Romeo is desperate to see Juliet because he thinks he is in love. Therefore thy kinsmen are no stop to me” (2.2. While explaining how he had gotten there and found her he says, “And what love can do, that dares love attempt. Romeo goes to the Capulet mansion, climbs the walls and finds Juliet. Romeo continues to be impulsive when he is in love with Juliet. His rash decision-making causes him to feel he is in love without knowing Juliet or thinking about the fact that she might be a Capulet as well as the consequences that loving an enemy might have. Romeo is immediately convinced he is in love with Juliet because of her beauty, even though he has never talked to her and does not know who she is. At first sight of Juliet he proclaims, “Did my heart ever love till now? Forswear it, sight, / For I ne’er saw true beauty till this night” (1.5. He thinks he is in love with a woman named, Rosaline, until he sees Juliet. Romeo is at a ball at the Capulet’s house. An example is when Romeo seems to fall in love with Juliet very suddenly. Romeo’s impulsiveness motivates his choices when falling in love and while in love, as well as when choosing to get into fights and ultimately when he decides to commit suicide, leading to the downfall of the tragic hero, Romeo.įrom the beginning of the book, Romeo is quick and reckless when falling in love as well as while in love. He tends to make irrational and quick decisions without thinking about the consequences of his actions. Romeo has many flaws but the most prominent is his impulsiveness. Juliet sees Romeo dead and then also kills herself. Romeo, unaware of the plan, learns she has died and decides to end his own life. With the help of Friar Lawrence, Juliet comes up with a plan to see Romeo by faking her death. As punishment, Romeo is banished from Verona. Soon after their marriage, Mercutio, Romeo’s friend and Tybalt, Capulet’s nephew gets in a fight in which Mercutio is killed. Juliet, the daughter of Capulet, and Romeo, the son of Montague, fall in love and get married. The play is set in Verona and is about two families, the Capulets and the Montagues, who are bitter enemies.
In fact, in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet”, the tragic hero, Romeo is quite flawed. Not all heroes are as perfect as some might think. I was wondering what you think of it? Any comments, corrections, revisions or editing? Thanks. I am in the process of writing an essay on Romeo and Juliet for 9th grade English.
