Who is to blame? Romeo and Juliet notes

WHO IS TO BLAME

“Romeo and Juliet” is a young couple’s play about love and hate, adolescent angst and death by Shakespeare. The continual feud between the Montague and the Capulet families results in ongoing conflict. There are many factors that are responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Friar Lawrence, fate and their parents can be held responsible for their tragic demise. But the lovers too, especially Romeo, makes some poor decisions. Miscalculation and accidents also play a part.

See some Sample paragraphs based on TEEL structure for text response.

THE FEUDING FAMILIES  

The feud is responsible for the tragic deaths. They are born into enemy families and it is expected that both marry a person from the same family. There is a lot of ill-feeling and hatred between the two clans. The feuding families creates a malignant context for the lovers. The play is about ‘The fearful passage of their death-mark’d love, And the continuance of their parents’ rage, which but their children’s end nought could remove. ’

When Juliet first meets Romeo she knows that their relationship is cursed because it is her fate to fall in love with a member of the enemy household. Juliet and Romeo are both determined to find a way to be together and get married despite their enemy status. Juliet regrets that Romeo is a Montague, but she asks, “What’s in a name”. She tells Romeo, “doff thy name … and take all myself.”

Marriage plans:

Lord Capulet insists on the marriage.  (Act 4/1 and Act 3/5)

Lord and Lady Capulet force her to marry Paris without asking her opinion because they assume that she will obey them. They misunderstand the extent and purpose of her grief following Tybalt’s death. They think it is simply unhealthy.

When she does not obey their orders, Lord Capulet gets angry “Hang you, you minx! You disobedient wretch! I’ll tell you now: Go to the church on Thursday, or never look on my face again!” He is very arrogant and shows little concern for Juliet’s feelings. He accuses her of being ungrateful. This makes Juliet extremely unhappy and gives her further reason to be disobedient. As a result she consults Friar Lawrence.

  MERCUTIO AND TYBALT

The continued brawling between clan members such as Tybalt and Mercutio directly leads to Romeo’s exile. BOTH Mercutio (Montagues) and Tybalt (Capulet) are troublemakers.  Shakespeare constructs the two figures as mirror images of their different families. Both and Mercutio incite hatred and inflame the tension between the two clans.  Both bear a grudge against each other. They both use words and phrases to deliberately offend each other.

Mercutio is just as provocative as Tybalt. When they meet in Act III, Mercutio states that “I care not” that Tybalt is coming and that they must prevent a fight. His language and his words are very inflammatory. In response to Tybalt he states “a word and a blow”.  He deliberately misunderstands/ misinterprets Tybalt’s words, “consortst” as an insult. Tybalt deliberately uses the word “consort’st” because of its double meaning.  As a result, Mercutio interprets this offensively. He is the one who draws his “fiddlestick” or sword first and prompts a fight.   He refuses to listen to reason from either Benvolio or Romeo.  He also refers to Romeo’s words of peace as “vile submission”.

Likewise, Mercutio hates Tybalt and provokes him to a fight when he asks if Tybalt, the “Good King of Cats”, is a coward, “Tybalt, you rat-catcher, will you walk” (3.1)

Tybalt is also provocative and greets Romeo with the phrase “here comes my man”.   Tybalt has a grudge against Romeo from the time he comes to the ball. He is stubborn, hot-tempered and provocative. Tybalt says he hates “peace” as he hates “hell, all Montagues, and thee.” He says to Romeo, “thou art a villain”, which refers to the fact that he is intended as an insult and refers to a man of inferior birth, as a peasant.  He tells Romeo, “turn and draw”.

He also feels slighted that Lord Capulet seems to protect Romeo and state that he is a “virtuous” and “well-govern’d youth” with a good reputation. This seems to fuel Tybalt’s sense of inferiority, and, feeling slighted and aggrieved, he is constantly looking for an outlet to vent his anger on Romeo.

