The analysis stated that Romeo and Juliet have two themes,
love and hate. Although the story is a love story about two persons, this
art of William Shakespeare also contains a lot of hate, the example of it is
the hate of two families with each other. The art contains a lot of laughter,
happiness and sadness that’s why the story became the most artistic art
of Shakespeare because of the mixed emotions that is applied to the story
ca affect the mood o the readers and viewers. Social barriers is also a
theme of the story because of hardships that Romeo and Juliet go through
because of their family. Their time is also a problem to them as well as the
historical context of it.
The William Shakespeare work "Romeo and Juliet" is the subject
of the critique. The author of the analysis utilized a variety of terminology,
all of which are helpful for readers in understanding the critical analysis
