Romeo And Juliet Tragic Essay, Research Paper

It is known that in Shakespeare?s tragedies main characters die in the end,

and in his comedies people marry. Since Romeo and Juliet are a tragedy, Romeo

and Juliet are going to die in the end. Some events have to lead to their

deaths, and someone makes these events happen. The person(s) who started it all

and did something that led to all the other events that caused the death of

"a pair of star-crossed lovers". The Capulets and Montagues would be

most responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because if their ancestors

didn?t start the fighting, and they didn?t continue it, nothing terrible

would have happened. The first lines of the book tell us about the hate and envy

between the two houses. Choir: "Two households, both alike in dignity, From

ancient grudge to new mutiny,". The choir tells us that the whole conflict

started a long time ago with really little things, and then grew into huge

fights involving many people. No leader of either household ever though about

making peace, they were all too busy to spoil everything for the rival family.

Only after the death of their children they realized how wrong they were. Romeo

and Juliet first meet each other at a party at the Capulets? house. They fall

in love with each other at the first sight without knowing that they are from

rival houses, and when they do learn about it, it is too late. Juliet says:

"My only love, sprung from my only hate! Too early seen unknown, and known

too late!". Juliet realizes that it was a mistake to fall in love with

Romeo, because he is one of the people she should watch out for. He is her first

and only love, but he is an enemy of her family. Luckily for Romeo, Juliet is

smart, and such dumb thing as unreasonable hate between their parents wouldn?t

stop her from loving Romeo and getting married with him. She is sorry that their

families are enemies, though, because everything would be much easier if they

weren?t. So this is the first time when the hate between Capulets and

Montagues becomes an obstacle to Romeo and Juliet?s happiness. Only after

their children die, do the Montague and Capulet come to their senses? The Prince

accuses them of killing Romeo and Juliet: ? . . . Capulet, Montague, See what

a scourge is laid upon your hate, That heavens finds means to kill your joys

with love!". The Prince makes them see how wrong they were all the time,

that all because of their hate, because they couldn?t let their children love

each other, Romeo and Juliet died. After that, Capulet and Montague make peace,

and Montague even says that he will make a gold statue of Juliet, but what is

that going to do, it is too late, nothing will bring their children back. It is

totally Capulets? and Montagues? fault that Romeo and Juliet died. If they

didn?t hate each other so much, they would let their children marry, and they

would be able to live happily ever after. There was only one person that

realized how unreasonable the fighting was and even tried to stop it, and he was

Benvolio. Benvolio was a Montague, but the Capulets didn?t have a peacemaker

such as Benvolio. They only had Tybalt, whose only goal was to destroy all the

Montagues. Also we don?t really know how Romeo and Juliet?s parents would

have reacted if they had known that their children love each other. Romeo and

Juliet didn?t even try to tell them about love between them because they were

afraid that their parents wouldn?t understand them, but maybe they would. The

problem is, we don?t know, because Capulet and Montague learned about their

children?s love when they were already dead. It is still mostly Capulets?

and Montagues? fault that Romeo and Juliet died, but maybe it was just their

fate to die. Romeo and Juliet A Tragic Play It is known that in Shakespeare?s
