Act 5, Scenes i ii iii
Prompt C
Paris- Would you have killed yourself if Romeo had not killed you first?
Capulet- Did you say that you will give up on your quarrel with the Montagues just to get on the Prince's good side?
Friar Lawrence- Why didn't you deliver the letter to Romeo yourself?
Juliet- Do you secretly blame Friar Lawrence for Romeo's death?
Romeo- Do you have any sword fighting in your background since you've defeated two opponents?
Prompt E
In this picture, the person is dying from a broken heart, which has magically popped out of his body. A rose remains in his left hand. This represents the death of Romeo, who killed himself when he found his true love had died. Though he did not literally die of a broken heart, Romeo's death was still caused by his realization that he would never be with his wife again, which led him to suicide.

ReplyDeleteTo answer your fourth question, I don't think that Juliet had enough time to really blame anyone for what happened. When Friar Lawrence leaves she directs her attention directly toward Romeo, and does not really have much time to think of how Romeo died or who to blame for it.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your first question, I do not think that Paris would have killed himself if Romeo had not killed him first. Paris comes to visit Juliet in the tomb to make peace with her death and brings her flowers. Although Paris loves Juliet, his entire world is not consumed by Juliet because he has many options. Furthermore, Paris has not had time to develop the same bond that Juliet and Romeo have in secret. Also, Paris may possibly be mourning his loss of a great opportunity to be married to the daughter of a powerful family as well.
