    Learn how to write about more than one interpretation for the top grades.
    Take opposing views about the role of the Friar in bringing peace to Verona, but upsetting the social order.
    About Romeo and Juliet's love representing the passion of the individual, or the error of challenging social conventions.
    Relate their marriage to the potential tragedy of Shakespeare's marriage to Ann Hathaway.
    Or alternatively, understand the play as a celebration of his own marriage in contrast to social conventions of Verona and Shakespeare's audience.
    Find alternative perspectives on the Nurse, so that she is both hero and villain.
    See how a contemporary audience might well have seen Capulet as a model father.

    Another piece of context to go with Tybalt's death coming after the marriage could be that Shakespeare lost a son around the time he was writing Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare could be indicating how marriage leads to disaster - had he not married Anne Hathaway, he would not have had a son and this tragic loss of young, promising life would not have occurred, similar to how if Romeo had not married Juliet, he would not be feeling this compassion towards Tybalt, and could have prevented the deaths of two young men.

    Just an idea about the part where you discuss what parents are supposed to take out of the play, whether to give their
    children more or less freedom, maybe neither was Shakespears intention - is there a reading where it's talking to the
    parents, comparing their feuds and petty battles to something irrational, with the threat of their children dying if they continue the behavior?

    hello , thanks for making such an in depth video about romeo and juliette. im not a student, but when i was a child i thought romeo and juliette were rather selfish or silly, considering how the couldve gone around the circumstances, or ive often heard that tjey shouldve just waited a bit longer etc.
    as an adult now, i really feel bad for thm, and i really hope more adults can reflect on the story, especially anyone who has kids. its unfortunate that their childrens love and unity had to wb sacrificed for society. wether fate ot not, its sad their fanilies and society really pushed them to the point they got to.

    Sorry but if I understand what you were saying at 27:05 is that if I make a silly mistake, an examiner can mark me down because he/she is in their feelings. Whether it be frustrated that the mistake has been made several times or maybe for example in The Merchant of Venice I bluntly say that Portia is racist when I could say that she discriminating and the person is offended I COULD GET A LOWER MARK??? After all my hard work?? Some random person who doesn't know me can be in their feelings and mark me down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
