Romeo And The Impact Of Mercutio Death
1,290 words
Romeo and Juliet is one of the most well known
stories ever written. Shakespeare had know idea
just how famous this play would become years after
he was dead. Romeo and Juliet has had countless
essays written about it but few to none of them
have covered the angle I will discuss in this
paper. It is my belief that Romeo loved Mercutio,
as his best friend, as much as he loved Juliet.
Romeo may have had a greater love for Juliet but
had Mercutio not been killed romeo would not have
taken his own l...

Romeo And Juliet Love For Juliet

The older generation of people in the play can be
contrasted with the two young lovers. The lovers
portray themselves as rash and impulsive who are
filled deeply with emotions. Their elders, on the
other hand, have experienced more in life and are
probably wiser, thus they see things from a
different angle. This leads to the elders not
understanding the feelings of Romeo and Juliet,
hence causing conflicts, misunderstandings and
pain to arise. The older generation in this play

Romeo And Juliet Deaths Of Romeo
1,300 words
One view of the play sees Romeo and Juliet as
victims of fate. To what extent do you agree with
this? Having a complex plot, and too many deeply
involved characters, we cannot simply state that
Romeo and Juliet were purely victims of fate. The
tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet, and the play
itself, are anchored on three notions: that of
fate, chance and choice. Fate contributed, though
it was not the sole factor in the deaths of the
young lovers. The many? unstoppable? events,
