...Emma Breitenstein Miss Raub 9 Honors English 16 May 2014 The Utter Infatuation of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet Over time, writing has become exceedingly prominent, and throughout generations it has tremendously improved, leaving behind some of the best literature pieces in history. Since writing began, many great authors, playwrights, and poets have emerged, contributing to the literary society and producing countless works of literature, some that are still read today. A few notable composers that left behind numerous classics include Charles Dickens, Edgar Allen Poe, and William Shakespeare. William Shakespeare is considered to be the greatest playwright of all time due to his many great plays and his vast contribution to the English language. Some of his works include Hamlet, Othello, and the infamous Romeo and Juliet. Wrote in 1597, the tragic comedy tells the story of young Romeo and Juliet, who find themselves “in love at first sight”. Unfortunately for them, their love story goes awry when they learn their parents are mortal conflict between their parents, which ultimately caused their demise. Woven throughout the plot, many examples become present that show that the star-crossed lovers are not in love. It becomes clear Romeo and Juliet are merely infatuated with each other. The ill-fated couple focus only on each other’s physical appearances and are severely impulsive throughout the tragic story. “The play then impresses upon us the intensity of youthful love, at...

...Romeo and Juliet Love is one of the most powerful human experiences. It is what makes life most worth living and it has started wars and destroyed families. There are many forms in love; universal, romantic, religious, erotic, platonic, friendly, brotherly, familial love, etc. But, what was Romeo and Juliet’s type love? Romeo and Juliet's love is romantic love which is “the highest expression of spiritual longings, the source of feelings that reach an unparalleled depth and intensity. The key to this notion is the idea of love as a function of "sympathetic imagination," the capacity to enter into another's feelings, enabling the move toward a basic unity of self and other.”(Source D) In the play Romeo and Juliet, the theme of love was the reason for the many decisions made. William Shakespeare portrays just how serious, even dangerous, love can be and how a huge role it played throughout the story in time, decision making, and even death. In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, time plays a crucial part in Romeo and Juliet's love. Everywhere in the book everyone is always rushing. “Haste” is the word that was constantly used; meaning swiftness, speed, or quickness. You would even say that Romeo and Juliet’s marriage was rushed. For example: “Then plainly...

...Even though Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet suggests that teenagers can handle marriage and aren’t infatuated, much of today’s teens are mistaking love and marriage with infatuation. Although in Shakespearean times life expectancy was short and teens had to get started early in life, Romeo and Juliet’s relationship suggest otherwise: “‘Romeo, there dead, was husband to that Juliet,/ and she, there dead, that Romeo’s faithful wife’” (Shakespeare 5.3 241 - 242). Their relationship went to fast and over a couple days the couple ended up dead. Along with Friar Lawrence’s remark about their relationship, he also mentions, “‘So soon forsaken? Young men’s love then lies/ Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes’” (Shakespeare 2.3 71-72). As Friar Lawrence suggests Romeo’s love is only from his eyes and not truly love for a relationship. After all, only a day had passed after...

...A TEACHER’S GUIDE TO THE SIGNET CLASSIC EDITION OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE’S ROMEO AND JULIET By ARTHEA J.S. REED, PH.D. S E R I E S W. GEIGER ELLIS, ED.D., E D I T O R S : UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA, EMERITUS and ARTHEA J. S. REED, PH.D., UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, RETIRED A Teacher’s Guide to the Signet Classic Edition of William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet 2 INTRODUCTION William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is an excellent introduction to Shakespearean drama; teenagers can relate to its plot, characters, and themes. The play’s action is easily understood, the character’s motives are clear, and many of the themes are as current today as they were in Shakespeare’s time. Therefore, it can be read on a variety of levels, allowing all students to enjoy it. Less able readers can experience the swash-buckling action and investigate the themes of parent-child conflict, sexuality, friendship, and suicide. Because of the play’s accessibility to teenagers, able readers can view the play from a more literary perspective, examining the themes of hostility ad its effect on the innocent, the use of deception and its consequences, and the effects of faulty decision making. They can study how the characters function within the drama and how Shakespeare uses language to develop plot, characters, and themes. The most able students can develop skills involved in literary criticism by delving into the play’s comic and tragic elements and its classically...

