Romeo and Juliet
In class we are discussing the epic love story, Romeo and Juliet. I'm super happy because I just read a book about a love story, that had a lot of references to the story. We have watched and read the first couple scenes in class, an I'll just say that Shakespeare is a cornball. His romance lines are really cheesy while he has his characters "wooing" women. I think that some of the lines he uses are very confusing! I get that he likes to be poetic, but I wish he could be poetic and make a little more sense, too. So far, Romeo has met Juliet, but he was just obsessing over a woman that he claimed he was in love with. I really hope this guy isn't a player because he sounds pretty loyal to the women he thinks are attractive.

I agree with the Shakespeare being confusing thing!!! I don't understand how women found that attractive because I was totally lost.
ReplyDeleteI also think Shakespeare's lines are very confusing and he does obsess and forget women very quickly it seems.
ReplyDeleteI like how you make connections with shakespear's style of writing
ReplyDeleteI feel like either men were more intelligent back then or Shakespeare tried to make them more intelligent.