He derails R’s attempts to mediate between the clans.  He exacerbates and aggravates the tension between the clans. He refers to Romeo as his “man” which is a pun on servant; it is demeaning. He states that he cannot excuse the “injuries that thou hast done me”.

Tybalt refuses to take Romeo seriously, when he states that he “loves thee better than thou canst devise”. He goes against the Prince’s orders when he provokes the brawl and kills Mercutio, thus provoking Romeo.  He is so hot-tempered that he takes advantage of Romeo’s attempts to restrain Mercutio and stabs him. He recklessly and impulsively stabs Mercutio thus precipating a chain of action that leads to the death of both Romeo and Juliet.

When Romeo kills Tybalt, Romeo must flee. Because of his fiery nature, he becomes the catalyst for the ensuring tragic events.  He lacks Romeo’s charitable attitude and peaceable nature.

Both Tybalt and Mercutio play a major role in Romeo’s downfall. They refuse to settle for peace. They deliberately use inflammatory words. They both want to fight.

ROMEO has a tendency to be impulsive and this contributes to his exile . Even Friar Lawrence tries to warn him that it is not good to be impulsive. Friar Lawrence is shocked that Romeo has so quickly changed his affection from Rosaline to Juliet. However, Romeo does display his love for Juliet when he tries to restrain Tybalt and states that contrary to expectation he “love(s) thee better than thou canst devise”

After Tybalt kills Mercutio, he decides that he must defend his honour and no longer shows control and restraint. He imagines that his love has weakened him. He worries that Juliet’s “beauty hath made me effeminate” and is determined to change this. He says let “fire-eyed fury be my conduct now”. Only when it is too late, he realizes how foolish he has been. He realizes he is “fortune’s fool” and doomed by their feuding families. Sadly, Romeo also panics when he sees Juliet in the casket.

THE TRAGEDY is a catalogue of errors originating in Fr L’s ill-hatched plan.

• it was too sophisticated and risk-laden (despite its worthy aims) and ends up with disastrous consequences
• he encourages Juliet to deceive her parents; she fakes death which is a very upsetting experience for her parents.
• F L does not have any back-up plans; Friar John was waylaid by authorities and FL fails inform Balthasar who hurries to tell Romeo about Juliet’s death.
• R ends up distraught and unable to think clearly: Romeo is too young and impulsive to evaluate the situation when it backfired

  Ill-hatched plan 

Friar Lawrence’s scheme is not well planned and is perhaps too sophisticated for the young lovers. Juliet blindly places her faith in Friar Lawrence and when the plan backfires both Romeo and Juliet are too young, naive and innocent to think of other remedies.

Friar Lawrence instigates the dangerous plan that has disastrous consequences, although love and peace are his main aims. He states that “ this this alliance may so happy prove to turn your households’ rancour to pure love’ .  Friar organises the risk-laden scheme which seeks to avoid Juliet’s hasty marriage to Paris. (Also he knows that Juliet is threatening to kill herself if he does not find a solution.)  The plan appears simple, but it is full of risks.

It encourages Juliet to deceive her parents.  She feigns death which leads to disaster upon the lack of communication with Romeo.  Friar Lawrence’s scheme is not well planned and is perhaps too sophisticated for the young lovers. Juliet blindly places her faith in Friar Lawrence and when the plan backfires both Romeo and Juliet are too young, naive and innocent to think of other remedies.

He does not have any back-up plans. Friar John is held up by the authorities. He is unable to give Romeo the letter about Friar Lawrence’s scheme because he and another monk were delayed by the authorities and quarantined. (“Where the infectious pestilence did reign, Seal’d up the doors, and would not let us forth”.)

Friar Lawrence fails to inform, Romeo’s servant Balthasar, who hurries to Romeo with the news that Juliet is dead. He begs Romeo to show patience, which may have led to a different outcome. Pale and wildly impetuous, Romeo decides to go straight to her tomb.

