Question

WILL GIVE BRAINIEST! The best way to determine the social context of Romeo and Juliet would be __________.

Answer 1

The best way to determine the social context of Romeo and Juliet would be B: to research the role of women during the author's time.

One of the main similarities between Shakespeare's time and its play is the local family household which follows a patriarchal structure; one masculine leader owns total control over his subjects who must show obedience to him.  For example, this is reflected on the way Lord Capulet answers Juliet when she rejects marrying Paris, his choice for her: "Hang thee, young baggage! Disobedient wretch!", "An you be mine, I'll give you to my friend.", "An you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets..."

Answer 2

I would think B, But i'm not 100% on that, hope this helped!
