Themes of Violence and Conflict are Central to Romeo and Juliet by Shak

Romeo and Juliet is a add written by William Shakespeare who was innate(p) in 1564 and died in 1616, during his time he wrote many plays which were prolific including Macbeth, Othello and The Tempest. subject area in Elizabethan times was marvellous entertainment. Plays would be performed almost anywhere, the theatres were forward-looking and extremely popular places for batch to meet up socialise. All sorts of people went to watch plays, from the poorest people to the richest. The poor people would stand at the seem while the richest would sit down and watch from a more convenient place. During 1592-93, Shakespeare wrote long poems instead of plays as the theatres were closed due to the plague. The people in this time were real religious and wouldn?t have allowed adore stories or anything other than force out and departure, this is why Romeo and Juliet is superseded with much craze and conflict which covers the love story in Romeo and Juliet. In Romeo and Juliet violence a nd conflict are very important as a result of the fact that cardinal families in this play dislike each other and are feuding. This causes much clangour in the play leading to a huge amount of violence and conflict.A prologue is an introduction or foreword which is used to prepare the consultation for the violence and conflict in the play. This is done when it states ?Where cultured blood makes civil hands unclean? this informs the audience that a high class family?s blood is spilt by another high class citizen. Another fibre of the prologue states ?A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life, ?Doth with their death bury their parents? strife.? This explains to the audience that two lovers kill themselves and when they die they end their parent?s trouble.Throughout title 1, S... ...s is shown when she says ?Talk not to me, for Ill not speak a word Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee.?I hypothesise Shakespeare made his play violent because in those times people were very religious and they wouldn?t have watched his plays if they wasn?t violent. This is why he couldn?t write Romeo and Juliet as just a love story as that wouldn?t have been allowed in those times, therefore he covered up the love in the play with violence and conflict.The violence in the play has the effect of turning it into a tragedy due to the amount of conflict and the death of Romeo and Juliet. It also creates the image of violence being unfair because of the deaths of so many in the play and the tragic end of the two lovers. The violence in the play has the effect of exciting the audience, causing them to worry and figure about what will happen to Romeo and Juliet.
