We're led to believe that Shakespeare used iambic pentameter for the dialogue of noble characters sense they were fully literate and commanded a more elegant way of speech, or at least that's what we draw from the times. A commoner would speak in black verse/prose since they aren't fully literate and don't have as good of a command of language. It was also a way to pick out those of lesser stance while reading/watching the play, so the audience would know what their place in society is to understand the play better.

Sedbober [7]

His confidence is transformed by the crowd’s response.

Scotty is described as being a "quavering husk...just moments before." This shows his lack of confidence and anxiety about being on stage. Once the crowd's enthusiasm and excitement for his performance reached him, it is described as "lifting him off his stool...unleashing something strong, charismatic, and fierce." This change in his demeanor shows his confidence grow in response the crowd.

Discuss whether Shakespeare's adaptation of the historic love story Romeo and Juliet places an emphasis on moral behavior. Use e
coldgirl [10]
An emphasis on moral behavior (and the questioning of it) is at the core of "Romeo and Juliet". The main conflict revolves around it: how ethical it is to fall in love with my family's enemy? During the course of the drama, this moral question transforms into another one: How ethical it is to hate other people in the first place, based only on their surname?

The ethical question gets especially complicated when Juliet thinks about marrying Paris. To her, it seems as if she would betray Romeo, which she would never do; but the paradox is that if she betrayed Romeo, she would undo the betrayal of her family. In spite of that, she doesn't want to give up on her loyalty to Romeo. In Act 4, Scene 1, she says:

JULIET 
O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris,
From off the battlements of yonder tower,
Or walk in thievish ways, or bid me lurk
Where serpents are. Chain me with roaring bears;
Or shut me nightly in a charnel house,
O'ercovered quite with dead men's rattling bones,
With reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls.
Or bid me go into a new-made grave
And hide me with a dead man in his shroud
<span>(Things that, to hear them told, have made me </span>
   tremble),
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
<span>To live an unstained wife to my sweet love.</span>