When he learns about her “death” Romeo rushes to buy poison. In front of Juliet’s body he remains with their memories. He remembers the memory of her kiss: “Death, that hath suck’d the honey of thy breath.” After his death by “true apothecary”, Juliet wakes up and kills herself with a “dagger”

The rivalry between the M and C were the main reason for the death of Romeo and Juliet. Discuss.

Sample paragraphs. 

The simmering brawl between warring clan members such as Tybalt and Mercutio directly precipitates the chain of tragic events that leads to Romeo’s exile and the lovers’ death. Shakespeare constructs the two figures as mirror images of their different families which bear an ancient grudge that is difficult, or impossible, to resolve. Both Mercutio, a Montague,  and Tybalt, a Capulet, are clearly troublemakers; both are antagonistic towards the Prince’s decree that … “if you ever disturb our streets again, your lives shall pay the price of it”.   Initially at the masked ball, Tybalt is warned by Capulet to bury his resentment, but instead he is left smouldering from what he feels as an offensive intrusion by a Montague. During the later street encounter, Mercutio is just as provocative as Tybalt. When they meet in Act III, Mercutio states that “I care not” that Tybalt is coming and that they must prevent a fight. Shakespeare constructs the scene in such a way to show how their continued enmity obstructs reconciliation and peace. He employs puns that are used by both Tybalt and Merc to inflame the situation. For example, Mercutio deliberately misunderstands/ misinterprets Tybalt’s words, “consortst”, used because of its double meaning, as an insult. M is the one who draws his “fiddlestick” or sword first and prompts a fight.   He refuses to listen to reason from either Benvolio or Romeo.  He also refers to Romeo’s words of peace as “vile submission”.   Likewise, Mercutio hates Tybalt and provokes him to a fight when he asks if Tybalt, the “Good King of Cats”, is a coward, “Tybalt, you rat-catcher, will you walk” (3.1) Eventually the death of M and then Tybalt leads to Romeo’s exile and the ill-hatched plan of Friar Lawrence.

If Mercutio and Tybalt act as catalysts, Shakespeare also depicts Lord Capulet as a contributing partner to the tragedy owing to the misuse of his power and authority. His misguided arrogance and despotic nature seal her fate owing to the hasty order to marry Paris, in complete disregard of her wellbeing. Whilst there are some redeeming features to Capulet such as his conciliatory attitude displayed towards Romeo at the masked ball, Shakespeare does place considerable emphasis on his unreasonable order to hastily marry Paris. He clearly misunderstands Juliet’s wishes and the purpose of her grief following Tybalt’s death.   Shakespeare depicts Tybalt as clearly sharp despotic ordering her to marry. “Hang you minx …” (quotes…) Shakespeare continues to show how the misuse of his authority and power, which could have been used to solve the feud, instead contributes to the tragic chain of events that leads to the death of the lovers

Whilst most members of the feuding families have a direct influence on the outcome, Friar Lawrence’s ill-hatched plan has an indirect influence on the hasty deaths of the lovers as Romeo is bound for exile. However, in the scheme of the play, Shakespeare would suggest that his role, whilst unfortunate, is less blameworthy because of his motives to secure peace. Also, he acted in the best interests of the lovers aware of the depth of their feeling.  (Quotes for F L …) However, the plan was nevertheless too sophisticated and risk-laden to withstand the degree of bad luck and unfortunate circumstances. …   the passionate lovers took drastic and impetuous measures.

This brief essay presents the idea that in Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare offers us a window in time through which we can witness an event of immense impact on the world of late medieval and early Renaissance Europe – an event that changed values, authority, religion, government – in short, an event that altered the course of Western intellectual, moral, political and economic history forever. We feel its effects even today. Henry VIII’s declaration of total sovereignty in matters of both Church and State, as supreme head of the church, forced upon his people a radical, devastating choice. They had to choose between their faith, with the Pope as head of the Church, and their country, with their loyalty and allegiance given only to their King. Abandonment of the former would lose them their immortal souls. Disobedience to the latter would lose them their property and very likely their heads. Henry forced his people to accept a new religion, under the guise of reformation. The story of the Montagues and the Capulets can be seen, in brief, as an allegory of the continuous warring of the Church and the State, respectively, and the resulting dislocation and relocation of the soul and body of humankind (or the concepts thereof) in the new combination created by Henry VIII.

