Lord Capulet Should Be Pardoned In Romeo And Juliet
From Romeo and Juliet the characters all served big rules in this book because everyone even with a small rule has a big one. There is one big thing like should so and so be pardoned or punished.
In my head I think Lord Capulet should be pardoned but the frier should be punished, I know that you could say that Lord Capulet was abusive but I will counter that by saying that abuse was common and only people who lived in the house would know not anyone outside of it.
You may say but the frier should be let go because he tried to help and he told, but it’s counter time because he would have gotten away with it if he didn’t tell anyone. Since he told someone he was the one who could have said no and people would still be alive but he got

    lord capulet is the person responsible for romeo and juliet's deaths. One reason lord capulet is to blame is because he had a feud with lord montague “see, what a scourge is laid upon your hate”(5.3.291). The feud that lord capulet has with the montague is to blame because if there were no feud, Romeo and Juliet would not have had to go behind their parents backs and get married without permission.then lord capulet would not have tried to force Juliet to marry county paris. This brings me to my second point:Lord capulet forced juliet to marry paris when she really didn't want to; “I tell thee what. get thee to church o’ thursday or never after look me in the face again speak not reply not never answer me”(3.5.161-263).If lord capulet had…

    For our first character to blame will be Tybalt and his death. Tybalt is one to blame for Romeo and Juliet's death because of his bad temper and the family feud between his family( The Capulets) and the montagues( Romeo’s family). So as Tybalt's bad temper gets him at the Capulet party, He sees Romeo roaming around the party he was not officially invited to. Tybalt runs off and tell his uncle about this commotion and his uncle just told him to leave him alone but that’s not what Tybalt did. “Patience perforce with willful choler meeting makes my flesh tremble in their different greeting. I will withdraw;but this intrusion shall, now seeming sweet, convert to bitter gall.” As this quote remarks…

    In the final scene of the play the prince states that some will be pardoned and some will be punished. Someone needs to take responsibility for the death, devastation, and horror that they have caused in the streets of Verona. The feuding families have scared the people and run amok for too long.

    Many blame Romeo and Juliet for the choices that they make. However can you blame someone for trying to find a way out when forced into a corner? The choices and actions of other characters in Romeo and Juliet forced Romeo and Juliet into the positions they are in. Into positions where they feel there is nowhere to go but up to heaven in death. The two perpetrators most responsible for this are Friar Laurence and Lord Capulet. If they could not be so irresponsible and unreasonable in their choices and actions, Romeo and Juliet would still be alive and their relationship…

    “Three civil brawls,bred of an airy word By thee, old Capulet, and Montague, Have thrice disturbed the quiet of our streets and made Verona’s ancient citizens Cast by their grave beseeming ornaments”. (1,1,80) These famous lines were spoken by Prince in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, these lines demonstrate how the feud between the Capulets and Montagues and how the drama between these two families prevented the forbidden love Romeo and Juliet from getting married. The feud was started centuries before Romeo & Juliet and still went on within their time honestly if it weren’t for the feud the play would be highly monotonous if it wasn’t for the misunderstanding between the two families most of the fights and deaths would cease to exist. Such…

    They abdicated their parental responsibility. The Capulets are at fault, because they failed to realize the depths of passion which burn in a young, immature girl. Instead of being high-handed by simply forbidding this young women from seeing her beau, they should have tried to dissuade her or sent her away. Every girl in the world has some smart-talking, wise guy trying to sweep her off her feet, at the least.…

    Capulet, dishearten about the recent death of Tybalt, reschedules and plans the wedding of the County Paris in order to bring happiness rather than woe for Juliet, “O' Thursday let it be.—O' Thursday, tell her…” (Shakespeare 3.4.22-25). Capulet not only created rash decisions for his own benefit (social status, security, and economic state) and forces marriage on to Juliet, but has complicated Romeo and Juliet’s plan to be together. Juliet revokes this arranged marriage and is overwhelmed by the advancement that her parents have created. Capulet, being the head of household has patriarchal power making it harder for Juliet’s opinion to be valid. He uses force and power showing that he is selfish and prone to rage, “Hang thee, young baggage! Disobedient wretch!... An you be mine, I’ll give you to my friend.” (Shakespeare 3.5.160-167,177-196). Juliet begs to cancel the marriage but he being a misogynist, revokes her opinion, and in hope to know what is best for her. He continues to use verbal abuse to prove his point and treats her as a piece of property instead of a human being. The lack of proper communication and contentment presented proves how challenging it is for Juliet to reveal to her parents that she is loyal and married to Romeo and that her opinion is valid, gives her further reason to be disobedient. Her parents fail to acknowledge that this is a new step in her life due to being with a different guardian, and the overwhelming amount of misinterpreted emotions that she is experiencing, such as her parents believing that she is only crying for the death Tybalt, but for the exile of Romeo…

    In act 1 , I would like to argue that Lord Capulet makes a better parent. He’s allowing time for Juliet to pick the man that she wants to marry while Lady Capulet advocates for Juliet to marry Paris, regardless of what Juliet believes or thinks. Also Tybalt told Lord Capulet that Romeo was at the party and because he is a Montague he should be kicked out. However, the lord states “ Let him alone. He bears him like a portly gentleman, and to say the truth, Verona brags of him To be a virtuous and well-governed youth. (1,5,74-77). This quote demonstrates that Lord Capulet is open and willing to allow her daughter to see whomever she desires, versus promoting what the parent believes. On the Flipside, Lady Capulet wants Juliet to marry Paris…

    Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare is a tragedy about two young lovers, whose passionate love is ended by the fated death of both parties. The sad conclusion of their young love is also caused by many others besides the protagonists Romeo and Juliet; some shall be pardoned; while some shall be punished. Juliet’s beloved mother-figure- the Nurse, does not deserve the audience’s scorn. Friar John, the Franciscan monk who plays a part in the death of Romeo, should also, be forgiven. Friar Laurence and Capulet, on the other hand, have many faults that contribute to the end results, of which I will discuss further.…
