From Shmoop Literature on Romeo and Juliet

In A Nutshell

William Shakespeare wrote the tragedy of Romeo and Julietaround 1595. Arguably the most famous love story of all time, this play tells the tale of a boy and a girl from warring families who meet and fall in love. Fate is not on their side, however, and they eventually choose to kill themselves rather than live without each other.

Because the play has always been popular with audiences, some scholars have refused to take Romeo and Juliet too seriously. They sometimes dismiss it as Shakespeare's trashy blockbuster, not complicated enough to be "high art." It's easy to think the play is nothing more than a tearjerker plot and a collection of pick up lines so cheesy they've become clichés. ("O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo," etc.) But Romeo and Juliet is more than a love story.

Romeo and Juliet are based on true love that didn't get a chance, because Romeo thought Juliet was dead, so he bribed an apothecary to sell him poison till he finally gave in. Romeo went to the Capulet's tomb and tried to kill himself next to Juliet but Paris got in the way of that, so Romeo and Paris fought and Paris ended up dying. Paris asked to be put near Juliet's body in the Capulet's tomb and Romeo agreed. After that was all said and done, Romeo's servant ran to get some help, and by then Romeo had drank the poison and already died... Blah Blah Blah go read the whole story, Juliet awakes and sees every thing and wants to kill herself, she kisses Romeo hoping to get some of the poison but it doesn't work, pressure builds up of the arriving guards and so Juliet takes Romeo's dagger and stabs herself.

If you want more facts, Go and read the WHOLE story.

Juliet is the lead female character, the controversial star-crossed love interest for Romeo. Both characters are Italian, yet for some odd reason they have English sounding surnames. No, Montague is not the curator of the Classic-car museum, Lord Montagu of Beaulieu. the place is haunted, but Lord Beaulieu ( pronounced roughly- Byooi-lee) has only seen Rolls Royce Silver Ghosts and Phantoms in the museum garages!
