In Act 1 Scene 2, a man named Paris discusses with Capulet, Juliet's father, about wanting to take Juliet's hand in marriage. Even though Capulet wants Juliet to get married, he does not really like Paris, so he decides to throw a ball at his house to find Juliet a husband. When Capulet sends his servant to tell the families about the ball, the servant cannot read the letter. Stumbling upon Romeo and Benvolio, the servant asks them to read the guest list. Realizing that the girl he loves is attending the ball, Romeo plans on going to meet his true love.
Prompt B:
The theme of this passage is that fate will present itself in times of need.
Prompt E:
I chose this image because it symbolizes Romeo's key of his fate of love. Since Romeo is so in love with Rosaline and he is being depressed that he can't be with her, when he is presented an opportunity to meet with her, it is almost like his key to success. This key opportunity will open the gates to the rest of the story and how the rest of the scenes play out.

ReplyDeleteIn your response to Prompt E, I like how you presented the analogy of, "...when he is presented with an opportunity to meet with her, it is almost like his key to success.
ReplyDeleteI liked how your image directly related to the topic of love. Do you think that without that key, he won't be able to find love? Your theme that you made showed that you understood that Juliet and Romeo will find love when they truly feel it and need it. In your summary you said that Romeo was going to the ball to find his true love. Do you think that he thought that his true love was Rosaline? Great job overall!
ReplyDeleteI really like the theme that you put for Scene 1 Act 2! It truly reflects on how Romeo's personality is going to be through out the whole story. I also like how your title fits well with your symbolic picture of the key of Romeo's fate of love.
ReplyDeleteI like how you chose a key to symbolize act 1 scene 2. It really reflects on how the next scenes in the play turn out, like you said. Very well thought out and written. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI really liked the way you interpreted this scene! By using the key analogy and foreshadowing, you really provided the readers with extensive insight on just how much fate plays in to the entire play. Without that one coincidence where Romeo ran into the Capulet's servant, Romeo may never have met Juliet and fallen in love. Great job!!
