love towards Juliet has blind him in a way that weakened his masculinity. He challenges Tybalt into a duel and soon they both fight against each other. Tybalt is stabbed by Romeo and Benvolio command Romeo to leave since the Lord will let him executed if known that the Capulets and Montagues had fought against each other, again. Soon after Romeo flees the Prince, Escalus, enters the scene accompanied by many citizens, and the Montagues and Capulets.

Tybalt hates Romeo after this incident at the party and he never made a truce with Romeo about it. Basically, Tybalt had hatred, fighting, and death in his head at the time because he was angry at Romeo. Tybalt wanted to fight Romeo and he wanted to kill him. Romeo is to blame all in all for making Tybalt want to fight him. “Uncle, this is a Montague, our foe, A villain that is hither come in spite To scorn at our solemnity this night” is why Romeo is at fault for Tybalt's death because Romeo crashed the Capulet
