Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare early in his career about two young star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their battling families. It was among Shakespeare's most popular plays during his lifetime and along with Hamlet, is one of his most frequently performed plays. Today, the title characters are regarded as archetypal young lovers. They are considered the perfect model for the young love.

Romeo and Juliet belongs to a tradition of tragic romances stretching back to antiquity. Shakespeare's use of his poetic dramatic structure has been praised as an early sign of his dramatic skill. The play assigns different poetic forms to different characters, sometimes changing the form as the character develops. Romeo, for example, grows more proficient at the sonnet over the course of the play.

The play is set in Verona, Italy, begins with a street fight between Montague and Capulet servants who, like their masters, are sworn enemies. Prince Escalus of Verona mediates and declares that further rupture of the peace will be punishable by death. Later, Count Paris talks to Capulet about marrying his daughter Juliet, but Capulet asks Paris to wait another two years and invites him to attend a planned Capulet ball. Lady Capulet and Juliet's nurse try to persuade Juliet to accept Paris's courtship. But contrary to everyone’s wishes and better fate Juliet fall in love with one of the Montagues, Romeo, and the tragedy properly starts.

julia-pushkina [17]

The correct answer is all people.


The Framers of the Constitution and people who wrote the Declaration of Independence wanted everyone to be equal, to have the same unalienable rights that no one could take away from them. All people should be treated the same, regardless of their sex, skin color, political affiliations, religion, etc.

Read the excerpt from a letter Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote while imprisoned in Birmingham Jail in 1963. One who breaks an unju
Reil [10]

  Martin Luther King's efforts were inspired by Thoreau's definition of Civil Obedience being his words an extension of Thoreau's in his text. Both of them went to jail under a law that they resisted to, which is a form of peaceful political protest.  In the Thoreau's "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" we get the same message that we get from King's letter:

   "<em>Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison</em>."

<em>    (...) It is there that the fugitive slave, and the Mexican prisoner on parole, and the Indian come to plead the wrongs of his race, should find them; on that separate, but more free and honorable ground, where the State places those who are not with her but against her,—the only house in a slave-state in which a free man can abide with honor.</em> <em>If any think that their influence would be lost there, and their voices no longer afflict the ear of the State, that they would not be as an enemy within its walls, they do not know by how much truth is stronger than error, nor how much more eloquently and effectively he can combat injustice who has experienced a little in his own person."</em>

<em>  </em>    The excerpt above it's similar to Luther King's because it shows that even from jail, the one who find a law to be unjust and suffers it's penalty, is able to show society how unjust this law is, this attitude may change the law quicker , as many just men suffers from it.
