Romeo is presented as a lonely character. This is evident when Morcusio says “Hes bee seen there many mornings, crying his tears that add to the fresh morning’s dew.” From the quote it’s apparent that Romeo isolates himself from the outer world, Shakespeare tries to imply this through the sympathetic imagery and the way he apposes society.
Romeo is presented as a man in a confused state of mind, “Is the day so young?” and is careless lost in the head. Further exemplified by.. “Why, then O bawling love! O loving hate” oxymorons
Romeo is presented as romantic and loyal at the end of Scene II in his devotion to his only love: “Ill go along, not to be shown such a sight, But to rejoice in splendour of my own loves looks”. And in the very next act he as presented unloyal when his love rejoices for Juliet and asks to marry her. This time hes being loved back his love has been shown as extremely strong:”if I had written it down on a paper, I would tear the word from the page” shows his hatred for the montagues but his love is stronger for juilet
Romeo is looked at such a popular character n modern age as a romance figure. But we see another side of Romeo when he kills tobat avenging his cousin
Romo is brave going against his parents for his marriage to such an extent he would change his name for her “from now on ill never be romeo”
Romeo is presented as to be someone who makes rash decisions, hes a very eager character and young/immature to marry Juiliet on the first night of meeting her. Porposoal : “th’ exchange of thy loves faithful vow for mine.” Immature to mature possibilities, Giving the relationship a name and making it official, he arranges it with the priest the very same night too. Further explified when he kills tobalt FOR avengence for his cousin and kills himself after seeing Juliet

    Throughout the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, various types of love are shown. Romeo and Juliet is a romantic love story but romantic love is not the only type of love in the story.

The different types of love in Romeo and Juliet are Materialistic love which Shakespeare shows between Juliet and her parents, fraternal love between Romeo, Mercutio and Benvolio. As well as bawdy love which is shown all through out the story but mostly Mercutio and the nurse. All in all Shakespeare does a good shop of showing the different types of love.…

    Romeo and Juliet, a play written by William Shakespeare, is about Romeo, a passionate young man that tends to act hastily and rashly. Friar Lawerence advises him to behave more moderately to avoid danger and mistakes. Yet Romeo does not listen. There are many times throughout the play where Romeo could have avoided a bad situation if he had only listened to the Friar. Romeo falls in love with Juliet Capulet, a member of the rivaling family, and Romeo decides to marry her within 24 hours of meeting her without consulting with anyone. This is not the first time Romeo has fallen in love so quickly. Before Juliet, he was in love with a girl name Rosaline but he quickly changes his mind when he meets Juliet. Romeo's hastiness and emotional unstability will affect him negatively and lead to his demise.…

    His impulsive side had caused quite some havoc. Romeo did not fall in love, yet merely was infatuated with Juliet, as well as Rosaline, “So soon Forsaken? Young men’s love then lies not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes”(2.3.67-68). If Romeo hadn’t acted out on this infatuation towards Juliet then none of the rapid irrational actions of the couple would have occurred. Romeo then marries Juliet the next evening, a few hours later from meeting each other, he asks Friar Laurence who reluctantly accepts, but for other reasons, “That thou consent to marry us today”(2.2.64). Since the marriage was done secretly no-one else besides the Friar, nurse and Balthasar knew about it therefore it caused some problems. For example, Tybalt challenges Romeo to a duel, yet Romeo has no intentions in fighting with Tybalt due to them being cousins, “Tybalt, the reason that I have to love thee”(3.1.59). Tybalt doesn't know about the marriage so he takes Romeo’s remark as a sarcastic one which fuels his anger, “Boy, this shall not excuse the injuries that thou hast done to me”(3.1.63-64). When Mercutio is slain by Tybalt , Romeo takes it upon himself to avenge his friend’s death and slays Tybalt, but soon realized what he has done, “O, I am fortune’s fool!”(3.1.135). Romeo acted impulsively which leads to his banishment from Verona and breaking any chance of reconcile between the families, “Immediately we do…

    Not quite yet a full grown man, Romeo was still a teenager who had not yet been fully exposed to the world. Being born and raised in aristocracy, he would have be shaded from the harsh reality of the world. Romeo first claims he is in love with Rosaline, and becomes very depressed when he finds out she is going to become a nun (I. ii. 159-228). He becomes downhearted because he [thought he] knew that Rosaline was the wife for him, but as she decided to become a nun, she cannot marry. Romeo shortly thereafter meets Juliet for the first time, where he decides he is now in “love”…

    "Romeo and Juliet" revolves around two lovers whose love is destined for tragedy. In the Play "Romeo and Juliet", Act 2 Scene 3, Shakespeare demonstrates Romeo's impetuous, shallow and stubborn nature.

