Who caused the death of romeo and juliet?
Romeo and Juliet is about a family feud and 2 teenagers falling in love with each other. Romeo and Juliet died because 2 people tried to let them live together but it ended up both of them killing themselves. In the play “ Romeo & Juliet died because of Tybalt’s dangerous actions and emotion and Lord Capulet’s greed for power.
Romeo and Juliet was a sad but interesting play. It’s partially tybalt’s fault because at the beginning of the story at the party Romeo snuck into a party and Tybalt told Lord Capulet and he said it's a party let him stay. Tybalt said, “Uncle, this is a Montague, our foe, A villain that is hither come in spite To scorn at our solemnity this night.” tybalt is saying that Romeo is a enemy and he’s at the party and he wants to get Romeo out the party. In conclusion Tybalt was a big role of why Romeo and Juliet died.

He got mad at her because she didn’t want to marry Paris because she was already married to Romeo. Lord Capulet said “But Montague is bound as well as I,/In penalty alike, and 'tis not hard, I think,/For men so old as we to keep the peace.” After being lectured by the Prince of Verona, Lord Capulet comes to his senses and acknowledges that he's too old to be caught up in the long-standing family feud. From here on out, Capulet is pretty peaceful. He even stops Tybalt from beating up Romeo at the Capulet

    In William Shakespeare’s play Romeo & Juliet we look at two star-crossed lovers, from opposite sides of an ancient grudge in the town of Verona and their struggle between fate and freewill. Shakespeare deliberately creates characters that can be held accountable for the tragic deaths of the central roles. Their untimely demise can be attributed to four contributing factors: The poor advice of Friar Lawrence and the Nurse, the two feuding households, the impulsive behaviour of our chief protagonists and the cruel bitter irony of fortune.…

    In my opinion, the blame goes to the characters that supported and didn’t support Romeo and Juliet. Especially, Lord Capulet, Lady Capulet, Friar Lawrence, Nurse and fate. Juliet’s parents have an important role for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. As the mother of Juliet, Lady Capulet is meant to comfort Juliet. Instead of doing that, she abandons Juliet in the middle of suffering. Lord Capulet acted harsh when Juliet expressed her opinion over Paris. Both of Juliet’s parents deserted her in a challenging situation. Friar Lawrence tried to bring an end to the grudge between the two families by helping Romeo and Juliet get married. His advice to Juliet to deceive her parents and the solution he provided…

    Blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet can be pointed in several different directions. Not only characters were accountable for the calamity. Three main non-human contributors to the tragedy were fate, impulsiveness, and time. Fate played a part in Romeo's banishment from Mantua. His absence from the scene set a clear path for Paris to pursue his love interest. Romeo's impulsive behaviour guided him to make the decision to end his life after hearing the news of Juliet's death. Time was sped up when Old Capulet decided to bring Juliet's wedding forward a day. All these points were main contributors towards the tragedy in Romeo and Juliet.…

    First, if they did not have a feud Tybalt would have never challenged Romeo to a duel. It was the feud that made Tybalt hate the Montagues. He thought that because Romeo was a Montague he should have never went to the party and it made him angry that he did. Next, Juliet’s family hated Romeo more after he killed Tybalt. Romeo did not have a chance at seeing Juliet, if her family saw him they wanted him dead because they thought the banishment was not enough of a punishment for killing Tybalt. Lastley, Lady Capulet said “For blood of ours shed blood of Montague,” when she learned Romeo killed Tybalt. They wanted Romeo dead after they heard he killed Tybalt. Juliet could not let her family know that she just married Romeo because they would never approve and they could not see each other.

    These deaths that occur appear in, and greatly impact, both the Montague and Capulet families. When Romeo first appears at the Capulet party, Tybalt instantaneously notices him, and becomes quite angry. Tybalt runs to Lord Capulet, to see he can be granted to permission to remove of Romeo. Lord Capulet responds surprisingly well to the news of Romeo arriving at the party. “Content thee gentle coz. Let him alone.” States Capulet in act 1 scene 5. However, Tybalt has a different opinion on what should happen to Romeo. Because of Tybalt’s differing opinion, he later, in act 3 scene 1, finds Romeo and proceeds to throw insults around. Mercutio, Romeo’s best friend, becomes angry at Tybalt for insulting his best friend, and decides to fight with Tybalt. Romeo disagrees with this decision and tries to break up the fight. Mercutio ends up being stabbed by Tybalt, and then out of anger Romeo kills Tybalt. Because all of these characters had differing opinions, lives were lost, leaving long lasting effects on both…

    Tybalt is most responsible for the deaths that happened in the play Romeo and Juliet. Tybalt is responsible for the death of mercutio in act three. After mercutio was stabbed by Tybalt, he said “Ask for me tomorrow and you shall find me a grave man.” (3.1.95). This quote is saying that the wound is going to kill him and he suspects he will die soon. He wanted to fight tybalt for telling Capulet on them at the party. Romeo tried to stop it but tybalt acted first and stabbed mercutio. Therefore, Tybalt is responsible for mercutio's death. But before mercutio dies, he states “A plague on both of your houses!” (3.1.87). Mercutio wants his dying words to tell both the capulets and the montagues that their feud has gone too far. He was not a capulet nor a montague but he was still killed even though he was just affiliated with the montagues. Tybalt is…

    Romeo And Juliet Blame

    • 1057 Words
    • 5 Pages

    People may think that Tybalt is to blame because he got into a fight with Romeo ultimately causing Romeo to be banished. Tybalt did actively and willingly go to battle with Romeo in the streets. He also did kill Mercutio and caused Romeo to seek revenge for his friend. However, Tybalt attacked Romeo because he was raised to hate the Montagues. All that Tybalt knew was his family's hatred for the Montagues. Due to this, Tybalt got into a fight with Romeo, causing Romeo to get banished, and ultimately causing Romeo and Juliet to kill themselves in the end. In the play when Romeo comes to the Capulets's party, Tybalt says, "This, by his voice, should be a Montague." Quoted from pg. 1014. Tybalt said this because he gets angered that Romeo has snuck into the party unannounced. This causes Tybalt to grow even more of a hatred to Romeo specifically. Due to Romeo coming to the party without being invited and just for being a Montague, Tybalt's instincts tell him to fight Romeo. Were it not for the family feud, Tybalt would have little to no reason to hate Romeo, causing him to do battle with Romeo, ultimately causing Romeo and Juliet's deaths. Tybalt is not a major factor into the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. His hatred for Romeo and the Montagues was taught and grown into him, and due to the secrecy of Romeo, he felt offended by the uninvited Romeo to the Capulet…
