Romeo and Juliet

Hey guys!

For Honors, the two questions are:
1. What is the effect of perspective on the audience in this scene?
2. How does dialogue move the plot forward?

In general, if you are interested in Romeo and Juliet or in Shakespeare, I encourage you to read other “No Fear Shakespeare” texts on Sparknotes.com. Furthermore, you can also watch many of Shakespeare’s plays on youtube or Amazon Instant Video. There are some pretty cool remakes of Shakespeare plays also. Here is a neat article on movies that reflect the plots of Shakespeare plays:

Also, bear in mind that we will be reading some of Shakespeare’s poems in our next unit, beginning mid-February. Here is a website you can use if you’d like to preview them:
