<em>How does this excerpt support the idea that the story is told by an unreliable narrator?</em>
- <em>It supports the idea that the story is told by an unreliable narrator because it has intratextual signs saying that the narrator is contradicting himself by showing that he or she does not remember the facts well. In the sentence, “Agnes said she had seen no one, and I saw that she thought I was dreaming” it is clearly stated the unreliability of the narrator, Agnes finds very unlikely that there was a woman the afternoon before, and thinks the narrator is not making proper sense of what he or she is saying. Another fact that shows the unreliability of the narrator is that it was dark when they went down the passage and they did not bring a light, so it is very unlikely that the narrator had seen anything.</em>
Romeo's reaction shows how impulsive, emotional, and immature he truly is. He cries to the Friar and asks to be put to death instead. When he says "ha, banishment? Be merciful, say "death"" he is saying he would rather die than have to live in a place without Juliet. Juliet responds differently though, which shows that she is a bit more mature and thoughtful than Romeo. Even though initially she gets upset, she then thinks about it and says "Oh, what a beast was I to chide at him" showing that she knows he made a mistake but he is still her husband and she still loves him.
the point of using quotes and other forms of evidence is to show that what the writer (you) has written isnt all opinions
