Romeo and Juliet is one of Shakespeare's most popular stories of young, teenage lovers. He used a very dramatic structure, and a variable switching between comedy and tragedy to heighten tension. I think every character represented in this story is crucial to the development of it but personally one of my favorite characters would be Romeo.
Romeo, being a poetry fan, is kind of inspired by all the books he reads and I think it affects in some way his personal life. After first kissing Juliet, she tells him “you kiss by the book,” saying that he is not original. I also think that the desperate love Romeo felt for Rosaline at the beginning of the story its anything but a fantasy of a non-exciting reality. And finally falling in love with Juliet in such a passionate way demonstrates the spontaneity that most of the times occurs in love stories.
In addition, another thing that I considerer interesting about Romeo is his bravery instinct when doing something’s, like for example going to his family’s rival party not caring of what may happened, just going because he wanted to. Another example of this could be the way he reaches for Juliet on her balcony hiding from everything and everyone.
Lastly I really like Romeo’s capacity of love, once again risking his life by sneaking into the garden of his enemy’s daughter shows his truly and passionate love for Juliet. Killing his wife cousin just for the love he felt for his friend when he got killed. And of course the suicide upon hearing of Juliet’s death.
In conclution this novels and his characters, mainly Romeo, shows us how living a person can be not caring his/her age and in some way it teaches us how we have to fight for our own personal desires like Romeo.
