Which of the following is true of Shakespeares prologue to Romeo and Julie?

The prologue to Romeo and Juliet provides a summary of the play's plot and introduces the theme of fate. It also suggests that the love between the two main characters is doomed from the start.


Who is narrator of shakespeares Othello?

Shakespeare's Othello has no narrator. Some of his plays, such as Romeo and Juliet or Henry V have what is called a chorus who opens each act with a description of what is to come. The Chorus in Romeo and Juliet describes the plot of the entire play in his famous opening speech. In Henry IV the Prologue is Rumour, bringing false news to the Percy family. Comedies like Midsummer Night's Dream and As You Like It have epilogues spoken by one of the characters. None of these is a true narrator who comments on the action we see on the stage. The only Shakespearean play with a narrator is Pericles. In conclusion, Othello has no chorus, prologue, or epilogue, and definitely no narrator.

Did shakespeare really write the prologue to Romeo and Juliet There is some question about the authorship since it doesn't appear in the Folio of 1623?

It is true that the famous prologue does not appear in the Folio version of Romeo and Juliet. It does, however, appear in the Quarto versions of 1599, 1609 and 1622 in the form we know it, and in the first Quarto of 1597 in somewhat garbled form. In all of the Quarto versions, the Prologue is printed on a separate page before the play starts, and the printer may just have missed it when setting the type. I've included a link to a facsimile of Q2 so you can see what I mean. Since it is included in all Quarto versions of the plays, and the prologue to Act 2 is not omitted in the Folio, it's probably reasonable to assume that the omission of the general prologue is a printer's error, and was a genuine part of the play.

How many lines are in the prologue of shakespeare's romeo and Juliet?

Of course an easy way of determining this would be to read it - it is available free of charge at the library or under books.google.com Having said that: Shakespeare wrote in iambic (2) pentameter (5) which means that virtually all of the lines in his plays, unless he wanted the scene to be odd or other worldly, have 10 (ten) syllables. This is also true of the prologue of Romeo and Juliet.