Shakespeare Quarterly

Thomas Honegger

Published in Journal of Historical Pragmatics 7 (2006):73-88. Abstract: The joint sonnet of the two lovers-to-be at the Capulet feast towards the end of the first act is rightly regarded as the dramatic and poetic climax of the first part of the play. Yet it constitutes, from an interactional point of view, merely a first move and the declarations of love proper occur only later in the orchard scene of the second act. This article explores the complex negotiations that precede the actual confessions of love and investigates how Shakespeare modified his rather simplistic source text, Arthur Brooke’s Romeus and Juliet (1562), in order to exploit the full interactional and dramatic potential of the situation.

International Journal of Research

Chung Chin-Yi

Romeo and Juliet think the grandness of their passion is enough for them to defy their parents will but the fault in their stars is that the environment around them grows so hostile to their passion as a series of events involving the conflict between the two families escalated by the slaying of Mercutio and Tybalt will lead them to take their own lives to escape the violence. It is thus futile for this pair of teenage lovers to defy providence and their parents’ will as it ends in their own destruction. Romeo and Juliet is then a play about idealized metaphysical love that fails to realize itself in the material world because it is fallen and hostile to their desire.

Numerous researches state that Shakespeare used three sources to write his tragedy: a novella Giulietta e Romeo by Matteo Bandello, written in 1554; a story Il Novellio, by Masuccio Salernitano; and the Historia Novellamente Ritrovata di Due Nobili Amanti, written by Luigi Da Porto.

Who Is To Blame for Romeo and Juliet’s Death (Essay/Paper Sample)

Who is to blame for Romeo and Juliet’s death

The play written by William Shakespeare “Romeo and Juliet” highlights the struggle between two young lovers. Romeo and Juliet belonged to two feuding families and are forced to keep their love affair secret. The two lovers ended up dying due to an unexpected turn of events. Romeo and Juliet commit suicide after Friar Laurence plan failed. Romeo and Juliet’s parents are to be blamed for their deaths, their parents did not make any attempt to resolve their differences. That’s why Romeo and Juliet preferred not to inform their parents. However, one person who contributed more their deaths is Friar Laurence, he caused this tragedy by getting involved in the process as their advisor. Romeo and Juliet trusted him with their secrets, throughout their lives, he plays significant roles in bringing the two together. However, he made a hasty decision in an attempt to rescue Juliet from getting married to Paris.

His plan did not materialize resulting in the death of the two lovers. The Friar conducted the secret wedding even though he was aware that the wedding would cause more problems. Friar Laurence did not review the negative impact of such marriages. Instead, he had some slight hope that the marriage would end the long-standing feud between the Montague family and the Capulet family.

In his word ” this alliance may so happy prove /turn your households rancor to pure love.” According to the statement, The Friar’s intentions were good, but he did not carefully review the possible outcomes of his plans. The fact that he agrees to marry Romeo and Juliet secretly instead of encouraging them to confront their families shows how he set their death in motion.

The Friar failed in executing his plan by not getting his message to Romeo in time to make him aware of the plan. Instead of sending Friar John, The Friar could have taken his time to meet Romeo face to face and explain to him all the details of his plan. Sending Friar John was a mistake because he ended up being held up by the authorities because of the ongoing quarantine. Friar Laurence had many options, but failed to utilize them, for example Balthasar was Romeo’s servant who was reliable, and Friar Laurence could have used him to deliver the message in time.

Both Romeo and Juliet were teenagers blinded by love, while Friar Laurence was old enough to advise them appropriately and to help them make the right decision.  The fact that the friar lied to Capulet family, his advice and being involved in Juliet’s false death and his final plan to reach out to Romeo with his intentions, show how he set the motion of death for the two by making irrational decisions.

Essay on ‘Who Needs to Be Blamed for Romeo & Juliet’s death?’

