Shakespeare was a marvellous play writer and his best play was Romeo and Juliet‚ in the story he mixed the themes of love and violence. This will show you how and why he did this. The play is about romance; Shakespeare begins in the most peculiar way for instance‚ in the beginning of Act 1 Scene 1. Firstly he starts with violence with the houses arguing with each other and trying to resolve with a fight. Gregory bites his thumb (a highly rude gesture to the Montague’s). Then a verbal argument

Romeo is cancer “Love is heavy and light‚ bright and dark‚ hot and cold‚ sick and healthy‚ asleep and awake- its everything except what it is! (Act 1‚ scene 1)” says romeo from the play Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare.

Finally‚ why would they make the tomb and houses if the drama was fake and Juliet wasn’t actually put in the tomb. Why would someone just say the tomb was Juliet’s. People wouldn’t just say the tomb is Juliet’s because if

What’s the Difference? Romeo and Juliet‚ the play by William Shakespeare‚ is a story about prohibited young love between the two characters‚ Romeo and Juliet‚ members of enemy houses‚ and it ends with the tragic death of both the lovers.
