Romeo sends the place and time of their wedding to Juliet. The nurse delivers the news to the waiting Juliet. Juliet is impulsive when she agrees to marry Romeo. Juliet’s nurse comes back from meeting Romeo and asks Juliet if she wants to marry Romeo. When Juliet responds with a yes, the Nurse says “Then hie you hence to Friar Lawrence’s cell” (II.iiiii.67).
In my opinion this archetype fits Romeo to a “tee” because Romeo embarked on a great task when he made the choice to get married to Juliet. Romeo went through a lot of work just to arrange a secret wedding. Romeo talked to Friar Laurence to convince him to do the ceremony and to find Juliet’s messenger nurse. All at the same time He got the task done, still knowing that He is in a great sense of danger. The last archetype I chose for Romeo was the fall.
It might have all been a coincidence. The events that conflict the idea of “star-crossed lovers” are their meeting and falling in love, their separation, and their deaths. The meeting of Romeo and Juliet could have been avoided easily. After hearing about a party at the Capulet’s, Benvolio suggests Romeo should go and he cheerfully responds, “I’ll go along, no such sight to be shown, But
Two star-crossed lovers go against their parent’s will since Juliet’s cousin is now dead and Romeo dreams that he should not go to the party, with that he ends up taking his own life. As soon as Romeo (Montague) and Juliet (Capulet) saw each other for the first time they fell in love instantly. When Romeo first meets Juliet he says, “Then move not while my prayer effect I take. Thus from my lips, my sin is pug’d” (1.5.104-105). After making this statement Romeo kisses her, he kisses her again shortly after.
Romeo and Paris have not only things in common, there are also differences between the two. Romeo changes his mind fast, that’s easily seen when Romeo is one day totally in love with Rosaline but the next day, actually the same night he is totally in love with Juliet. Paris on the other hand is constantly in love with Juliet, and doesn’t give up on her. Paris is also decent, he asks Lord Capulet polite if he can marry his loved-daughter. Romeo didn’t share his feelings for Juliet to anyone but Juliet and Friar Lawrence, the fact that he had contact with Juliet was only known by Romeo and his friends, Juliet the Nurse and Friar Lawrence.
When Capulet decided that “[Romeo] shall be endured [and to] take no note of him” at the ball. Had Capulet made Romeo go, Juliet would not have met Romeo. Capulet was at direct fault for Juliet and Romeo’s introduction. Also, Capulet is at blame because of the family feud. Without the feud, Juliet would be free to marry Romeo with no problem.
Romeo’s friend Benvolio wants Romeo to go with him to a party at the Capulet residence. “For my mind misgives some consequence, yet hanging in the stars” (Shakespeare 1012). Romeo means that his mind is filled with apprehension when he says that his mind misgives. He foreshadows the bad event that will begin at the party. He feels like this terrible event about to begin was caused by the stars.
Another example of dramatic irony in the play is in scene 2 of act iv Juliet agrees to marry Paris but she had a plan. So Juliet goes back to her house and tells her dad she wants to marry him and originally the
Providence uses the servant to reveal to Romeo that Rosaline, his love, will attend Capulet’s party. God manipulates the servant to ask Romeo to read the invitation names in order to ensure Romeo will attend the party. God manipulates Romeo to attend the Capulet’s because his destined lover, Juliet, will be present in the party. During the party, Tybalt sees Romeo and demands that Romeo, a Montague, must not be allowed in the party. God manipulates Capulet demands Tybalt to obey his will and leave Romeo alone.
Act 3 Scene 5 Analysis In Act 3 scene 5 Romeo and Juliet have just woken up. Romeo says he must leave but Juliet doesn't want him to go: "Thou need'st not to be gone." Shakespeare coveys a loving and caring atmosphere through his use of language in this scene: "believe me, love, it was the nightingale." Capulet decides Juliet will get married to Paris in three days time. It is important this is revealed before the scene as it creates dramatic irony because the audience knows such a significant detail of the play, yet Juliet doesn't, even though it's her getting married.