    Romeo and Juliet display Romeo’s ill made decisions when Romeo consumed in anger and grief kills Tybalt. Rather than letting the law deal with the murder of Mercutio he takes matters into his own hands and engages Tybalt in a fight killing him in the heat of battle. “Now, Tybalt, take the “villain” back again, / That late thou gavest me, for Mercutio’s soul/” (3.1.125-126). This exclamation shows Romeo’s ill made decision making in a time of grief. Another expo of Romeo’s impulsive choices is his encounter with Paris.…

    His spontaneous nature is seen in all his emotions. Romeo goes from obsessing over Rosaline and nothing in the world being able to replace her to being madly in love with Juliet in mere minutes because of his impulsive nature. A few minutes after seeing Juliet for the first time in his life, Romeo decides to marry her that very day. He does not want to wait at all and he would marry her right there if he could. His hastiness then leads him to Friar Lawrence to beg him to marry them. Throughout his conversation with Friar Lawrence, the Friar brings up many good points as to why Romeo and Juliet should wait to get married but Romeo does not care about what anyone else thinks and keeps telling the Friar that he wants to get married to Juliet as soon as possible, which we can see when he says “... but this I pray, That thou consent to marry us today.” (II, iii, 59-60). Romeo’s impulsiveness is evident throughout his relationship with Juliet and we can also see it in many other aspects of the…

    I first met Romeo when he was just a little child, born in a society absorbed in hatred. Romeo had a good life but was lonely. His parents did not have the time or energy to look after him and show him the attention he deserved. I often saw him wondering the streets at night misbehaving. Once I saw him steal a loaf of bread of his best friend Benvolio. As Benvolio treated him with insults, I came along and paid for that loaf of bread and took him back to my cell to teach him some life lessons.…

    To begin with, there is no doubt that Juliet portrays strong characteristics of impulsiveness. Juliet finds herself deeply love-struck by Romeo after only meeting him a few hours ago, “If that thy bent of love be honourable,/ Thy purpose marriage, send me word to-morrow,/’’ (II.2.149-150). Asking him to marry her, without even knowing each other for twenty-four hours exemplifies that Juliet does not think through her actions. She knows they are rival families yet she feels a passionate emotion that urges her to act on the spur of the moment. Juliet’s tragic flaw leads to a road of lying, confusion, and death.…

    Romeo: Static Character

    • 476 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Romeo is in love with the idea of being in love. Instead of using his head, Romeo only defines love with his eyes and heart. When it comes to emotions, Romeo is ardent about being in love. Because he unconditionally loves many characters throughout the play, it causes major conflicts. This makes him static because during the play he always lets love, and other emotions, get in the way and never learns from his mistakes.When Tybalt wants a duel Romeo says, “To such a greeting. Villain am I none,” (III.i.63) and backs down. After Tybalt starts to insult Romeo, Mercutio gets in between them and is then killed by Tybalt. “Now, Tybalt, take the ‘villain’ back again…

    I first knew Romeo as a little boy, who was born into a family that was involved in a harsh, long-lasting feud with the Capulet household. As Romeo grew older, I served as a mentor to him. He would often come to see me to talk about his problems with me and it was through these conversations that we became friends. I started to teach him to disregard the conflict between his family and the Capulets, and to always gain new friends, not enemies. Romeo really took these lessons and tried to use them in his life and apply them to the lives of overs as well. Romeo turned out to become a polite, kind, and caring young man who showed compassion to all those people around him, whether they be Montague or not. Romeo was never really into the fighting that was going on between the houses, instead he would rather try make peace with the Captulets so that there would be no more of the violence.…
