Question

I need help creating a character in romeo and Juliet.


Basically, I have to create a character who views the fight ( in act 3 scene 1) in Romeo and Juliet.

If it's accessible, I'll add the information on it down below.

Answer 1

I already have my reasons on everything. Give me a second to attach what I have so far.

Answer 2

is this your homework

Answer 3

do i care

Answer 4

I made a post about this a few weeks ago, but I hadn't known much about it at the moment.

Answer 5

How about their parents for both Juliet and Romeo?

Answer 6

I believed they both disapproved of them being together?

Answer 7

*afar

Stupid autocorrect.

Answer 8

So, maybe like a civilian or a knight?

Answer 9

A civilian, yes.

Answer 10

Ok.

Answer 11

I have to create a whole character profile including their background information such as the civilians parent's jobs.

Answer 12

So considering that this takes place during medieval times, maybe the father could be a blacksmith?

Answer 13

I was thinking maybe the father could be a butcher.

Answer 14

And the mother a grocer.

Answer 15

Okay.

Answer 16

Now we have to create the civilians age, name, his job and why he saw the fight.

Answer 17

I'm thinking 27, what should the name be.

Answer 18

So maybe when it comes down to why he saw the fight, you could do something like the civilian possibly passing by?

Answer 19

Yeah, he was going to take out the trash? Did they do that in medieval times?

Answer 20

Hm okay.

Answer 21

What should his job be?

Answer 22

Florist?

Answer 23

@sailor u still here lolz?

Answer 24

Thats ight.

Answer 25

What should his last name be?

Answer 26

Maybe Fletcher or Foreman?

Answer 27

Foreman is probably best.

Answer 28

Okay, so this is our character.

Name: Percival Foreman
Age: 27
Profession: Florist

Father:
Age: 48
Profession: Butcher

Mother:
Age: 42
Profession: Grocer.

Civilians' reason for seeing the fight- Went to take out the garbage and saw a fight down the alleyway.

Answer 29

It seems great so far.

Answer 30

Okay, now it's time to summarize the fight. Have you read romeo and juliet before?

Answer 31

Mkay, well if you read this from when romeo joins and then the fight ends then you'll know. https://www.sparknotes.com/nofear/shakespeare/romeojuliet/act-3-scene-1/

Answer 32

I've got the qoutes to backup my statement already

Answer 33

Ok.

Answer 34

Okay so, Romeo is in love, I think he was going to get married if I remember, and Tybalt is his to-be wife's brother, Tybalt doesn't know yet. And that is why Romeo didn't hurt Tybalt.

Answer 35

And that is why romeo says, " I can tell that you don't know who I am."

Answer 36

who's perspective is this?

Answer 37

And as the fight escalates, Romeo is continuously trying to stop the fight only with his words.

Answer 38

And as Romeo goes in to stop the fight, Tybalt reaches under Romeo and stabs Mercutio.

Answer 39

Romeo was really only trying to stop the fight because he didn't want to harm Tybalt and he also didn't want to get caught while the fight was going on or there would be severe consequences.

Answer 40

Mercutio thinks that it's romeo's fault that he got stabbed, while it wasn't and romeo is deemed innocent.

Answer 41

Romeo is thinking that his wife (tybalt's sister) is the reason as to why romeo is so soft hearted.

Answer 42

And then, Tybalt enters once again, and Romeo throws a fit blaming Tybalt for why Mercutio is dead, and so he plants revenge. Gets into a fight with Tybalt, and then kills Tybalt.

Answer 43

what kind of name is tybalt

Answer 44

And Benvolio, tell's the prince who had killed Tybalt because of Mercutio. Benvolio then explains the whole situation and how it started. And that is how Romeo got kicked from verona.

Answer 45

And concluding my summary, I think that Romeo is not guilty for he was only taking revenge.

Answer 46

Now I need help with the counterargument.

Answer 47

Alright I am good with my English stuff. So what you all took you have to go all against it, So what are some reasons for thinking the opposite?

For example if I was talking about Jolly Ranchers and how I really liked them. For a opposite I would say something like this~ Jolly Ranchers are so sugary. They also stick to your teeth a lot and it talks a while to make the candy small enough to swallow it. Also if you eat too many of them they will give you cavity's in your teeth.

Do something like that opposing your side and try to think about why other people might think opposite of you.

Answer 48

So the reasoning for every one of your reasoning in each of your body paragraphs you have to counter it with a opposing reason for why you would go against it.

Answer 49

I think they might think that he's guilty of his crimes because he killed Tybalt. But as much as Tybalt killed Mercutio, Romeo shouldn't take up the consequences for both. I do agree, Romeo shouldn't have gone as far as to kill Tybalt, but, Tybalt did deserve it.

Answer 50

Nice. I think that is pretty good. One thing is do not start a sentence with But replace it with although, ...

You get what I am saying?

Answer 51

Yes.

Answer 52

Blegh I'm stuck on the address of my character.

Answer 53

I don't know what I should label as his address.

Answer 54

You need a street address?

Answer 55

Yes, for the prince and for my civilian.

Answer 56

Does the book mention any street addresses? If not, then look up on google some street names around this time period.

Answer 57

From the book*

Answer 58

No there are no addresses as far as I can remember. I just searched up on google and found two street names that I am going to use.
