Romeo & Juliet Wrap Up Paragraph

Who is responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet?

I think it was everyones fault that Romeo and Juliet died. The priest, the families, Romeo, Juliet, the mail person, the mother, the father, and Romeo's spy. The priest because, he is the one who gave Romeo the poison that Romeo later used to kill himself he also gave Juliet the poison to knock her out and told her that "Me and Romeo will be there as you wake as if from a sleep" (I believe that is correct) . The Families because They fought and made Romeo and Juliet stay hidden, which went downhill and both they’re children died in the end for each other, over love and hate. Rome's fault because he let rage take over him and killed Juliet's cousin. Juliet's fault because when she woke up and instead of living on with her life she killed herself to die along with Romeo. The mail person because he didn't rush the letter to Romeo. Juliet's mother because she was forcing Juliet to marry the prince. Juliet's father because he yelled and hit her that pushed her to run away. Lastly his little spy because he rushed to check on Juliet, she was in her coma stage, the boy rushed and told Romeo so Romeo rode to her grave and past the mule with the letter. It was other fault to, but there to much to say in this paragraph! It is important to a lot of people according to how many people have watched this movie.

Romeo and Juliet – Cause of Deaths

Romeo and Juliet die of both fate and human error. Human error is one the reason because when Romeo was sent the letter they priest didn't rush it to him, and that the priest didn't think that this would happen. Juliet was human error because she could have just ran away with him and not fake her own death, also in the end she killed herself for him. Fate gave them speed and sent them right past the letter saying what was going to happen. Also fate was the one to push the priest to take longer, and got their in little time. Fate was the one to wake her up at the moment that Romeo kills himself. Fate brought together the families in the end, so the priest got what he wanted.

Romeo and Juliet – Rage

A lot of bad things can happen from the emotion of rage. It can bring sadness, fights, death, and banishments, or executions. This happens in the play Romeo and Juliet, what rage brought to them was a death of a friend and a death of a cousin. Romeo was banished for killing a Capulet, for killing a Montague, Romeo when found was going to be killed. Juliet was crushed by this and the fighting and the rage brought her deep sadness, she and Romeo had to part. Romeo had to leave the city just to live for Juliet. This is just like real life, because when kids on campus get into fight, other friends get mad anbd try to fight the other person!

Romeo and Juliet – True or Forbidden Love

Romeo and Juliet's love, I believe is not true. Its more lust and desire, because they want to see each other and when they do they let loose. Thats not close to true love, I think they love the idea of being together when they know that they can't see each other. I also think that Juliet's love for Romeo is more love then the thought of loving the enemy. Their love is not real because if they were they would have told their parents, or when they sneak around to meet each other they would just be together in the space, air, I think they would feel the air change and that they were the only two in the world. I don't think their love will last at all.

Romeo and Juliet – Arranged Marriages at SPA

In Romeo and Juliet, Juliet is engaged to Prince, if Tia was to be able to engaged us to each other I would be mad. We wouldn't want to marry each other, maybe. We might not love each other or even know each other. We don't know if that person is truthful or even reliable. They could be a total jerk and what if we like the same gender and they were the other gender?! A lot of things could happen is she could marry us to each other, some of us would be happy some would be mad, it would be crazy and unfair. I would want to love someone before I ever married them!

Romeo and Juliet – Love at First Sight

The problem with Romeo and Juliet falling in love at first sight is that, they were from the fighting families. Romeo should have never sneaked into the ball, where he saw Juliet. They also aren't allowed to talk to each other; while they do talk they are betraying their families. Juliet is supposed to be married to another guy and she doesn’t love him. Juliet wants to be with Romeo and Romeo wants to be with Juliet. This connects to modern life because when people are in love, sometimes they can’t be together because of family problems or because they just can’t be because of other people.

Romeo and Juliet – Conflict in Verona and San Diego

Some conflicts that happen in Verona, in Romeo and Juliet's time is just like any modern conflict. They fighting each others families or groups, like gangs for example. They also fall in love with someone that they don't really know, like at San Pasqual Academy. They also have their parents trying to make them marry other people, or do anything they want. For all these, Juliet and Romeo's families are in a feud, Romeo is also in love with a girl, and Juliet is supposed to be married to a older guy that she doesn't know. It connects because we see that around us every where even at San Pasqual Academy!

Control or Fate?

I believe that people do not control their own fate, because they can only have control of their actions. For example, Obama did not become president by fate, but by the peoples vote or actions. Another example is that when we drive and crash into something it’s because they hit the brakes, they were going to fast, or they panicked. Fate is not under anyone’s control, fate makes people fall in love or makes them die. Sometimes only its up to fate, because people could do something to lead up to that. In the play “Romeo and Juliet” I think it is both fate and choices, because it was fates that lead him to her and his choice to kill himself.

Title: Romeo & Juliet Before Paragraph

I don't know much about Romeo and Juliet, and I am kind of excited to learn about it. What I do know is that in the end Romeo kills himseld for Juliet. She wasn't really dead, he just thought she was, so when she woke up and saw him dead she also killed herself. That all happened because of the father who didn't want them to be together. I think it is just messed up that the father wouldn't let love be love.

  1. Why did Romeo think Juliet was dead?
  2. Why didnt't the father let them be thogether?
  3. When did this all take place?
