Is Romeo and Juliet's first dialog a soliloquy?

No dialogue is a soliloquy which is one person speaking alone to the audience. A dialogue is two characters speaking to each other. Romeo and Juliet's first dialogue takes the form of a fourteen-line poem called a sonnet.


How did Shakespeare write about love?

Well, that's a very vague question. First of all, you have to categorize "love". Many people who do not study Shakespeare consider his sonnets to be epitome of a "love" poem, however this is not always the case. Shakespeare often speaks about the objects of his desire with backhanded compliments and disconnected metaphors. Also, there is a huge confusion as to who these love poems are actually written about - was it another man? The Queen of England? Did Shakespeare even write these love poems? In order to get a better answer, please rephrase the question or ask it more clearly.


What happened to Shakespeare's first theater in 1613?

The first Globe burned down on June 29, 1613 during a performance of Shakespeare's Henry VIII. But it is misleading to call it "Shakespeare's first theatre". Shakespeare was not the owner of it and nobody at the time would ever have associated it particularly with Shakespeare, but rather with Richard Burbage, the famous actor who with his brother owned half of the theatre. It was not the first theatre to see Shakespeare act or the first to see his plays performed. It was the first theatre Shakespeare invested in in a small way (the second was the Blackfriars) and only in this sense can it be thought of as his first theatre.

What facts do we learn from hamlets first soliloquy?

Nothing much more than Claudius has already told us, that "of Hamlet our dear brother's death the memory (is) green" and he has taken "our sometime sister, now our queen . . . to wife." Of course we learn a great deal about how Hamlet feels about his father, his mother and his uncle, and things generally: "How weary, stale, flat and unprofitable seem to me all the uses of this world".
