Lord Capulet

It is so far off from normal life that one cannot help but remember it. An example of a powerful scene is when Tybalt, a member of the Capulets, kills Mercutio, a member of the Montagues, and Romeo kills Tybalt. The two men die less than a half an hour apart. It happens so quickly and seems so overdone that one is shocked by it. This makes a reader pay attention because of the quickly moving…

If it’s going against your partner because you’re being manipulative or going against your partner because you have mistaken something for what it’s not ,what are you going to do? In the play “ Othello” by William Shakespeare not only does the relationship take a turn for the worse, but trust is manipulated and broken throughout the play. Othello and Iago both end up killing their wives and then end up dying themselves. The two relationships were so different in the beginning but turned out…

scene at all. This comes to indicate that the conflict affects all members of society. 2) In the stage notations, it is stated that the servants of the Capulet house, Sampson and Gregory carry onto stage their swords and bucklers. This suggests that, as Verona is an area of such conflict (due to the tension between the Montagues and the Capulets), and that violence has been known to break out in public, the residents feel the need to carry weapons on their person for defensive reasons. The fact…

Many people know famous Shakespearean works like Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, or Othello, but another famous play is Twelfth Night. I originally read this play in my Theatre class, and then I later attended the production put on by students at UNI. The plot of the story consisted of a love triangle between the characters Viola, also known as Cesario; Orsino, a nobleman; and Olivia, a wealthy lady. Viola disguised herself as Cesario in order to earn money since it was against social norms for…

Tybalt, who killed his friend. The reason that i like the scene is the vibe, the fact that Romeo revenged his friend, and the fact that romeo was a true to his buddy. The moral to me is not letting your emotions rule your life, that is what the Capulets and Montagues let happen when the rivalry took over their lives. A lesson from this is don’t just follow your heart, use your brain too, if you don’t you will do some very stupid things. Another lesson is to WAIT to get married, not meet…

The characters in “The Dead” are not actually living at all, as one can see in the narrator’s descriptions of the events and traditions that are continuously brought up, and in how those and the characters are predictably and monotonously described. The first example of monotony is the mention of the dance, “It was always a great affair, the Misses Morkan’s annual dance,” (21). The description of the dance indicates that it has been going on for “Years and years” for “as long as anyone could…

we see that the clever use of music, montage of images, quick succession of shots, and effective camera angles that he uses quickly transports us into a more modern day drama. We also see the two corporate buildings with Montague on one side and Capulet on the other side of the street; the buildings symbolizes the divide between the two families. Luhrmann's version is very unique, that it brings Romeo and Juliet into modern day. While the 1968 film directed by Zeffirelli showed what it was like…

Love may not be for everyone; however, everyone can agree that love is wonderful, but is it worth everything? For some they believe the society should put everything aside for love. Even when the love is working so against starcrossed lovers. When reading of such an unfortunate tale authors often use juxtaposition and all its different components to indirectly characterize a character. By indirectly characterizing a character shakespeare shows the thoughts of Romeo and Juliet, the two lovers…

At the end of the play, both Romeo and Juliet are dead. Now there are a lot of things that happens in this play that caused their death like ad decisions and bad parents that showed no care sometimes , but in my opinion the one person that's most to blame is Friar Lawrnce. I also think that Mercutio could be blamed but not as much as Friar Lawrence. Also the nurse could've been to blame. The reason why I think Friar Lawrence was the one that should be to blame is because he kept the whole…

Cliche romance tales have been around for centuries, portraying life lessons and providing entertainment for the public. Two tales stand out above the rest, the stories of The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare and Pyramus and Thisbe by Ovid are excessively akin, by the thought that their love was doomed by fate from the start. Nevertheless the stories have vast differences, such as the details about the length of time that the young, naive couples knew each other. Both young…