It is no wonder that Romeo and Juliet is one of the most popular plays ever written. William Shakespeare’s tragic tale has been retold over and over again by different writers, directors, and producers. The story continues to be popular because it shows how two young people were deeply in love but separated by their families, who viewed each other as enemies. In addition, Romeo and Juliet are unique because both characters die at the end, giving them a sense of immortality as they live on in our hearts forever.

There is always someone to blame for bad things happening in the world. When reading William Shakespeare’s well-known play Romeo and Juliet, many individuals have different ideas regarding who is to blame for the famous tragedy. No one strikes as the apparent cause for their death.

In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, we find ourselves in a world where both main characters, Romeo and Juliet, commit suicide. Some critics believe Capulet was at fault, while others blame Paris or Friar Laurence. In addition, others question whether it was only Romeo at fault or whether he could have done anything differently if he had wanted to escape what was happening around him.

What to Start with?

The feud between the families in Verona had been going on for a long time. Still, other factors contribute to the two families’ hatred towards each other, including Romeo’s love for Rosaline or Juliet’s refusal to marry Paris out of her choice rather than being forced into it by her parents.

Should it be the interfering force? Friar Laurence or even Juliet’s parents? While many blame Romeo for the pair’s misfortune, others believe that Capulet was to be blamed for not saying a word to Paris about how his daughter was already married. Even though William Shakespeare wrote Romeo and Juliet in such a way that both families are depicted as wrong, some believe Romeo’s family is more at fault than his lover’s.

For instance, Friar seems like he was an important person who could have prevented the lovers’ tragic end by marrying them before they got into trouble with Lady Capulet and Lady Montague. However, this would not have been attainable if he had not helped them when they were still living with each other’s parents because they would have been able to elope without any intervention from outsiders.

The initial reason for Friar Lawrence’s involvement in the tragedy is that he marries Romeo and Juliet. Despite being aware of the potential outcome, the Friar chooses to marry them. The Friar knows that getting married quickly might have several negative effects on the lovers, and he could face significant consequences if the two families learn about the marriage.

Romeo and Juliet had a stronger love because they were married, which gave them more motivation to commit suicide at the play’s end. The fact that Friar Lawrence instructs Juliet to use the sleeping remedy is another factor to consider. The Friar does not believe what can go wrong if he gives it to her.

Also, it wasn’t just these two but Lord Montague who should take responsibility for what happened. He could’ve prevented his son’s death by telling him how things were going down between both families before it escalated into something unmanageable.

Disagreements Between Warring Families

The rivalry between the Capulets and Montagues is at the heart of Romeo and Juliet’s story. In this play, we see how far people will go to honor their family name, even if it means causing pain for others.

It’s a longstanding family feud that extends over generations and includes everything from petty arguments to violent fights. Still, it also has political ramifications affecting the entire Verona city. The two families control a large portion of the city’s social and political power and want to continue expanding their influence over more people.

The Capulets and Montagues compete not just over resources like land or money but also for status in their community. If you’re seen as having the upper hand in your dispute with another family, it will bring you higher standing among other citizens of Verona. It was an important part of Italian society at that time: everyone wanted to be respected by everyone else in town.

The Roles of Mercutio and Tybalt

Mercutio and Tybalt are bright characters who work as foils to each other in the play, but they play dramatically different roles in this classic tragedy. They share an air of mystery about them, and their quickness to action marks them both as hot-headed characters.

Tybalt challenges Romeo to a duel. To protect Romeo’s reputation, Mercutio intervenes. It is important to remember that despite being against the law, dueling was popular in William Shakespeare’s England. Young men, especially those from the aristocratic class, felt compelled to defend their honor and the honor of their friends and kin at all costs. Because of this obsession with glory, simple slights may easily escalate into deadly combat. Early modern England historian Lawrence Stone observes that “tempers were short and weapons easy to hand.”

