Who is it?





This blog is about the issue of WHO is responsible for the death of Juliet. the answer depends on your point of view. It could be her parents, or the messenger, or even Juliet herself. The fact that there families were rivals would lead you to think that it was the parents faults. Then there is the fact that romeo never got the letters from the priest so he knew nothing about their plan. There is also the fact that Juliet was thirteen years old and rather naive. In retrospect anyone could be responsible for her death including her self.

Star Crossed Lovers



In most books or movies its all about star-crossed lovers. It's just inevitable. Romeo and Juliet was Shakespeare's way of writing about star-crossed lovers. Though they take it to a farther extent than those of today.Two people from two different families that hate each other...unfortunately....They kill themselves because they don't want to be without the other....has anyone noticed that some aspects of New Moon are from Romeo and Juliet? Anyway Shakespeare is a great writer and is still remembered to this day because of the story of Romeo and Juliet
