Read the excerpt from "How the Grimm Brothers Saved the Fairy Tale." Between 1812 and 1857, seven editions of their tales appear

ed, each one different from the last, until the final, best-known version barely resembled the first. Given that the first edition has recently been honored in bicentenary celebrations throughout the world, it is perhaps a good time to reexamine what we think we know about the original tales of the Brothers Grimm. What is the author's purpose in writing this paragraph? to persuade the reader that the Grimm brothers were influential to entertain the reader with excerpts from the Grimms' tales to inform the reader that the text will take a second look at the Grimms’ original tales to show the reader that the Grimms have received many honors

<u>Character: Juliet </u>

A. What would you do differently?

In the main plot, Juliet can not fall in love with Romeo, that love is forbidden and no matter how hard they try, no one will allow it. Juliet is forced to marry the Count of Paris and it is here when she carries out the plan of drinking a postage that makes her look dead until Romeo comes for her and they escape together.

If I were Juliet I would never have taken the poster without knowing if it really worked or not, it was a really risky decision, I had to try it first with an animal, in addition, if I were Julieta I would have waited for Romeo's response, even though Romeo  was very much in love with Juliet, it was a decision that the two should make and agree with.


Because Juliet did not make sure that Romeo received her message (he never received it) the whole plan failed and Romeo, believing that Julieta was dead, drank the poison and died at her side, when she wakes up she can not stand what was happening and killed herself with a dagger. If I were Juliet I would not have committed suicide in this way, committing suicide would not solve any of the problems or revive Romeo. I would have tried to revive Romeo till the end, take him to the nurse or someone who could help him.

What would you do just as the character did?

If I were Juliet and I was in the dilemma of falling in love with someone my family hated I would have done the same as her, I would have also fought for the love I felt, I would have challenged my family because even though they' re my parents, the right to love who I love is only mine. I would also have tried to escape with Romeo but I would have planned it better.

B. Write a modern-day scene based off that character and story. Will this character’s differences define him/her? Or, will he/she expand beyond those differences?

If Romeo and Julieta were developed at the present time many of the conversations would be through chat messages and it would be something like this:



Mr. Montesco: Juliet, I already told you that I will not allow you to go out with that filthy son of the Montagues. You know that they are the worst neighbors we can have, I hate them and they hate us.


Juliet: But dad!! Romeo and I really love each other, we are not interested in the conficts that our relatives have

.

Mr. Montesco: Of course not Juliet! He does not love you, surely it's just another deceit from the Montagues


<em>Juliet cries with rage and goes to her room and starts chatting with Romeo</em>

Juliet: Hello Romeo! I have already discussed with my father about our relationship but this will be impossible. But do not worry, a few days ago I was reviewing a page on the internet called the friar of a scientist named Lawrence, in one of his blogs he gives a recipe for a magic juice that will leave me asleep for 48 hours, my parents will not know, you can come for me and we will escape together to Matua to be happy.


<em>But Juliet didn't know that Romeo lost his cell phone while playing soccer with his friends and never saw the message </em>



In this last scene I re-create what would be the final part of Romeo and Juliet, feel free to add more things.


<u>I honestly think that if Romeo and Juliet happened today it would be very different: D What do you think?</u>

vladimir1956 [14]
Macbeth is completely and solely responsible for his own downfall. He lead himself to defeat by falling to his fatal flaws. Manipulation, ambition, and power got the better of him creating great inner turmoil, and bringing him to an abrupt end. From the beginning Macbeth was able to choose his own fate.
