Throughout the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet various types of "love" are
|
|||
|
displayed . Benvolio believes women are interchangeable, while, at the
|
|||
|
beginning Romeo bel ieves love is pain. At the beginning Juliet does not
|
|||
|
even have a definition of l ove. Paris's and Lady Capulet's definition of
|
|||
|
love is in appearance. It is obvio us that Shakespeare wants the audience
|
|||
|
to believe that the only "true" or "real" love is the love that exists
|
|||
|
between Romeo and Juliet. The first type of love the audience is introduced
|
|||
|
to is the "interchangeable" lo ve of Benvolio. According to Benvolio, a man
|
|||
|
should "love" a woman for only the duration of their relationship. If their
|
|||
|
relationship should end, the man should feel no grief. If the woman rejects
|
|||
|
the man initially, he should still feel no grief. In either situation, the
|
|||
|
man should simply start a relationship with anot her woman. Benvolio's
|
|||
|
definition of love shows the audience two things about Ben volio: he is a
|
|||
|
womanizer and he has never before experienced "true love." The next
|
|||
|
definition of love comes from Romeo, but before the time he met Juliet.
|
|||
|
According to his definition, love (or, rather, not returned love) is pain.
|
|||
|
He h ides from the sun due to the "love" he feels, and does not act like
|
|||
|
"himself." I believe Romeo is both right and wrong: not returned love is
|
|||
|
pain, but Romeo doe s not truly love, as he is merely infatuated by a
|
|||
|
woman. The next definition of love comes from Juliet, who, before meeting
|
|||
|
Romeo, did no t even have a definition of love. She appears not to know
|
|||
|
what love is, and, for that matter, does not seem to care. She remains
|
|||
|
ignorant until she meets Romeo.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Another type of "love" we are exposed to during the same scene is the love of La
|
|||
|
dy Capulet. Lady Capulet believes love comes from appearance, both physical and
|
|||
|
political, and has nothing to do with emotion. She shows this when she speaks fa
|
|||
|
vorably of Paris's looks and his nobility. She also shows that she does not love
|
|||
|
Capulet when she publicly denounces him. The Nurse's opinion of love coincides
|
|||
|
with that of Lady Capulet.
|
|||
|
Paris has a similar view of love. His "love" for Juliet appears to be pure, but
|
|||
|
his reason does not. He loves Juliet for her appearance and nothing else. He reg
|
|||
|
ards her more as property than as an individual. He is also selfish in his "love
|
|||
|
." When he believes Juliet is dead (in Act IV) he seems sorrier for his own loss
|
|||
|
than Juliet's apparent loss. He "loves" Juliet as much as he can love anyone, b
|
|||
|
ut his love cannot be considered "true love" because of his selfishness.
|
|||
|
Finally, in Act II, the audience sees what is defined as "true love" in our soci
|
|||
|
ety. This "love" is the love that grows between Romeo and Juliet. The definition
|
|||
|
of "true love" Shakespeare provides the audience with states that all the other
|
|||
|
characters' definitions of love are wrong. It also states that when two people
|
|||
|
are in true love, there is no pain unless they are permanently separated. It sho
|
|||
|
ws that lovers are not interchangeable, and that love transcends appearance. It
|
|||
|
proves all except one other "love" in the play wrong. It also shows that real lo
|
|||
|
ve is not affected by distance or convenience. When two people are in "true love
|
|||
|
" they are not selfish to one another, do not care about appearances, and cannot
|
|||
|
live without one another. I agree with this definition of love (all except that
|
|||
|
without one another the lovers cannot survive).
|
|||
|
Romeo and Juliet's love for one another also goes beyond one other thing: names.
|
|||
|
It shows that names do not matter. In our society the difference in names would
|
|||
|
be equal to two people of different races. The people would come from racist fa
|
|||
|
milies in a modern day remake of the play.
|
|||
|
The last example of love in the play is parental love. This is shown in Act V sc
|
|||
|
ene iii. Lady Montague dies due to separation from her son. Capulet, Montague, L
|
|||
|
ady Capulet, and even the Nurse shows that they love either Romeo or Juliet in t
|
|||
|
his way.
|
|||
|
In the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet many types of love are shown. None of them ar
|
|||
|
e wrong, as the word "love" is subject to interpretation, but it is obvious that
|
|||
|
Shakespeare did not have this in mind when he wrote the play. Shakespeare shows
|
|||
|
us that the only type of love worth being in is "true love." He also shows us t
|
|||
|
hat, with all types of love, there is pain. If his goal was to influence the aud
|
|||
|
ience to believe that the only real love is the type of love that existed betwee
|
|||
|
n Romeo and Juliet, I believe he accomplished it.
