23、terest in the figures. Shakespeare made the great contribution to describe the distinct characters in the process of the literature and art. There are a lot of researchers to do some researches about the characters of Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliets love is full of renaissance humanists of roman

24、tic emotional appeal. Shakespearean studies spreading from England has become a significant part of western thoughts and culture. For example, Raymond Ross(1946) studied the train of thought, idea and form of Shakespeares work. He studied William Shakespeares work from his idea and form. But another

25、 scholar, Helge Kokeritz(1961), studied some details of William Shakespeares work. He studied William Shakespeares pronunciation, offering a thorough study of sixteenth and senventeenth century phonology and concluding that William Shakespeares pronunciation similar to Northern Irish.Otherwise some

26、researchers studied William Shakespeares works from other aspects. For example, John Barton(1984) demonstrates how to adapt Elizabethan theater for the modern stage by explicating William Shakespeares verse and prose, speeches and soliloquies, and naturalistic and heightened language. At the same ti

27、me, Michael D.C(2006) studied Shakespearian grammar, he provided the differences between Early Modern English grammar and that of nowadays by the study of William Shakespeares Romeo and Julie. In addition, Robert Thomas Fallon(2008) studied the language of characters in William Shakespeares works. F

28、or instance, the oxymoron and pun with the language of Romeo and Juliet. At the same time, he also demonstrated the skills that use and express these words on the stage. 2.2 Studies at homeThere is also some scholars studied Romeo and Juliet in China, it is Yan Fu(1989) who first introduces William

29、Shakespeare. In the preface footnote of his translation version published officially, he introduced William Shakespeare as an English writer for songs. Here it is necessary to emphasize a special scholar, Hu Wenjing(1982), she also did the study of form in William Shakespeares work from different as

30、pects, just like the study from Raymond Ross. In addition, there is a scholar, zhang Xinchang (1992), when he wrote a work in china analyzing systematically the translation of William Shakespeare abroad, he found that when Shakespearean drama entered into another culture, mostly its plot would be in

31、troduced first by Romeo and Juliet.Romeo and Juliet is belong to the tragedy, so there is a famous scholar, Zhu Guangqian(1993) demonstrated his idea that psychological distance of tragedy by Romeo and Juliet. Later Qin Run(2000) mentioned the use of antithesis in Romeo and Juliet. He thinks that Wi

32、lliam Shakespeare uses too much antithesis in Romeo and Juliet, and the use of antithesis makes the work more wonderful. These researchers studied William Shakespeare and his works from the aspects of grammar, language, figure of speech, idea, train of thought, form and so on. This paper will focus

33、on analyzing the love and hate of Romeo and Juliet.III. The Tragedys Inevitability of Romeo and Juliet3.1 Love and hate of Romeo and Juliet 3.1.1 Love of Romeo and JulietRomeo and Juliet is sometimes considered to have no unifying theme, save that of young love. In fact, the characters in it have be

34、come emblems of all who die young for their lovers. Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet were victims of Cupids arrows. They were truly “star-crossed.” Juliet needed Romeo to get away from her overprotective parents who were planning for future. If Juliet was going to disobey her parents, they would ha

35、ve disowned her. Ironically, at the party that Lord Capulet held so that Juliet could meet her projected husband, Romeo. They met by chance, looking into each others eyes and instantly being attracted. Their first conversation was sealed with a kiss. Although Romeo and Juliet knew a relationship wou

36、ldnt be accepted with them being from feuding families. It was too late for them to turn back though, they had fallen in love. In an act of impulse, the two were secretly married by Friar Lawrence. Next I will talk about Romeo and Juliets love from their personality.3.1.1.1 Romeo and Juliets love em

37、bodied in their personalitiesThe name Romeo, in popular culture, has become nearly synonymous with “lover.” Romeo, in Romeo and Juliet, his character is far more complex.Romeo is brave and full of passion, even knows that Juliet is the enemys daughter, he is also brave to love, kiss, marry Juliet. E

38、ven Romeos relation to love is not so simple. At the beginning of the play, Romeo pines for Rosaline, proclaiming her is so perfect and despairing at her indifference toward him. Romeo reads a lot of love poetry, and the description of his love for Rosaline suggests he is trying to re-create the fee

39、lings that he has read about. After first kissing Juliet, she tells him “you kiss by the book”(p92) meaning that he kisses according to the rules that are in the book. But the love Juliet shares with Romeo is far deeper, truer and unique than the love Romeo felt for Rosaline. Romeos love becomes mat

40、ure over the course of the play from the shallow desire to be in love to a profound and intense passion. One must ascribe Romeos development at least in part to Juliet. Her level-headed observations, such as the one about Romeos kissing, seem just the thing to stop Romeo from keeping his shallow ide

41、a of love and to inspire him to begin to speak some of the most beautiful and intense love poetry ever written.At the same time, Romeo is loyal to his true love. Romeo does not know anything about the Friars plan, so when he gets back to Verona, he thinks of his wife was dead and see her lying in he

42、r tomb. He drinks a kind of poison to kill himself. For Juliet, she is and obedient girl. Having not quite reached her fourteenth birthday; Juliet is of an age that stands on the border between immaturity and maturity. At the plays beginning however she seems merely an obedient, sheltered child. Whe

43、n Lady Capulet mentions Pariss interest in marrying Juliet, Juliet dutifully responds that she will try to see if she can love him, a response that seems childish in its obedience and in its immature conception of love. Juliet gives glimpses of her determination, strength, and sober-mindedness, in h

44、er earliest scenes, and offers a preview of the woman she will become during the five-day span of Romeo and Juliet. While Lady Capulet proves unable to quiet the nurse, Juliet succeeds with one word. In addition, even in Juliets obedient acquiescence to try to love Paris, there is some seed of steel

45、y determination. Juliet promises to consider Paris as a possible husband to the clear degree her mother desires. While an outward show of obedience, such a statement can also be read as a refusal through passivity. Juliet will be agree with her mothers wishes, but she will not go out of her way to f

46、all in love with Paris. She is brave to against the feudalism when she couldnt help falling in love with Romeo, she expresses her love directly.Juliets first meeting with Romeo propels her full-force toward adulthood. Though profoundly in love with him, Juliet is able to see and criticize Romeos ras

47、h decisions and his tendency to romanticize things. After Romeo kills Tybalt and is banished, Juliet does not follow him blindly. She makes a logical and heartfelt decision that her loyalty and love for Romeo must be her guiding priorities. Essentially, Juliet cuts herself loose from her prior socia

48、l mooringsher Nurse, her parents, and her social position in Veronain order to try to reunite with Romeo. When she wakes in the tomb to find Romeo dead, she does not kill herself out of feminine weakness, but rather out of an intensity of love, just as Romeo did. Juliets suicide actually requires more nerve than Romeos: while he swallows poison, she stabs herself through the heart with a dagger. Juliets development is from a wide-eyed girl into a self-assured, loyal, brave and capable woman.In the final suicide scene, there is a contradiction in the message in the Catholic religion, suicide
