Romeo & Juliet
Author
William Shakespeare was born in Statford-upon-Avon on April 23 1564. He went to free grammar school in Stratford. It was a good school where he learned even Greek and Latin. But he didn’t go to college that’s so people thought he didn’t write his work, because apparently in that time if you didn’t go to college you weren’t smart enough to write such good books and plays.
He started getting famous in 1592 when he showed in his talent in writing plays London, suchHamlet, Romeo and Juliet, as you like it and more.
Summary
In the streets of Verona another brawl breaks out between the servants of the feuding noble families of Capulet and Montague. Benvolio, a Montague, tries to stop the fighting, but is himself embroiled when the rash Capulet, Tybalt, arrives on the scene. After citizens outraged by the constant violence beat back the warring factions, Prince Escalus, the ruler of Verona, attempts to prevent any further conflicts between the families by decreeing death for any individual who disturbs the peace in the future.
Romeo, the son of Montague, runs into his cousin Benvolio.. After some prodding by Benvolio, Romeo confides that he is in love with Rosaline, a woman who doesn’t like him back. Benvolio tries to convince him to forget this woman and find another, more beautiful one, but Romeo doesn’t listen.
Meanwhile, Paris, a kinsman of the Prince, seeks Juliet’s hand in marriage. Her father Capulet, asks Paris to wait two years, since Juliet is only fourteen. Capulet plan a masquerade and feast he traditionally holds, and invited Paris in hopes that he will win Juliet’s heart.
