They were two teenagers who fell in love, and it was not their fault their love turned to a tragedy. The main causes for the tragic end of the play were fate, the ancient feud between the Capulets and the Montagues, the way things had gone out of control for them and the fact they could not do anything about it.

One of the main reasons for Romeo and Juliet to be tragic is the feud between the Capulets and Montagues. The feud between them has lasted very long and even though nobody remembered what it started from, it is grown to a point that even the Prince couldn’t

    In the play “Romeo and Juliet” written by William Shakespeare I blame the reason for their tragedy on Friar Laurence. In the play the Friar married Romeo and Juliet to each other and didn’t inform the Capulet's nor the Montague's. The Friar also tried to help Juliet by giving her a sleeping potion so she wouldn’t have to marry Paris. He also failed to deliver the letter to Romeo saying that Romeo didn’t die, but she was in fact sleeping. “I could not send it here it is again nor get a messenger to bring it thee so fearful were they of infection” (Shakespeare 470). Lastly the Friar had blamed the two lover's death of Romeo and Juliet when both the Capulet's and Montague's had heard of there passings.…

    Romeo and Juliet is a tragic story of two young lovers doomed from the beginning. In this tragic tale, the parents of the two teenagers are usually assumed to be the most at fault for what occurred within those few days. Many people believe that the kids were innocent victims in the whole situation, and none of those events would have occurred if the parents wouldn’t have been so idiotic and made such hasty decisions. These people most often can agree that the leaders of the Montague and Capulet families are the only ones left to punish in this situation. After all, they were the ones who put everyone in this situation. The parents do deserve a lot of blame, but they are not the only ones who deserve it, and the kids were not mere innocent…

    Why is blame so easy to hand out yet so hard to be handed? By definition, blame is the responsibility for a fault or wrongdoing. People tend to blame others or events for the sorrows in their lives, yet most can never stop and accept the repercussions of their own actions. For example, a bad test grade can only put blame onto the taker for not studying or seeking help. Likewise, a mere victim of a random shooting cannot be held accountable for the actions of the shooter, who is blamed fully. However, in the tragic ending of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, the plot is full of accusations and offenders, not a single guilty party. When pin pointing blame for the outcome of the play, it can be dispersed across the board. However, there are multiple…

    The tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is a very complicated one. A series of initially independent events interrupt one another, making it fairly difficult to place blame on one person. So, we should take a look at the instigators of each event to determine who is to blame. The initial events are the fight caused by Sampson, Gregory, Abraham, and BAlthasar which reignite the family feud, Romeo falling in love and marrying Juliet, and Lord Capulet arranging Paris’ and Juliet’s marriage. With this list of people we can determine who is to blame.…

    When people get desperate they do desperate things. For example, if you’re in some trouble and running out of time, you're probably trying every way possible to get out of the situation, and sometimes involve death. In Romeo and Juliet Shakespeare portrays them as innocent people conflicted with their family life and their love for one another . In the story there are many people to blame for the two lover’s death, but the main three I believe are to blame are, Capulet, Paris and especially the nurse. Capulet Is to blame for their death because, when his daughter, Juliet, tells Capulet that she has no interest in marrying Paris, he should have accepted Juliet's decision.…

    “Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal” (from a headstone in Ireland). When people die their loved ones often face depression and mourn for a long time especially if that loved one is someone you raised and watched grow up over the years. Sometimes individuals like to blame people for their loved ones death when in actuality there could be just more than one person to blame or no one at all. The death of Romeo and Juliet in William Shakespeare’s play is very unfortunate.

    In my opinion I think that there is a lot of people to blem for Romeo and Juliet's death. One of the people that we should blem for Romeo and juliet’s death is themselves. Romeo and juliet didn't think of themselves or their beautiful future and even their families. When Romeo killed himself just for one minute he should have think of his mother, father or his family, his friend, his life without Juliet. When Juliet killed herself what she should have done in my opinion is to take one minute think of her mother even if she is not nice to her or she should have thing of the nurse or not all of these but of her future. Romeo and juliet and teenage and they are very emotional. In my opinion I think we would’d only blem Romeo and Juliet themselves because there are some people that make them make that decision. Like their families and or Friar Lorens.…
