(Prompt A) In the beginning of act 3, it begins with Benovolio and Romeo walking in a hot day. There they saw Tybalt, one of the Capulet's and started to fight the Montague. Sadly Tybalt killed one of the Montagues and made Romeo angry and Romeo killed Tybalt. When the news was spread, the prince of Verona wanted Romeo to be executed out of Verona. So the when the nurse heard the news, she quickly rushed and told Juliet that Tybalt was dead. So then Juliet whispered to herself and hoped that Romeo could come to there wedding.
(Prompt C)
Tybalt-Why did you kill one of the Montagues?
Romeo-Why didn't you fight Tybalt at the first place?
Juliet-Do you still love Romeo?
Nurse-Are you mad at Romeo?
Benovolio-Why didn't you help Romeo fight Tybalt?
To answer your first question about why Tybalt killed a montague it is because he was trying to honor his families name and was mad at Romeo, but because Romeo would not fight he decided to fight Mercutio instead.
ReplyDeleteThese are interesting questions. However, I think Tybalt killed Mercutio because Mercutio went aggressive and pulled out a sword. Tybalt might've not attacked either of them if Mercutio didn't draw his sword.
ReplyDeleteTo answer your third question I think Juliet still loves Romeo because she understands how volatile the feud between their families is and she knows that it is not Romeo's fault that Tybalt murdered his friend, but it was Romeo's duty to stop Tybalt by making him understand that it is not okay for him to continue his reckless streak. Unfortunately, the situation escalated and resulted in Tybalt's death.
