The central idea of love versus hate is present throughout act 1 and 2. This is developed by the Rivalry of the Capulets and Montagues. This develops the central idea since the rivalry causes forbidden love of the 2 main character Romeo and Juliet since their last names. The central idea is developed also by the love Rome and Juliet since without it there would be no story of the forbidden love. One Central idea in scene one in Romeo and Juliet is love and how "love at first sight" is very true for both of them. When Romeo sees Juliet for the very first time, he immediately starts talking about her beauty and his immediate love for her. He says, "O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!" This shows how he thinks Juliet is a very attractive person. He also says, "Did my heart love till now?" This shows he's doubting his love he previously had for other women, like Rosaline, and no he is truly in love with Juliet "at first sight. Per. 1 12/12 Notes 7
12/16/16 Today's writing sample: Romeo and Juliet's love can be considered beautiful. False The 'love" that they have for each other can't be beautiful because it isn't even considered love. They just met at a party that wasn't even meant for Romeo to be there. In act I Scene 5, Romeo says "Did my heart love till not? forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night." Really? Didn't say that about Rosaline. Act III sc. 1 movie/mood/tone comparison continued. Examine language of scene in the Shakespeare ience books.
