Is the book Romeo and Juliet fiction?

Answer 1

Romeo and Juliet is a work of fiction.

It was written by William Shakespeare and published in 1597, becoming one of his most famous works.


Many silly people base that the story is fictional purely on the ending of it - arguing that there is no such thing as a poison that will make someone seem dead and them come back to life. In fact, there is such a poison, it's called tetrodotoxin.
Regardless of the believability of the ending, it is a work of fiction anyway.

Answer 2

The Love Death or love tragedy is sadly, a time tested plot device. The basic story or those similar can be fournd in various Greco-Roman myths such as Thisbe and Pyramus- where an animal attack is involved. In most cases the parents or adult community do not approve of the "star-crossed Lovers" so a certain delinquent motif is present, also. There are a number of stories along these lines in Greek Mythology all ending tragically.
