    Romeo’s True Character Foils in literature are characters that contrast another character, in most cases the protagonist, in order to highlight specific qualities of the other character.

    Lady Juliet Capulet came to his cell for help because her beloved Romeo was banished. In an attempt to get them back together, the Friar gave young Juliet a potion that would put her into a sleep that appeared as death until Romeo came and then she would be awake. When giving Juliet the potion the Friar told her his plan, “Each part, deprived of supple government,/Shall, stiff and stark and cold, appear like death./And in this borrowed likeness of shrunk death/ Thou shalt continue two and forty hours,/And then awake as from a pleasant sleep./Now, when the bridegroom in the morning comes/To rouse thee from thy bed, there art thou dead./Then, as the manner of our country is,/In thy best robes uncovered on the bier/ Thou shalt be borne to that same ancient vault/Where all the kindred of the Capulets lie./In…

    In Conclusion, I think that Romeo is a young, inexperienced and impatient but loyal and brave boy. I think that his naivety plays a huge rule in this because love was taken as an extravagant feeling to have when it was not truly happy as the lovers can experience heartbreak and many other obstacles. It seems as if Romeo only more cautious and deliberate, his devastating ending could have been prevented (even though we have not finished the book yet). Amongst friends especially Mercutio, Romeo shows signs of his social and quick witted persona, even with his fond of verbal jousting that is mainly about sex. Lastly, Romeo is like every other male in the world who only unveils their true self to the people who they trust or who understand them.…
