The Friar was right about what he did. The marriage of Romeo and Juliet was both good and bad, but mostly good. The marriage helped to bring peace and unity between the families. It also brought happiness to the two lovers. The bad part was that the families did not see the error of their ways fast enough to stop the feud that their children had to die for it. If they would have noticed it before everyone could have been
Friar the man who was the most generous and the most beloved man by the Capulet and Montague. He has helped the two families who were the two biggest enemies of the time come to gather, and become a big family that would help each other out. This man was not perfect he had made a couple large mistake such as helped both of the families. He also caused the death of Romeo and Juliet, but at the end he has made the greatest impact at the end of the play. He was the only character that is consider to have the largest impact on ending the family Feud, between the family of Montague, and the family of Capulet.
“We still have known thee for a holy man.” Both families in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare had an abundance of respect for the man, Friar Laurence. He is a key character in the plot of Romeo and Juliet. Friar Laurence servers many dramatic purposes in the play. His role was a father figure to both Juliet and Romeo, a man whom Romeo could divulge information to, and an instrumental character in the final scenes of Romeo and Juliet.
When he married Romeo and Juliet, he wished for more than their happiness. He hoped that the marriage would bring families together. When witnessing the deaths he says in sorrow, “I’m a friar holy and peaceful.” “Oh Lord, the poor deaths that lie in front of me. Are due to my greed to resolve the feud.”
Friar Laurence's immature actions make him part of the tragedy. For one, he married Romeo and Juliet. When told that Romeo loves Juliet, Friar replies, "Holy Saint Francis, what a change is here! /Is Rosaline, that thou didst love so dear, /so soon forsaken? Young men's love then lies/ not truly in the hearts, but in their eyes," (II, III, lines 66-69). In these lines, Friar admits that Romeo is only lusting for Juliet. Being the adult, Friar shouldn't have married Romeo until he found true love. However, the Friar was immature and married them anyways. Then, Friar came up with the idea for Juliet to fake death. Juliet is distressed about Romeo being banished so Friar comes up with the plan saying, "Hold, then. Go home, be merry, give consent/ to marry Paris. Wednesday is tomorrow,” Juliet is then suppose to "Take thou this vial, being then in bed/ And this distilling liquor drink thou off." After being buried and awakened, "Shall Romeo bear thee hence to Mantua." (IV, I, Lines 90-119). This bad advise, to give a girl a drink like death and tells her to run away, is only one of many immature actions Friar takes. Finally, Friar did not stay with Juliet after she frantically woke up, in a tomb, next other diseased husband who was supposed to run away with her to Mantua. Inste...
Most movies portray friars as wise mentors, or strict religion-followers, that lead lawful, moral, and virtuous lives. But this tragic play of Romeo and Juliet begs to differ, as the friar does nothing but help achieve the forbidden plans of two star-crossed lovers. As Friar Lawrence gets involved more deeply into the schemes of Romeo and Juliet, he too begins to warp sly plans out of his head, such as the potion plan.
In the play, having the friendships that continue to rely, support and help each other become an extreme part of the play. Friar Lawrence states, “So smile the heavens upon this holy act That after-hours with the sorrow chide us not!”(Shakespeare, 2.6. 1-2). In the part of the play, it is being said that Friar Lawrence agreed to marry Romeo and Juliet because he believes it would end the family feud. If Friar would have not married them, no one else would have. Which shows how much they rely on Friar. “Give me, give me! O tell not me of fear.”(Shakespeare, 4.1. 122-123). As Friar says, “Hold. Get you gone. Be strong and prosperous.”(Shakespeare 4.1. 124). Is this scene, Friar is giving Juliet a potion to appear as if she is dead, so that by
To start with, Friar John was shown to be quite irresponsible with the task he was given by Friar Laurence. Although the latter was the person who came up with the rash plan of feigning Juliet’s death and informing Romeo as the story goes on, it was not his fault the lovers ultimately died in the end. Friar John, however, was clearly given the task of delivering the vital letter to Romeo, to which he did not fulfil. To him, it was not at the top of his to-do list, and he instead resorted to helping out a fellow friar. He knew that the message was urgent, yet he did not make a big effort to get it to Romeo in time. Because of this, Romeo was not fully informed of the “plan”, and he decided to kill himself along with Juliet, resulting in their
