The Summarization of the Themes in Romeo and Juliet

Theme 1: The Forcefulness of Love The forcefulness of love in this story Romeo and Juliet, has been imposed by the two unlucky families of the Capulets and the Montagues that has been occurring in many generations, so the two families can come together in peace. Love is a brutal and powerful emotion that captures in individuals to come together and catapult themselves against the world and their families. In this story, families enforce relationships with another family to result in peace with eachother. Examples of enforcing relationships are when Romeo has to marry Rosaline and Juliet has to marry Paris no matter what the circumstances are. At a feast, which involves the two families, young lovers Romeo and Juliet drive to defy their entire social world between their families. This love portrays the passion in being in love throughout the story to a tragic conclusion, which takes into account the forcefulness of love. Theme 2: Love as a Cause of Violence Love has a romantic meaning, which shouldnt be tolerated as a cause of violence. Even though both families have an agreement of already arranged marriages, Romeo and Juliet put those circumstances aside and put love in front of families. Romeo and Juliet are passionate lovers with eachother and couldnt go on with the interception of the two families, so to put both families in peace, the resolution results in a double death: to live with eachother in heaven. Love emerges as an amoral thing that leads to as much destruction as to happiness. This phrases represents another phrase, When one door closes, another door opens. To conclude this statement, this evitable conclusion is violence over love. Theme 3: The Individual verse Society. The individual has more rights to themselves rather than the society because it is disturbing for an individual to be controlled by a person or society. However, this law i snt consisted with this story: the parents control all the family members in the family. This power is mainly structured by the fathers control of action over the family members because he doesnt want anyone to be apart from the family; so whatever the father says, its a law. In most scenarios couples uphold the belief and traditions of Christianity, but however, it is lost in this story when there is suicide. The main example in this story is when Tybalt and Mercutio brawl against eachother to regain power over eachother: so honor becomes power in the battle of the two families. The individual of a person shouldnt be controlled over the society.