However, Tybalt moves from the hostile territory into outright villainy when he kills Mercutio. When Tybalt kills Mercutio, he causes Romeo’s transformation from a passionate lover to a revenge-driven man bent on destroying anyone in his path. In this way, Romeo’s killing of Tybalt leads directly to Romeo’s banishment from Verona.

Mercutio is the provider of comic relief throughout the play. His language is always powerful and creative. Mercutio’s humor paints him as a reckless character who doesn’t think things through, so he starts a fight with Tybalt, ending in his death.

The Consequences of Romeo’s Actions

​​Romeo and Juliet is the most prominent love story in history. Unfortunately, it’s also a tragedy — not just because the two lovers die at the end. The story is full of doomed decisions and misunderstandings that lead to terrible consequences for Romeo, Juliet, and everyone around them. You might wonder how this could happen when so many people tried to stop it from happening. While some events occur beyond their control, others result from poor choices.

In the play, we see Tybalt and Romeo’s relationship as one of hate. Tybalt has challenged Romeo to a duel — an act punishable by death. However, when Mercutio arrives at the fight scene, he insults and provokes Tybalt even more, causing him to retaliate against Mercutio with his sword.

Before Romeo had an opportunity to react, Tybalt had already killed Mercutio. This event caused great calamity in Verona because it was an act of great dishonor for one family member to kill another.

Misunderstanding Between Romeo and Juliet

When Juliet finds out about Romeo’s exile, she is astonished. She decides to fake her death to flee and be with him, which is another surprising error of judgment. She doesn’t even wait to tell Romeo about her plan.

The stars are frequently mentioned in this drama as a symbol of destiny or the absence of human free will and control. These allusions confirm the notion that Romeo and Juliet had little control over the direction their lives would go in. Both their meeting and their demise were predetermined. The Prologue refers to the two main characters as “star-crossed lovers,” referring to couples destined by the stars.

Juliet poisons herself with the sleeping potion Friar Lawrence gave her to fake her death. Romeo fails to learn that Juliet is simply asleep because of the plague epidemic in Mantua. Instead, Romeo believes that Juliet is dead and runs to Juliet’s tomb and meets Paris there.

Romeo kills Paris and then commits suicide in Juliet’s tomb just before she awakens, giving in to the circumstances that have cast him in his tragic role. Juliet uses Romeo’s blade to stab herself after she discovers him dead. The lovers accept their fate by taking their own lives. They leave the world that has kept them apart at the same time.

When Montague and the Capulets enter the tomb, Friar Lawrence explains everything to them after discovering Romeo, Juliet, and Paris are all dead. After the Prince declares that “All are punished,” Capulet and Montague plan to put up golden statues of Romeo and Juliet. Finally, with a rhymed couplet, the Prince summarizes the entire play.

There are a bunch of things that need to be clarified now. “For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo.” The Friar’s poor advice and all the misunderstandings that have occurred become clear. At this moment, everything that could go wrong does. Dramatic irony plays a significant role in building tension at this moment.

Shakespeare effectively created a tragedy that Sophocles defined; by the play’s conclusion, you feel a deep feeling of loss and sympathy for everyone involved. Early in the play, it is evident that the couple is destined by fate, and despite their best efforts, they are unsuccessful in their desperate battle with destiny.

What Conclusion Can We Make?

​​Romeo and Juliet’s death was caused by a mistake. William Shakespeare used this technique to see how similar Romeo and Juliet were and how different they were from their families. We also see what happens when people put too much pressure on someone else to conform to fit into society’s standards of what is right or wrong.

The conclusion we can draw from this play is that Romeo and Juliet are both too young to understand the consequences of their actions. As a result, they’re also too impulsive to think things through properly. Their love for each other is a fatal attraction because it brings them together and creates problems that lead to their deaths. This tragic love was inevitable because the two were so young and didn’t realize what they were getting into.

The play is full of complex issues. Romeo and Juliet are about love, hate, fate, and destiny. It’s also about family conflicts that caused the deaths of many people. This play can be read with many different conclusions because it has many important topics.
