Consider how Shakespeare's form and content work together in Romeo and Juliet. What forms does Shakespeare use? When does he use them? Consider the poetic and literary devices. Do you think the form of Shakespeare's works strengthens and reinforces the content? Or not? Using examples you remember from the play, argue whether or not you think Shakespeare's form effectively contributes to the story of Romeo and Juliet.

Answer:

Most of Romeo and Juliet is, however, written in blank verse, and much of it in strict iambic pentameter, with less rhythmic variation than in most of Shakespeare's later plays. In choosing forms, Shakespeare matches the poetry to the character who uses it.

Romeo uses a lot of metaphors to describe things about Juliet and himself. He uses them when he says she is "compared to a summers day" and such like that. I makes him a very romantic and dramatic character, progressing his character to show how romantic he really is and such.

Romeo says to Juliet "My lips, two blushing pilgrims" (Act 1 Scene 5, Line 100), this shows that Romeo wants to start a 'pilgrimage' or journey of love with Juliet and the 'blushing pilgrim' symbolise his initial embarrassment of kissing her with passion and his actual lips as well. Moreover, the use of religious imagery shows that Romeo's love to Juliet is a serious thing and is too strong to resist. So therefore, Romeo is unable to turn back, which means that he is caught up in the powers of fate. In the balcony scene, Shakespeare portrays Romeo as a lovesick man, through changing some of his characteristics (as he is in love) such as despite of sex, being fickle, and going for only pretty faces. Shakespeare completely changed the setting to the previous scene as well as the atmosphere, actions, mood and even language used. The previous scene (Act 1 Scene 5) was the party and within that, the atmosphere was completely opposite of balcony scene (Act 2 Scene 2), everyone was shouting, hardly romantic and loads of loud noises. In this scene (Act 2 Scene 2), it is all calm, peaceful and romantic; therefore, the atmosphere is perfect for expressing his love to Juliet as she has stolen his heart. He says "But soft, what light through her window breaks?... It is east, and Juliet is the sun". Shakespeare uses metaphor, which mentions Juliet as a very bright Sun that shines through her window.

Romeo continues "Well, Juliet, I will lie with thee tonight" Romeo decided he'd sooner die, than live without Juliet's love, this also shows that he has changed back to a hot headed man. Moreover, Romeo knows that Friar would think of a plan for him and Juliet, so if he was not such a hot headed man, he would probably go to see friar before making his own decision. Shakespeare uses double meaning in word 'lie'. The first meaning is lie as in death and the second one is lie as a husband would with his wife. This also proves that his love to Juliet if stronger than death, which is again a big contrast between love and death. As you can see, love wins against death, as Romeo chose to keep his love after life. There is another contrast in this statement 'Juliet, tonight', as Juliet was portrayed many times as a bright light, angel and tonight can be related to the death. This again shows the theme in this scene 'death' and 'life' or 'love' and 'hate'. In my conclusion, the audience can see Romeo's different personalities throughout the play. His characteristics changes, when he gets to know Juliet, who has greatly changed his life. Romeo's thought on love, and his outlook on life, both dramatically change. Shakespeare also portrays Romeo as an impulsive, young and confused man. His passion and youthfulness makes him an extremely likeable character. Romeo is also portrayed as a very romantic man, who finds a true love at the end

THIS ENGLISH PAPER IS WRITTEN BY A PAPER SERVICE ONLINE.

Two wolves is an adventure novel with action in it, and some parts consist of humor. The story also involves a conflict where Ben tries to fight the physical world and childishness. The book begins when Ben Silver arrives home from school and is trying to shoot an animation movie in his bedroom when the police arrive. Immediately after the police leave, Ben's parents come and inform him that they have to leave for a family vacation. Ben and his sister Olive get ready and are in the car, but Ben realizes that something is weird since their family never goes on vacation. Since childhood, Ben wanted to become a detective making his father nicknamed him 'cop.' Ben is a quick thinker and realizes that his parents have done something wrong and are on the run. Ben makes up his mind to find out what had happened so that he can uncover his parents. Ben is depicted as the protagonist in the novel, while his father is the antagonist. This paper compares how the author presents the protagonist and the antagonists through various characters.
The two wolves, good and bad, are presented through Ben Silver and Ray, respectively. Ben, being the excellent wolf, has trouble interacting with friends because he is overweight hence has few friends, and the relationship with his parents is complex (Bancks, 12). Ray teases Ben by calling him a boy and a girl, whereas his mother helps him lose weight. Ben is a chubby kid whose only aim in life is to finish his movie and hang out with his friends. A good thing about Ben is that he is a creative child, which helps him escape the reality that is depressing according to him.
Ben is in a dilemma between revealing what his parents have done and protecting his family. Ben is also a very protective and responsible character since he takes care of his sister. The good wolf is kind, compassionate, and humble. Ben tried hard to protect his sister from what is going on in the family. Although Ben's father is not kind, Ben learns how to mind his business to avoid getting punished. (Bancks, 24)
The antagonist is Ray, who is a skinny man who is serious. The lousy wolf, Ray, has a lot of lies, anger, regrets, and greed. Ray has also done a lot of jobs, including; salesman, ex-mechanic, and motor wrecker. Ben thinks his father is an opportunist to the extent that when someone mistakenly transfers a large sum of money to his account, he moves the money for the owner not to recover it. It seems that Ray learned his criminal activities from his father, who was also a criminal and would hide in his old cabin in case there was a search for him. Ray did not have a good father figure since he did not spend a lot of time with his father. However, Ray wanted to create a good connection with his children, which is impossible since Ben fears his father (Homeyer, 13).
In conclusion, Ray has engaged in some criminal acts making it hard for the children because they also have to hide from the police. The whole family is affected by the deeds of Ray is isolated from their everyday life and friends. April, Ben's mother, is aware of her husband's act but hides from the children to protect them and keep the family united. Ben's character makes him realize something is wrong, which is the least of what his father expected. Ray always thought of Ben negatively because of his appearance. The novel ends with Ben torn between his own family because of protecting her sister.
