No. Romeo and Juliet is a doomed love story tragedy about two lovers who come from feuding families who are ill fated and who die because their parents hate each other. Star Wars is about a rebellion of the forces of the good (the Jedi) versus the evil Sith Lord Emperor Sideous. The Sith Lord has an evil ally Darth Vader (Anakin Skywalker) who is the father of a Jedi Knight (Luke) and a Princess (Lelia). Star Wars is nothing like Romeo and Juliet. It is in the 6th episode of Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi, that we find out Luke and Lelia are brother and sister, and the love story is between Hans Solo, a mercenary, and Princess Lelia. There is also a love story between Anakin Skywalker and Padame, but, that is doomed, because Anakin turns to the "dark side" and Padame dies of a broken heart, after giving birth to Luke and Lelia. There is no real comparison between Star Wars and Romeo and Juliet.

Why is Juliet confused about who is dead?

because sum ediot tells her that news n she the great miss Juliet belives it and kills herself for mr.romeo...previous answer There are two times in Romeo And Juliet where Juliet believes Romeo is Dead. Firstly; ( act 3, scene 2) The Nurse walks in crying out; 'Romeo can, Though heaven cannot: O Romeo, Romeo! Who ever would have thought it? Romeo! ' then Juliet asks her what she is talking about and then she replys with I saw the wound, I saw it with mine eyes,-- God save the mark!--here on his manly breast: A piteous corse, a bloody piteous corse; Pale, pale as ashes, all bedaub'd in blood, All in gore-blood; I swounded at the sight. Now Juliet believes she is talking about Romeo her new Husband until the Nurse states that her best friend was Tybalt and that Romeo had killed Tybalt (Juliet's cousin) Secondly; Is when she awakens from her sleep,( DURING THE END OF THE PLAY) as she had taken poison for her to sleep so she could fake her death, she awakens to see Romeo lying beside her dead so she grabs his Dagger and cries 'oh happy dagger' and stabs herself. Then the two star crossed lovers lay dead...

How does Shakespeare portray the theme of conflict in Act 1 Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet?

How does Shakespeare present conflict in act 3 scene 1?In William Shakespeare’s play ‘Romeo and Juliet’ there is alot of conflict particularly in act 3 scene 1. The audience find conflict interesting to watch because it creates drama and tension. Shakespeare uses many dramatic devices to present this; some of these techniques include foreshadowing, puns and irony to add to this effect. Another reason why Shakespeare uses conflict in the play is so that the audience are able to get attached to it and watch the conflict grow. The fact that the scene is set in a public place encourages the characters to show off, the characters do this because they want to show their strength and show people that they are not afraid. The conflict in the play was created by a family ‘feud’, the families included Montague and Capulet. Ever since the feud the families have been fighting ever since, however the conflict later on heightens because ‘star-crossed lovers’ Romeo Capulet and Juliet Montague marry, but this later on turns into a tragedy.A strong example of how conflict is presented throughout the scene would be foreshadowing. Shakespeare uses foreshadowing to let the audience know what is going to happen in upcoming scenes. This is shown when Benvolio says “we talk here in the public haunt of men”. The word ‘haunt’ foreshadows death. However the term ‘haunt’ instantly makes the audience think of ghosts and haunting. The quotation itself foreshadows the death of a character later on in the scene. Another example of foreshadowing would be when Romeo says “This but begins the woe others must end”. The use of the word ‘woe’ shows Romeo’s misfortune and misery. When he says ‘others must end’, it foreshadows more death later on the scene. The use of foreshadowing death many times in the scene will leave the audience astonished but will hint at scenes to come.


Are Romeo and Juliet victims of their families' feud?

People spend a lot of time arguing (or being forced to argue in school) over who is at fault for Romeo and Juliet's death. It's a silly argument any way you cut it. Of course the existence of the feud necessarily shaped the events that followed, in two particular ways. First, it convinced Romeo, Juliet and the Nurse that the love affair had to be kept secret. If he wasn't convinced that Capulet would shoot him on sight, Romeo would have gone right after the party straight up to him just like Paris did and said "Look. I'm the only son and heir of Montague--I'm a pretty good catch for your daughter. And what's more, we've talked and I love her and I'm pretty sure she feels the same." Capulet was not the kind of man that would force Juliet on Paris when she preferred another suitable man, but he didn't know that she preferred another guy because she was afraid to tell him. Again, Friar Lawrence agrees to marry them in an irregular way just because he hopes this will reconcile the families, then (in one of many cowardly and irrational acts he does) does not tell the families about the marriage at a time when it might have saved Romeo and Juliet's lives, because he is afraid that Capulet will be angry if he does so. And the reason Capulet would be angry is because of the feud.Of course, Capulet shows in Act 1 Scene 5 that he is actually kindly disposed towards Romeo. It is quite possible that he might have welcomed him as a son in law. It is the non-Capulets such as the servants Samson and Gregory and Tybalt (who is not a Capulet, being the son of Lady Capulet's brother as we find out in Act 3 scene 1) who are actively pursuing the feud.This is the second way in which the feud shapes the plot, by giving a reason for the antagonist Tybalt to be an antagonist. He is all for fighting Montagues, as he says in act 1 scene 1 ("Peace? I hate the word as I hate hell, all Montagues and thee"), so when he finds a Montague crashing the party in Act 1 Scene 5 he calls for his sword. Capulet tells him to shut up and not spoil the party, but Tybalt will have his fight with a Montague whether Capulet likes it or not, and so, as we hear in Act 3 Scene 1, he sends a letter challenging Romeo to Romeo's house and goes cruising the town looking for him.Tybalt's feud driven mission to fight with Romeo, together with Mercutio's equally feud driven desire to enter that fight results in both of their deaths and disaster (and extremely apt word, since "aster" is the Latin for "star", so "disaster" means "star-crossed") for Romeo. It gets him in trouble both with the authorities in the person of Prince Escalus who banishes him, and with Lady Capulet, who takes the death of Tybalt as her own personal family feud. To console Juliet she reveals that she has plans to murder Romeo in Mantua in revenge for Tybalt's death, making it well-nigh impossible for Juliet to make a clean breast of things at this late stage. The feud here has moved on and become a feud between Romeo and Lady Capulet's family.Ironically, Mercutio, who is so keen to defend the Montague family honour, is not a Montague any more than Tybalt is a Capulet. And as a footnote another non-family member, Paris, will choose because of the feud to believe that Romeo has come to Juliet's grave to desecrate it, and will make himself an instrument of the supposed Capulet wrath, insist on fighting Romeo and die in the process.So, if you ask are Romeo and Juliet victims of the feud, a sensible answer is that there are a lot of factors which play into their tragedy. It is foolish to try to isolate one of them and say "look, this is the sole reason things went wrong for these kids". And there can be no doubt that if you removed the background of ill-will between the families, the story would not have turned out so unhappily. It is a necessary if not sufficient factor.
