Many topics from "The Things They Carried" are still relevant today, the constant theme is the horrors of war, and how they affect ill-prepared men, both physically and mentally. Many of the items they carry are symbolic as well as practical, used as a reflection of their own battles, and serve as a bridge between their fantasy world and reality.

Ultimately, their psychological baggage becomes the hindrance that leads them to their death.

According to Juliet, what might be Friar Laurence's motivation for giving her poison?
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. He wants to save Juliet from Paris and has no other way to do it.  

Explanation:

Lord Capulet wanted to marry Juliet to Paris. But she refused to do it. And Capulet threatened to disown her. Juliet went to Friar Laurence to get some advice. He came with only one idea to help her and it was to give her a potion that will make it seem like she is dead, but the potion will be used to make her sleep for a while. And Romeo would come for her. So the most suitable option is that Friar wanted to save Juliet from Paris.

aksik [14]

Explanation:

A couple differences between today and the time of Romeo and Juliet, would be age. Romeo was most likely much older than Juliet. Also in the Renaissance, loyalty was VERY important to them. (Something they kept from the middle age when people lived on lords manors) The loyalty of the Capulet and Montague was a huge thing...Use the example of Juliet's monologue when she says "a rose called by any name would smell as sweet, as would romeo were he not romeo called."
