thesis

chloehughes4996 — 2024-01-22 13:56:07 UTC

a thesis is a sentence that tells what the text is about. "Our confusion about what we mean when we use the word 'love' is the source of our difficulty in loving."

"If our society had a commonly held understanding of the meaning of love, the act of loving wouldn't be so misidentifying."

When two Opposites are placed close to each other to create a comparison.

love and hate

death and life

"From forth the fatal loins of these two foes,

A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life,

Whose misadventures piteous overthrows

Doth with their death bury their parents’ strife."

Theme

Love can make people do crazy things and drive them into severe situations.

This is a present theme because Romeo and Juliet still longed for each other even through the ups and downs.

"The fearful passage of their death-marked love,

And the continuance of their parents’ rage,

Which, but their children’s end, naught could remove,

Is now the two hours’ traffic of our stage..."

Characters

Benvolio speaks sour about the subject of love and acts iffy when it comes to it. Romeo speaks of it as a glorious thing. this can be seen when Romeo is first telling Benvolio about how he has fallen in love and Benvolio calls it "Tyrannous" and "Rough in proof". this supports the theme by showing how much of a hold it has on both of them just in opposite ways.

In "Romeo and Juliet", Romeo falls in love with someone of a different house- the one that they're rivals with. This sense shows how love can be difficult at times and works in mysterious ways as mentioned and talked about "All About Love". "All about Love" talks about the confusion of what is meant when using the term love, especially when one line says, "when the very meaning of the word is cloaked in mystery.." this is also similar to how Romeo describes it in the beginning of "Romeo and Juliet".

These texts address the theme of loss by giving some kind of insight into their story/personal experiences, either telling it directly or indirectly. They show and symbolize what love could do and what it could end up being because of how much of control it has. This can be seen in "Romeo and Juliet" When Romeo falls for Juliet who is the member of a rival house. In "Price of Freedom", The author describes how she knows there was a chance to not see the person she fell in love with again but held out hope to only have it ripped away and then in "All about Love" It talks about how Love and Abuse can not coexist.
1. They use symbolism in a way to give the reader an insight to what they mean and to also add some power behind it- It helps convey what has happened to them and what will happen due to them loving and connects one event or/subject to another. This can be seen when the author of "Price of Freedom" Strings together the events that had happened to her. hooks use a similar way when talking about the concept in "All about love" and then in "Romeo and Juliet", Romeo uses his words to convey what it was like to feel.
