The Montagues and Capulets are two of the richest and most powerful families in Verona. From the beginning of the play, it is apparent that the two families hate each other. From the leaders of the households, Capulet and Montague, to their servants, the families fight about everything. Surprisingly, it seems neither families knows why they fight. In the prologue, the chorus describes the feud as an “ancient grudge,” signifying that whatever originally started the argument, occurred a long time ago.…
However, when Paris asks for Lord Capulet’s consent to marry Juliet, Capulet says to wait until Juliet is older and she must somewhat like Paris first. This demonstrates that Lord Capulet cares about Juliet’s well-being. He wants Juliet to marry earlier now that Tybalt is dead to take her mind off of the death of her cousin, thinking that a big wedding would make her and all of the other Capulets happier. I understand that there is a big misunderstanding and that Lord Capulet thinks that Juliet is being extremely ungrateful about his decision, but I don’t think it’s okay to talk to your child that way and Lord Capulet should apologize. Also, although I don’t think that Lady Capulet would approve of Romeo, she should be able to accept their marriage because they are already married.…

Tensions in the city of Verona run high between the two rival houses of the Capulets and the Montagues.

Good morning/ afternoon. Today I’m here to persuade you to share my belief on who is ultimately responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. I believe, and before I conclude my speech I can guarantee you will too, that the feud is to blame for the deaths of our star-crossed lovers. This is because it causes massive fights, clouds people’s judgement and actions and makes Romeo and Juliet’s love forbidden.…

Is it possible for teenagers to fall in love, everyone has probably thought of that and wondered when teens say they have fallen in love, have they truly fell in love.most people think when they see teens kissing and holding hands that they are just going to be together for a year or two but is that really the case sometimes. At the start of the play it is fairly obvious that Capulet is over protective towards his daughter. Capulet is showing his feelings and emotions when he talks about how his ''child (Juliet) is yet a stranger in the world'' which shows that Capulet is a loving and caring person as well as being a great father. When Paris asks Capulet's permission to marry Juliet, Capulet stated that ''such as I love, and you…

According to the play, “O Romeo, Romeo, brave Mercutio is dead”…
Romeo and Juliet; everyone has heard about Shakespeare’s famous tragedy. When looking at the story of the star- crossed lovers, the question arises; who is to blame for their death? It’s not easy to answer because there are many fActors that would eventually allude to their demise. One could argue that fate or family are to blame. But I believe that the Capulet family is most to blame for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because they didn’t listen to Juliet, separated the lovers indefinitely, and caused the failure of the friar’s plan.…
