Tybalt coveted to extrude Romeo out from the reception except Lord Capulet tolerated Romeo because of his umpteen lauds. During the courtship party Tybalt recognized Romeo, “by his voice, [and that he was] a Montague [... their] foe; A villain, that [was] hither come in spite [...] content thee, gentle coz, [leave] him alone. ‘A bears him like a portly gentleman [...] he shall be endured” (I.5.59-84). Romeo would never have been able to meet Juliet if Lord Capulet had let Tybalt eject him from their gathering. Lord Capulet essentially endorsed Juliet’s relationship with Romeo without even knowing it.
‘Good Capulet, which name I tender as dearly as my own.’ The audience know the reason why Romeo won’t fight Tybalt, which is because Romeo and Juliet are now married. ‘The reason that I have to love thee.’ The audience know that Romeo must love Tybalt because they are now related. The other characters did not know about the wedding and are confused by what Romeo is saying. The dramatic irony in this scene makes it such an intense scene to watch. It is also a significant scene because it leads to Mercutio fighting Tybalt and Mercutios death.
Nevertheless, it could be argued that the fact that she was prepared to go against convention infers that their relationship was based on true love, as she loved Othello enough to defy her father and was prepared to have an inter-racial relationship which were unusual in the 17th century, in fact racism is evident when; Iago calls Othello ‘thick-lips.’ Similarly the relationship between Catherine and Heathcliff in ‘Wuthering Heights’ seems happy and loving. True love is suggested by the spiritual nature in which the
iii. 83) He believed that Romeo was not truly in love with Rosaline, instead, he was just lovesick or infatuated. Similarly, Paris’s love for Juliet is just brought out of tradition. He assumed Juliet would be a good candidate for a wife and asks Lord Capulet for her hand. Though this was the tradition, it can be interpreted that he wasn’t fervent towards this marriage.
Shakespeare uses dramatic language to create a powerful impact on us, the readers. This is portrayed by the fact that Romeo is welcoming his unfortunate death in such a courageous way. “I have more care to stay that will to go, Come, death and welcome!” this also conveys a sense of innocence and playfulness in their marriage. However it is Juliet, who informs him that the bird “that sings so out of tune”, is a lark, not a nightingale and thus it are dawn and Romeo must flee. This image can also convey a sense of unease as we the audience understand the tragedy before it unfolds As Romeo hurries away, Juliet begs fate to bring him back to her quickly.
That is, except for the star crossed lovers, Romeo Montague, and Juliet Capulet. This theme of hate in this play written by Shakespeare, encourages us to think about how others hate can come between your own love. Romeo and Juliet took their lives as they could not live without each other. This love that has come to a tragic end has brought the two feuding families to peace. They see that their own hate for one another has ended with the death of the ones they love most, and that they cannot let this continue.
Although, marrying Romeo and Juliet secretly doesn’t follow society but Romeo trusts Friar Laurence and he is willing to marry them for Romeo. The Friar gives Juliet a plan to get out of the marriage with Paris: Hold, daughter! I do spy a kind of hope, Which craves as desperate and execution As that is desperate which we would prevent, If, rather than to marry County Paris, Thou hast the strength of will to slay thyself, Then is it likely thou wilt undertake A thing like death to chide away this shame, That copest with death himself to ’scape from it; And, if thou darest, I’ll give thee remedy. (4.1.68-76) Friar gives Juliet a vile where she will drink it and look dead for forty-two hours. He sends a letter for Romeo but it couldn’t be received by him because of a plague.
He was someone who saw that there was more to life then hatred. He states, “Here’s much to do with hatred but more with loves” (Act I, Scene 1, line 165) He knows that the fight is serious foolishness. (line 168) However, Romeo lets the force of illusionary love take hold of him which causes this young intelligent mind not to function to its full potential. From the very beginning of the play, before he even meets Juliet, he gives in to illusionary love with
He has chosen Demetrius and won’t let anything change his mind. Not even his daughters’ happiness. In comparison, in Romeo & Juliet, Lord Capulet doesn’t really tell Juliet she cannot be with Romeo. Her and Romeo just assume because the Capulet’s and the Montague’s hate each other. “‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy” (Romeo & Juliet,II.ii.
Character summary and analysis of Romeo The name Romeo has become nearly synonymous with “lover”, due to his experiences in Romeo and Juliet. The power of Romeo’s love, however, often obscures a clear vision of Romeo’s character, which is actually far more complex. In fact, Romeo’s relation to love isn’t that simple. At the beginning of the play, Romeo is in love with Rosaline, claiming her paragon of women, and is miserable at her indifference towards him. Romeo is a great reader of love poetry, and from the beginning we could see that his portrayal of love for Rosaline seemed that he was trying to act out what he had read about.
