Visual images that help us bring up the theme of love in Romeo and Juliet are for example: The way Romeo refers to Juliet as the sun, or as an angel, when he visits her on his balcony or escapes to be able to see her in secret, the tender kiss he gave to her, or that she claims about the hatred of the two families and is sorry for not being able to be with her loved one.
Explanation:
In literature, the image is used to address the reader directly so that it can "bring to life" the senses, feelings, or anything lived that helps to represent in a particular way what they are reading, in their mind.
Let's see quotes from Romeo and Juliet that make us see the love that they both felt:
- <em>"But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks? </em>
<em> It is the east, and Juliet is the sun
..."</em>
<em>
</em>
- <em>"O, speak again, bright angel! for thou art
</em>
<em> As glorious to this night, being o’er my head
</em>
<em> As is a winged messenger of heaven
</em>
<em> Unto the white-upturned wondering eyes
</em>
<em> Of mortals that fall back to gaze on him
</em>
<em> When he bestrides the lazy-pacing clouds
</em>
<em> And sails upon the bosom of the air.
"</em>
<em>
</em>
- <em>"My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
</em>
<em> To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
"</em>

The main disagreement between Susan Baker and John Denver was about placing a warning label on music products inappropriate for younger children due to explicit sexual or violent lyrics while John Denver did not support any censorship of any kind on music released.
Explanation:
Firstly, John Denver, a Folk-rock musician, was strongly opposed to censorship of any kind in the society or anywhere else in the world and that in his experience censors often misinterpret music, as was the case in one of his songs.
Secondly, John Denver believed that censoring is counter productive, in that the more people are prevented from doing something the more curious they are to try to do it. In essence, he said that which is denied becomes that which is desired, and that thing that is hidden becomes the most interesting to search for.
