My project is about Romeo and Juliet.

It is one of the most popular works by the English author and, together with Hamlet and Macbeth, the one that has been performed

the most times. Although the story is part of a long tradition of tragic romances dating back to ancient times.

In a short summary:

Romeo Montesco and Juliet Capuleto are two young women that there belong to two families rivals, that they hate and live in constant

conflict. This history counts the frustrated love of these prominent figures who were furtively due to the hatred that existia between his

families and that should never approve this engagement. The rivalry of these families unleashed the death of them that, for love, they

did up to the impossible thing for being united. After the death of Romeo and Juliet, these families decide to finish with this one it

fights and they seal the peace.

In my opinion:

Romeo and Juliet have represented rebellion for following desire and passion, disregarding ordinances and advice in an Italian society

with very strict regimes at that time. This story tells a forbidden love that clings to everything including death in a very shocking novel

that is beautifully narrated with a tragic event and unfortunately a sad ending that gives an example of how far people go through love

and rivalries.
