Romeo And Juliet Rhetorical Analysis

In Romeo and Juliet, Juliet’s repetition shows her uncertainty in choosing to side with Tybalt or Romeo. This is important because it ultimately shows the contradicting obligations she has to Romeo and also her family. Juliet’s contradicting decision is due to Romeo’s banishment and Tybalt’s death and ultimately is over who’s side she should be on. Specifically, in Act III scene ii lines 97-114, Juliet works through this situation by comparing both situations next to each other, which shows a different side to Juliet because she usually does not work through these situations out loud. Juliet compares the situations by using the same words in order to get a better understanding of what they really mean in the different contexts of the situation.
