Romeo And Juliet Analysis

“O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name;” (Shakespeare, 536). In the book, ‘Romeo and Juliet”, by William Shakespeare there is a deeper meaning that Shakespeare is trying to portray other than parents cannot control their children’s hearts. He is trying to portray that a name is only a name and it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things and that even with a different name that person will still be the same person they have always been. Shakespeare is using the characters: Juliet, Romeo, Lord Capulet, Friar Lawrence, and the Nurse to get this message across to the reader or the viewer.

When Tybalt says, “It fits when such a villain is a guest. I’ll not endure him.” (Shakespeare, 527) Lord Capulet gets angry and replies, “He shall be endured. What, goodman boy! I say, he shall. Go to. Am I the master here, or you? Go to. You’ll not endure him! God shall mend my soul, You’ll make a mutiny among my

First, when Friar Lawrence married Romeo and Juliet in the sixth scene of act two, even if he only thought it would break the feud between the Capulets and Montagues, it also showed that if you fall in love with someone it doesn’t matter their last name. Then, throughout the play he continued to help them with their problems. After Romeo had slew Tybalt and had been banished from Verona, he went to Friar Lawrence and he helped Romeo figure out what to do. The Friar also helped Juliet get over Romeo being banished and having to almost marry Paris by giving her a potion that will make her seem deceased until after about forty-eight hours. The Nurse on the other hand was always there for Juliet when she needed her. She helped Juliet and Romeo with the wedding by relaying what Juliet was supposed to do to get married to Romeo back to Juliet. She had also gone to find Romeo for Juliet numerous times.
