Romeo and Juliet

    Capulets vs. the Montagues
    Where is art thou Romeo?
    Biting thumbs? The language of the time is verry different.
    Is an early scene of violence foreshadowing something?
    There exists no general explanation for their fight- all we know is the two groups do not like each other.

    "My only love sprung from my only hate! / Too early seen unknown, and known too late!"
    Romeo and Juliet Meet at the Ball
    They are wearing masks to hide their identities? Do they become their costume or do they become people without a real identity?

    "Deny thy father and refuse thy name" in this line, Juliet is decrying the curse which plagues their famies. "wherefore art thou Romeo?"

    "These violent delights have violent ends / And in their triumph die like fire and powder" SPoken by Friar Lawrence, we get a bit of foreshadowing that the joy the feel then by end tragically.

    Death.
    Mercutio is killed by Tybalt... Tybalt is killed by Romeo.
    What happens now?
    "And so, good Capulet—which name I tender / As dearly as my own—be satisfied" is absolutely hilarious because Tybalt has no idea he has married Juliet
  • A3S3

    A3S3
    Romeo has been banished from the city.
    "There is no world without Verona walls, / But purgatory, torture, hell itself" is indicative of Romeo's banishment from the city. Being away from Juliet is like being in purgatory.
    What will Juliet do?
    It seems as if Romeo and Juliet are spitting images of each other, it makes me wonder whether they had any chance of escaping their fate.

    Julet's "Death"
    Juliet devises to take a plan so she may fake her death before rejoining with Romeo.
    Lord Capulet says "Death is my son-in-law" and I thought this was interesting as Romeo very well could be considered a dead-man walking.
    I've noted all throughout just common "death" is present, real and fake.

    The Capulets and Montagues Rejoice in Death.
    All through out, death has devided people and factions, but I find it interesting that in the final act it brought the two most hated families together.
    Romeo finds juliet "dead" and so he kills himself, Juliet follows soon after.
