When Juliet objected to Lord Capulet’s decision of marrying her to Paris, the nurse advised Juliet to do as her father said (Act III, scene v, lines 213-226). Juliet was already married to Romeo and refused to go against her wedding vows. Without the support from her nurse, Juliet goes to the Friar. He gives her a potion that allows Juliet to fake her death and live happily ever after with Romeo. The Friar and Juliet devise a plan, and the Friar sends a letter that informs Romeo of the plan.
In the play Romeo and Juliet, many conflicts had made the play very interesting and kept your attention. Romeo and Juliet had fallen in love but then found out that their families don't like each other. They both ended up dying. I feel as if Friar Lawrence was most responsible for the outcome in Romeo and Juliet because he married them and gave Juliet the potion. Many other things would have happened if Friar did not get involved.
Friar Lawrence: Unnoticed Importance In the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, many secondary characters play an essential role in the play. Friar Lawrence is one of the most important secondary characters in the play. He marries Romeo and Juliet, helps Romeo and Juliet grow in their love for one another, and eventually helps end the feud between the Capulets and the Montagues. He helps the characters in the play grow in a way they would not have on their own. Friar Lawrence affects the action of Romeo and Juliet by marrying Romeo and Juliet, helping Romeo escape Verona safely, and helping them reunite by giving Juliet a sleeping potion to fake her death.
How does Priestley use language to show how Shelia changes over the course of the play? In “An Inspector Calls” J.B.Priestley uses sarcasm and contrasting thoughts to present Sheila Birling's change during the play in order to reflect some of his own ideas. Sheila is one of the few characters in the play who changes the most in terms of views on social responsibility. Priestley was writing this play after a great time in change of the class system, after the Second World War, thus Priestley purposefully chose to present Sheila in this way to show the audience that her change should influence them to change their views too. Priestley presents Sheila at the start of the play as an immature girl who follows the tradition of her parents and expectations of daughters of that time.
This change of emotions is caused by her overpowering love for Romeo. Her intense love for Romeo gives her to forgive him, as she thinks of reasons to justify Romeo’s actions. From “That villain cousin would have killed my husband” and “My husband lives, that Tybalt would have slain, / And Tybalt’s dead, that would have slain my husband.”, she convinces herself that Tybalt would have killed Romeo even if he did not die first, hence showing her loyalties lie with Romeo, not Tybalt or the Capulets any longer. Therefore eventually she reaches a conclusion, “Back foolish tears, back to your native spring”, that “All this is comfort, wherefore I weep then?” that it should be a good thing that Tybalt is dead so that Romeo can live and they can be
William Shakespeare establishes Benedick’s character by using diction and imagery to show his changed viewpoint on marriage. Benedick is strongly opinionated and rarely ever let’s his guard down when it comes to feelings or love. After he overhears that Beatrice is in love with him, he ponders what to do. The characterization is established through diction, “And wise, but for loving me; by my troth it is not addition to her wit, nor no great argument of her folly, for I will be horribly in love with her!” (II.3.235-237). He is saying that is might not be wise for loving him, but he swears it won’t be stupid for he is going to be “horribly” in love with her.
o After listening to Brabantio and Desdemona, the Duke admitted that he wouldn't mind his daughter be married to Othello. He then deemed their matrimony to be valid and faithful. • What was Roderigo’s complaint, and what Iago’s reply to it? o Roderigo complained that he loved Desdemona. To this, Iago replied that he can help seduce Desdemona for him through the killing of Cassio.
Shakespeare echoes key thematic topics by the production of a series of lies that form intro deception at crucial moments. When Hero and Ursula exit and leave Beatrice alone, Beatrice declares, “…Benedick, love on; I will requite thee, taming my wild heart to thy loving hand” (III. i. 117-118). Beatrice expresses her acceptance of Benedick’s love but does not realize the love inside Beatrice exists artificially.
Lady Macbeth is seen as an ambitious and passionate woman at the start of the play. Shakespear portrays her as an all powerful and controlling women. A women fit to be a queen. However, lady Macbeths confidence and self esteem does not last for long. As the play progresses, lady Macbeth loses her evil facade and starts to show signs of strain.
The prince listens to Lady Capulet who wants Romeo killed "Romeo slew Tybalt, Romeo must not live." Prince Escales comes to the decision Romeo will not be killed because Tybalt slew Mercutio first so therefore Romeo is banished from Verona under pain of death, "Let Romeo hence in haste, else, when he is found, that hour is his last." Act 3 scene 1 is a very important scene in the play; it is the pivotal scene of the whole play and is greatly linked to act 5 scene 3. A very effective way that Shakespeare uses to create tension in the audience is to use a dramatic irony, where the audience knows something that the characters do not. This is used in the previous scene when Romeo and Juliet marry in secret by Friar Lawrence.
