From movies to television shows, from poetry to music, one thing is for certain--love is almost always in the air.  Yet, love is a concept that should not be oversimplified.  No--there are several aspects to what love is and to what love is not.  Throughout William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the motif of love vs. infatuation is established to help deliver one of the central ideas that love has the power to blind anyone, especially emotional adolescents.  This idea is significant because it emphasizes the point that when people allow themselves to be swept away by passion, they run the risk of ignoring all of the warning signs along the way.]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917115 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917131 “I fear too early, for my mind misgives some consequence yet hanging in the Stars shall bitterly begin his fearful date With this night's revels, and expire the term of a despised life closed in my breast By some vile forfeit of untimely death. But he that hath the steerage of my course Direct my sail. On, Lusty gentleman.” (Shakespeare 1.4.113-120).]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917131 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917134 Romeo was very depressed because he thought he was madly in love with Rosaline but she wouldn't return the feelings. Mercutio and Benvolio, trying to cheer him up, told him to go to the Capulet dinner because Rosaline would be there.]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917134 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917138 Romeo was explaining that in his dream, someone was going to die very suddenly. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917138 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917142 When Romeo says "my mind misgives" he means that his mind is warning him not to go to the party. Also, when Romeo says "some consequence yet hanging in the stars" he means that going to the party will bring dire and dangerous consequences. Despite this, Romeo still decided to go to the party because of his "love" for Rosaline. This proves that when people, especially young people, feel like they're in love they are in fact just infatuated with someone and that can cause them to ignore obvious signs of danger. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917142 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917144 “Oh look, methinks I see my cousin's ghost Seeking out Romeo that did spit his body Upon a rapier’s point! Stay, Tybalt, Stay! Romeo, Romeo, Romeo! Here's drink. I drink to thee.” (Shakespeare 4.3.56-59).]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917144 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917145 “Holy Saint Francis, what a change is here! Is Rosaline, that thou didst love so dear, So soon forsaken? Young men's love then lies Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes. Jesu Maria, what a deal of brine Hath washed thy sallow cheeks for Rosaline! How much salt water thrown away in waste To season love, that of it doth not taste! The sun not yet thy sighs from heaven's clears, Thy old groans yet ringing in mine ancient ears. Lo, here upon thy cheek the stain doth sit Of an old tear that is not washed off yet. If e’er thou wast thyself, in these woes thine, Thou and these woes were all for Rosaline. And art thou changed? Pronounce this sentence then: Women may fall when there's no strength in men. (Shakespeare 2.3.69-85).]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917145 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917148 Juliet had been given a potion from Friar Lawrence that would make her seem dead so she wouldn't have to marry Count Paris. Once she took the potion the plan was to have Romeo meet her in the vault and her would take her to Mantua since Romeo was still banished from Verona for killing Tybalt. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917148 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917150 Romeo had came to Friar Lawrence to tell him that he is in love. When the friar asked if it was Rosaline, Romeo said they he had forgotten about her and that he found the most beautiful girl in the world and that girl was Juliet. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917150 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917153 Juliet was about to drink the potion but before she could, she had a vision of Tybalt coming for revenge and Romeo dying. She told Tybalt to not come for Romeo then she warned Romeo. She then drank the potion. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917153 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917156 The friar was warning Romeo about moving on too fast.

Instead of her realizing that her vision might mean something, she decides to drink the potion anyway because she'd rather die than not be with Romeo. Again, this proves that when it comes to adolescents and love and infatuation, they are blind to the dangers it might bring if they aren't careful. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917159 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917164 The friar warned Romeo about moving too fast in relationships since he had just cried over Rosaline not even a day ago. Romeo, however, didn't listen to the friar and asked him to marry him and Juliet. In his warning, he said, " Women may fall when there's no strength in men". He means that if men keep "loving" with their eyes and not their hearts, women will also have no strength. However, Romeo was so convinced that he was in love with Juliet that he didn't care about any of the warnings and married Juliet anyway. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917164 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917167 Both Romeo and Juliet had visions of death. Romeo had a vision of someone dying suddenly. Juliet had a vision of Romeo dying. Both of them, however, decided to ignore these vision because of their "love". ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917167 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917169 In both of these moments, Romeo and Juliet were being very impulsive because they believed they were in love. Romeo, at first, was convinced that he was in love with Rosaline. However, when he saw Juliet at the Capulet dinner, he was then in love with Juliet. With Juliet, she had just had a vision where she saw Romeo dead but decided to drink the poison anyway because she thought she was in love with Romeo and wanted to be with him. ]]> 2021-05-07 15:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1502917169 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1513787500 Use connections for concluding sentences to transition]]> 2021-05-11 15:14:36 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1513787500 naiya_bass https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1513792677 Use connections for concluding sentences to transition]]> 2021-05-11 15:15:37 UTC https://padlet.com/naiya_bass/oavwas2rtx1lf6px/wish/1513792677
