The Language in William Shakespeare's Act Three Scene 5 of Romeo and Juliet The scene opens peacefully and gently. Lines 1-25 are highly poetic to reflect the beauty of the romantic scene. The reference to birdsong adds to the pleasure the audience feel at seeing the lovers happy together. The close description and figurative language (metaphors in this case) create vivid imagery which enables the audience to picture what is taking place outside the bedroom window. For example: 'Night's candles are burnt out' -------------------------------------------- Notice how the long vowel sounds, up to line 16, reinforce the idea of Juliet's sleepiness and create a dreamy quality. Line 17 on - ------------ Still poetic, but more short words and vowel sounds as Romeo's reluctance to leave intensifies and the pace quickens, adding to the sense of drama and excitement. Line 26-35 Juliet's words introduce less pleasant images, reflecting the fear and sorrow she is experiencing: 'straining harsh discords', 'loathed toad', 'affray', 'hunting. These lines also show that Juliet is now fully awake and conscious of the danger to Romeo(and herself). They illustrate how unhappy she is becoming at the thought of parting from her new husband. Line 36 - A foreshadowing of what will happen later in the play. The firs t real ominous note, that with the growing light of day, the darkness of separation and unhappiness will follow. Line 37-40 Juliet's (and audience's) feelings of sadness are interrupted by the Nurse's warning, heightening the danger of the couple's situation. Line 41 - Romeo has to go... ... middle of paper ... ...sharp. Sounds very cold and final. It's usually the end of a prayer, what end does it signify here? Line 229 Nurse's 'What?' Does she sense that Juliet means more than, 'Thanks, That's the end of the discussion'? Line 230 Juliet's reply has a hollow, bitter tone. Line 235. 'Ancient damnation…..' Juliet cursing the Nurse (and perhaps the feud) 'Thou and my bosom henceforth shall be twain.' Their friendship is finished. Juliet feels betrayed. Juliet is now isolated, has no one but Friar Lawrence to turn to. Line 242 The final and very chilling line which reveals Juliet's decision kill herself rather than marry Paris and so betray Romeo. This act of desperation emphasises the strength of her love and echoes Romeo's willingness to face death for Juliet's sake at the start of the scene.

In the Elizabethan time, Shakespeare uses language that was considered educated and proper in the things he wrote. One of his famous pieces, Romeo and Juliet, stands as one of those examples. In one of the best strategies Shakespeare wrote, Romeo and Juliet's story line and language conveys different scenes and diverse character personalities that capture the relation of the characters and the story itself. Romeo and Juliet's story is about a romance which lead into a tragedy. For this essay, I chose to write about Juliet's "traditional" and "rebellious".

Act Three Scene 5 of Romeo and Juliet Romeo and Juliet is set in Verona, which is the battleground for a hostile feud between two families, the Montague’s and the Capulets. The two families brawl constantly in the streets; the reason for the quarrel is never actually made very clear. In response to the constant fighting the prince of Verona issues an addict imposing the death penalty on anyone caught “duelling”. Romeo, a young man of the house of Montague, has been infatuated with Rosaline, a niece of Capulet.
Act 3 Scene 3 Of Romeo And Juliet by William Shakespeare Act 3 Scene 3 is a perfect example of Romeo's despondent persona. The events that take place in Friar Laurence's cell occur right after Romeo's marriage to Juliet. Romeo's devastation by the news that he is to be banished from Verona after murdering Juliet's cousin, Tybalt, had led him to seek guidance from Friar Laurence. Although this may seem understandable, Romeo is melodramatic and gives the impression that he is an over-the-top teenager. He illustrates this when he says; "Ha, banishment!
