Love is thematically universal about the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet.
Explanation:
William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" revolves around the tragic love story of two lovers amidst their family feud. The story presents a heart-wrenching and painful story of two lovers who choose death rather than be away from each other.
The most dominant and evident theme of the story is that of love. The love between Romeo and Juliet despite their families' oppositions shows the power of love and how it can make a person look beyond any worldly obstacles.
Moreover, it is this theme of love that remains the same throughout all cultural differences and time periods. Love is a universal theme that everyone can relate to, irrespective of class, society, culture, tradition, or even period one lives in. And the heartbreak of being separated from one's true love is one that everyone can relate to. It remains the same for all readers, transcending the reader's society, or the time period/ year.
Thus, the universal theme is love.
