Romeo_&_Juliet

Romeo & Juliet The Women of Shakespeare Women in Shakespeare's plays were not of importance, compared to the male characters. Though, the women had a minor role in the plays, they played a big role in the lives of others in the play. Some of them will end tragically, or end the same way they started, as nothing. In Romeo and Juliet, Juliet Capulet to me seems to be the most tragic of all Shakespeare's women characters. She fell in love with Romeo Montague, the enemy. She had to "sneak out" to the balcony late at night so she can talk to her Romeo. She has made no mention of Romeo to her parents, only the nurse that attended her. That shows us how treacherous and devious Juliet had to be to be with her Romeo. With some communication between the nurse and Friar Laurence, eventually, Juliet and Romeo got married. Then her parents announced that she was to marry County Paris. Which she does not want to marry Paris at all for two reasons: she loves Romeo and she is already married. To end it all, she had to kill herself to live with Romeo for the rest of her life, which is romeo, herself, because, death, portia, juliet, brutus, died, tragic, play, ophelia, loved, act, out, one, scene, love, end, women, should, kill, four, father, decided, dead, about, way, two, thing, seems, role, plays, nothing, much, mouth, madness
