What is the most tragic death in English literature?

Some people would agree that it

would go to William Shakespeares Romeo and Juliet. But what it started with was that ended in
the deaths of family members of each house including the star-crossed lovers, Romeo
Montague and Juliet Capulet? Both Montague and Capulet, the fathers of the lovers, are to
blame right from the start because they let their own feelings about each other get in the way of
their childrens life .
No one is for sure about how the feud started except William himself but if you clue in
details about the place and the time you could say in the city of Verona, each noble family have
a certain status of power. Unfortunately both the Montague and the Capulet house were named
the in status. But the Heads of each house didnt like that. So thats how the feud started. Now
that each house is clawing at each others throats, Montague and Capulet are calling all the
shots. Citizens are getting caught in the crossfire. This is Where civil blood makes civil hands
unclean (Pro.4). Because Montague and Capulet ar calling all the shots it seems that it will
never end. They keep fighting over whos better than each other. A different way to think about is
its like a bunch of 6 year olds saying that girls are better than boys or vise versa. Capulet did
show that they can take a break from the feud to enjoy the fun they were having at the Capulet
party. Tybalt wanted to prove himself and challenge Romeo but Capulet says,
Content thee, gentle coz, let him alone,
He bears him like a portly gentleman;
And, to say truth, Verona brags of him
To be a virtuous and well-governd youth.
I would not for the wealth of all this time
Here in my house do him disparagement;
Therefore be patient, take no note of him:
It is my will, the which if thou respect,
Show a fair presence and put off these frowns,
An ill-beseeming semblance for a feast. (1.5.65-74)
He did not want anything to ruin the party and things could have gotten much worse if he let
Tybalt challenge Romeo.
If you follow the way that Montague and Capulet treat their children clues in on their
characteristics. In the first couple scenes in Act 1, Capulet sort of makes sure Juliet would like
Paris when he asked for her hand in marriage. That was fair of him to let her grow to like him
and not just forcing her into something that would make her miserable. But close to the end after
Juliet marries Romeo, he gets very upset that she wont marry Paris. He even threatened to
kick her out and disown her by saying,
Gods bread! it makes me mad.
Day, night, hour, tide, time, work, play,
Alone in company, still my care hath been
To have her matchd; and now having now provided
A gentleman of noble parentage,
Of fair demesnes, youthful and nobly triand
Stuffd, as they say, with honourable parts,
Proportiond as ones thought would wish a man;
And then to have a wretched puling fool,

A whining mammet, in her fortunes tender,

To answer, Ill not wed; I cannot love,
I am too young; I pray you, pardon me.
But, an you will not wed, Ill pardon you
Graze where you will, you shall not house with me.
Look to t, think on t, I do not use to jest.
Thursday is near; lay hand on heart, advise.
An you be mine, Ill give you to my friend;
An you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets,
For, by my soul, Ill neer acknowledge thee,
Nor what is mine shall never do thee good.
Trust tot, bethink you; Ill not be forsworn. (3.5.176-197)
Hannah - A good start here. Your structure is pretty good overall, but make sure your topic
sentence is clear and linked to your thesis. Make sure your discussions explain how the feud
causes negative events to occur. Also, continue to take your time on proofreading.
