    William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet (Ed. Rex Gibson. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press‚ 2009) is a tragic tale of two star-crossed lovers. Throughout the play‚ the two lovers show a major transformation and growth. I believe that Juliet becomes the more mature‚ stronger and braver character of the two. By “stronger‚” I mean more emotionally stable and able to deal with stressful situations. By “mature‚” I mean more conscious of the decisions and the resulting consequences. And by “braver‚”

    “What similarities and differences do you find in the ways the problems of characters in love are presented in Romeo and Juliet and a section of poems you have studied?” One problem we see with Romeo and Juliet’s love is that it is quite shallow.

    prologue‚ Romeo and Juliet are described as “star-crossed lovers” and reference is made to their “death-marked love”.