...the characters of Romeo and Juliet in Act 1 The famous love story by William Shakespeare depicts the romance between two youngsters who ignorantly fall in love without realising the danger their affections contain. Romeo, the only son of Montague, unknowingly falls for the beautiful Juliet, who is the only daughter of Capulet, his father’s arch enemy. It is truly love at first sight. When we first meet Romeo, he is presented as a character that is insanely in love yet heartbroken and has been taken over by these feelings. However he does not seem himself as he says, “I have lost myself, I am not here, this is not Romeo, has some other where”. We can tell that this is not the real Romeo that we are seeing as he talks in the third person, therefore referring to himself as a whole other person. Shakespeare doesn’t allow Romeos true personality to appear as Romeo says that he is not himself at the moment. Also, this makes the audience wonder what kind of a person he truly is, because although he is depressed that Rosaline does not return his love, he is still saying how much he loves her. Romeo is also presented as confused through his mixture of feelings and the words that he uses. He uses many oxymorons’ such as, “oh heavy lightness, oh serious vanity...feather of lead.....” This shows that Romeo is extremely confused as the oxymoron show that he isn't thinking straight and maybe his feelings are perplexing him further. In a way, this presents Romeo as a hopeless case...

...Romeo and Juliet One of Shakespeare's most popular plays, Romeo and Juliet centers on the ill-fated love between the adolescent offspring of two leading, but warring, families of medieval Verona. Because of the feud between the families and the dictates of the day, which gave Juliet's father the right to promise her in marriage to any man of his choice, Romeo and Juliet's secret marriage is destined to bring tragedy both to the couple and to their families. Although critics disagree over the nature of the young couple's love for each other, most concur that themes of love and sexuality are central to the play's meaning. Scholars have focused on issues such as the nature and extent of Romeo and Juliet's love for each other, the social dictates and consequences of sexuality in medieval times, and the passage of the title characters from childhood to adulthood. Many commentators have examined the nature of Romeo and Juliet's love for one another, concentrating on its brevity and the extent to which it was lustful. Ronald B. Bond states that Romeo's love for Juliet is ocular and is based only on satisfying his senses. Bond claims that even in death their love is "devoted to the flesh" and that the play is about "the intensity of youthful love." However, Marjorie Kolb Cox distinguishes between the Nurse's interpretation of the romance in terms of lust and Juliet's stress on abiding love, maintaining that Romeo and Juliet's love does not fit the Elizabethan Courtly Love model...

...Post-modernism in Baz Luhrmann’s film adaptation of William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet: a comparison of two creative works from two different periods. In 1996, Baz Luhrmann directed “Romeo + Juliet”, a modern twist on the famous tragedy play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare in 1597, in which the main characters Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet where portrayed by Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes. While some praise the strange interpretation of the old tale, there are also those who condemn the rendition as destructive and disrespectful to the great work of Shakespeare. There will always be two sides to every story and this study will take that into consideration as well as comparing the two different yet similar works to see how post modernism has played a role in Luhrmann’s version of Romeo and Juliet. Postmodernism has been given many definitions. Some say it’s simply the outlook that the generation of late twenty first century has on life which entails the mistrust and dismissal of theories that existed before such as religion, ethics and law. According to these youths, the difference between right and wrong or what the meaning of life is based solely on that individual’s perspective. In film, the idea of postmodernism is somewhat similar as it’s an artist medium in which to undermine social norms and present one’s individual belief. The difference lies in that postmodernism in film concerns bringing in many aspects of popular culture to produce something...

You must be thinking that I’ve lost my mind and that my parents must’ve freaked out when they found out. However I haven’t told them yet and the reason for that is because a) I’m supposed to get married to Paris and b) Romeo and I are from feuding families that don’t get along at all and if my parents found out, especially my father, they would do anything in their power to separate Romeo and I.

Of course you know him, what the heck am I talking abo0ut. Anyway, he’s … I guess…. Well, he’s dead. When I heard about this I was shocked and scared because it’s my cousin and I love him. Moreover, there is more tragic news; it was Romeo that killed Tybalt! Romeo told me the full story of what happened. Basically, Tybalt killed Mercutio first and Romeo wanted revenge therefore killed Tybalt. I don’t believe what Romeo did was right nonetheless I still do understand him.
