Week 7

Week 7


-Breifly read through the whole book again. You should be clear of the whole story.

What could have been done to prevent all the deaths?
Since the prince knows about the hate between the Capulet and Montague, he should set and order which is asking them to move out of town Verona, somewhere far apart from each other. This slims down the percentage of seeing each other in town and started to fight, which eventually lead to deaths when the fight is too violence. Also, Romeo would not have meet Juliet and the tragedy would not have begin.
One of the head of the family can take the initiative to build peace and bond with the other head of the family. They can do so by asking the prince for help in arranging them to meet and sit down peacefully and calmly and talk. When both families are friends, it is unlikely for them to start a fight out of no reason hence, it can decreases the number of deaths.
Tybalt could also help to prevent Mercutio's death and his own death only if he is not so impulsive. However, he is always welcoming troubles and goes around provoting people, just like how he provoke Romeo in Act 3 Scene 1. His hot tempered causes him to end up fighting with Mercutio and the poor MErcutio is killed by Tybalt. In oreder to revenge for the dead Mercutio, Romeo kills Tybalt in return. If only Tybalt chose not to fight, he could save Mercutio and as much as his own precious life. Therefore, i think that it would serve best that Tybalt is banish to other town so that he will not creates more troubles and end up in more deaths. Also, Romeo could also make the diffent by not killing Tybalt as an act of being loyal to Mercutio.
Juliet could chose to tell Lord Capulet the truth that the person that she loves is actually Romeo and not Paris. By doing his, she does not need to drink the potion and it will not lead to Paris death. Paris is killed by Romeo in the vault when he wants to kill Romeo. If Juliet has not drink that potion, surely she willc ome and prevent all this death. However, Juliet is already unconscious after drinking the potion. Then Romeo thought that Juliet is dead and hence, he bought poison to kill himself. Also, Juliet would not kill herself if Romeo has not drink that poison.



Would and Should your character have done anything differently?
Nurse should have tell out the truth to Lord Capulet that the boy that Juliet like is Romeo instead of Paris. This can prevent Juliet from drinking the potion and also Paris and Romeo would have die.
Nurse should not have married them secretly. She should have discussed with Lord Capulet about it then ask Romeo go and tell and Lord Montague about it also. In this way, both families have no choice but to be family in law and this will eventually prevent all the death, especially Romeo's, Juliet's and Paris's death.
Nurse could be more alert during the day before Paris and Juliet's wedding, If she is more resilence, she could realise that something is wrong with Juliet as she suddenly want to marry Paris. Nurse could also observe Juliet movement by staying with her in the bedroom and ask her about her plan instead of leaving her alone.
