Excerpt from sonnet 18
“Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate:Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May…”
Romeo and Juliet“The greatest tragedy ever written”
It is a common
misconception that
“Romeo and Juliet”
was a romance, but
is in fact, a tragedy:
Includes an
extraordinary hero
(Romeo)
the hero dies, and
the heroes death
served a large
purpose. These are
all specifications of a
tragedy
Romeo and Juliet lie dead (left)
Romeo and Juliet takes place in Verona Italy around the early 1300’s. It is here where Montague and Capulet families are engaged in a constant feud. The Daughter (Juliet) of lord and lady Capulet, and the son (Romeo) of lord and lady Montague become star crossed lovers without their parents knowing. Through a tragic, and touching chain of events, the two (after a mistaken death) ensue their own deaths to remain together.
