  • Essay / Analysis of Romeo and Juliet - 1089

    The most important writer in all of English literature, William Shakespeare, was born in 1564 to a glover in Stratford-upon-Avon, England. Shakespeare attended the grammar school in 1582. He later married an older woman named Anne Hathaway and had 3 children with her. Around 1590 he left his family and went to London to work as an artist and playwright where he became part-time owner of the Globe Theatre. His career bridges the reigns of Elizabeth II and James II. He was a favorite of both members of the royal family. William Shakespeare is the best playwright in the world because he creates an atmosphere of tension and excitement in Act 3 Scene 1 by using wordplay, contrasting people, and using various languages. William Shakespeare embraces social and chronological context by taking the story and poems of contrasting people. for example Arthur Brooke's poem, the tragic story of Romeus and Juliet, witnessed in 1562, between 13 feuding centaury families, the Montecchi and Capelleti families. Romeo first known as Romeus is a Montecchi, now recognized as Montague, Juliet is a Capelleti now known as Capulet. The two families have a rivalry towards each other and only care about their importance and courtesy. In Act 3, Scene 1, he shows many language signs such as repetitions like the word "Hot", for example when Benvolio speaks to Mercutuio, please. , good Mercutio, let's retire the day is hot”. Repetition that emphasizes this also allows us to better understand what is happening, for example he says it's hot. When Shakespeare begins with Benvolio, I pray you, good Mercutio, that we retire, the day is hot, the Capulets are outside, and if we meet we will not escape the fight, for now, these hot days, It’s the crazy blood that boils. Right there... middle of paper... sick William Shakespeare is a genius for writing Romeo and Juliet because he captured humanity so well that even centuries after his death, thousands of people read his work for pleasure. and some for conscience, others are trying to understand what type of person Shakespeare was. I think Shakespeare creates an atmosphere of tension and excitement by using 3 different devices about fate, love and violence in Act 3 Scene 1 always changing the moods at the beginning. with his characters in a pleasant mood by making Mercutio finish Benvolio, in the middle the climax changes because there is a fight, in the end Shakespeare changes the mood to sadness, he also made this scene great because Shakespeare uses moral for example one of them can be to not keep secrets from the people you love or your enemies, even if it is for the good.
