Description

This tragic play is composed by one of the stalwarts of writers, William Shakespeare, about two "star-crossed lovers" whose deaths, at last, join their fighting families.In Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare utilizes a few sensational strategies that have earned acclaim from critics; outstandingly the sudden turn from comedy to tragedy.The Montagues and the Capulets, Verona's two quarrelling honourable houses, are continually fighting and therefore the Prince of Verona gives a decree that will force a capital punishment on anybody found dueling. Romeo, a Montague is charmed by Rosaline, a niece of Capulet. Rosaline is immediately forgotten when Romeo and his companions mask themselves and slip into a masque ball at Capulet's home. During the ball, Romeo gets his first look at Juliet, Capulet's daughter. In one of Shakespeare's most famous scenes, Romeo takes into the garden and claims his love for Juliet, who remains above her gallery. The two young lovers, with the guide of Friar Laurence, make arrangements to get married soon. Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, attempts to show Romeo how to battle with a sword yet Romeo dodges the duel because he discreetly knows that Tybalt is Juliet's family member.Romeo's dearest companion, Mercutio, responds to Tybalt's call and dies. As revenge, Romeo rather kills Tybalt. Romeo is banished from Verona for disregarding the prince's order. However, he consummates his marriage to Juliet.While Romeo is away, the Capulets unknown about Juliet's marriage decide to get her married to Paris who is the prince's cousin. Juliet meets Friar Laurence who helped in their marriage to devise a plan to keep her away from her parent's desires. She acquires a medicine that will allow her to appear dead for 42 hours. Friar Laurence reaches out to Romeo so he can protect her from her tomb. Tragically, Friar Laurence delays, and word arrives at Romeo that Juliet has died.Romeo, misery stricken, chooses to take poison and dies in her tomb.The Montagues and Capulets, when confronted with the terrific truth that their fight has claimed, promise to stop the feud between the two houses. ...
