First of all, it is important to remember that Shakespeare wrote nothing in any of his plays for the benefit of readers, because the plays are not meant to be read. They are meant to be watched.
Shakespeare does remind us of the feud after introducing it to us in the first scene. In Scene 2, the illiterate servant says, "If you be not of the house of Montague, I pray come and crush a cup of wine." According to the servant at any rate, Montagues are not welcome at the party.
We hear that theme later when Tybalt spots Romeo at the party. He says "Uncle, this is a Montague, our foe." and proposes to throw Romeo out of the party just for being one. At this time we also hear that not all the Capulets hate the Montagues for being Montagues, because Capulet himself praises Romeo and insists that Tybalt not interfere with him, an echo of a sentiment expressed by Capulet in Scene 2.
Finally as the Act closes, and Romeo and Juliet discover each others' surnames, they each remind us of the existence of the feud. He says, "my life is in my foe's debt" and she says "I must love a loathed enemy".
Scene 1. Tybalt: What! Drawn, and talk of peace? I hate the word, as I hate Hell, all Montagues and thee!
Scene 2. Servant: My master is the great rich Capulet, and if you be not of the house of Montagues, I pray, come and crush a cup of wine.
Scenes 3 and 4 do not refer to the feud at all.
Scene 5. Tybalt: Uncle, this is a Montague, our foe, a villain that is hither come in spite to scorn at our solemnity this night."
Romeo: Is she a Capulet? O dear account! My life is my foe's debt.
Juliet: My only love sprung from my only hate! . . . Prodigious birth of love it is to me that I should love a loathéd enemy.

By the use of certain settings
He had to face the feud between the Capulets and Montagues.
No. He was English through and through.
shakespeare in the Winter's tale
Columbus lived 199 years before Shakespeare, and I think the news had probably got through.
Anne Shakespeare probably died of the plague, which was making a tour through Stratford at about that time.
He had to face the feud between the Capulets and Montagues.
Tybalt was the son of Lady Capulet's brother, and thus Juliet's first cousin. Although he had no relation to the Capulets except through his aunt's marriage, he was the biggest supporter of the feud with the Montagues.
He gets angry and says that whoever starts another fight shall be executed.
In the play "Romeo and Juliet" by William Shakespeare, Friar Laurence is cleared of blame when the truth about the secret marriage of Romeo and Juliet is revealed. This is done through Friar Laurence's confession and the Prince's discovery of the letters exchanged between Friar Laurence and the tragic lovers, which prove his intentions were to unite the couple and end the feud between their families.
The quarrel between the Montagues and Capulets reveals the deep-seated animosity and rivalry that exist in Verona's society. It highlights the importance of family feuds and honor, often resulting in violence and tragedy. The feud symbolizes a culture where grudges are passed down through generations, leading to conflict and discord among its people.
Because the familys do not want Romeo and Juliet to be lovers
In Act 1 of Romeo and Juliet, the suspense is set through the feud between the Capulets and Montagues, leading to tension and conflict in Verona. Additionally, the forbidden love between Romeo and Juliet is introduced, creating anticipation for their relationship to unfold against the backdrop of their warring families.
In Act 1 of Romeo and Juliet, the concern with avoiding civil strife is evident through the initial feud between the Montagues and Capulets, as well as Prince Escalus's warning that those who disturb the peace will face consequences. The families' conflict sets the stage for the tragic events that follow, highlighting the detrimental effects of civil strife on individuals and society. Shakespeare's portrayal of this conflict serves as a cautionary tale about the destructive nature of discord within a community.
The play Romeo and Juliet is all about hate and love and everything in it is communicated through the use of language. The best answer is to plunk down a copy of the play and say, "Here is all the language Shakespeare uses to explore love and hate in this play." Character is developed not only through language but through action. For example, we see Tybalt so driven by his obsession with fighting with Montagues that he pursues Romeo all over town in order to fight with him. He is a man dominated by hate: "Peace? I hate the world, as I hate hell, all Montagues, and thee."
He thought it might reconcile their families. Not something he really thought through, I'm afraid.
In Act 5, Scene 2 of "Romeo and Juliet," the hope for their salvation lies in the reconciliation between the Montagues and Capulets following the tragic deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Through the sacrifice of their children, the families may finally learn to put aside their feud and find peace. This reconciliation at the end of the play hints at the possibility of healing and redemption.
