Drama "Romeo & Juliet" Assessment Project Final Draft

"Literature Commentary Final Draft."

Imagine waiting 20 years to go home, see your family and get back to your old life, try and think what you think it would be like. All of the challenges you would have to go through.Odysseus, a Greek god, had to face many obstacles throughout his journey back to Ithica. Odysseus learned how to be strong physically and mentally through out his journey home.


Odysseus had to go through many difficult physical challenges, throughout his long time back home. For example, one of Odysseus’s first physical challenges was to defeat Cyclops, who in the story is a giant monster with one eye, who wants to eat Odysseus’s men. Odysseus’s mainly had to use physical strength to stick the spear in the Cyclops eye, but he also used mental strength to think of a good plan that would work for him and his men. The defeat was mainly physical. By Odysseus stabbing Cyclops in his eye, shows that Odysseus has the mental and physical to defeat anyone. In addition, Odysseus also dressed up as a beggar and had to achieve the great bow and arrow task. This task required a lot of strength, many men before Odysseus failed to complete this task properly. It proves how much Odysseus could do. Odysseus was a very strong person, his strength was one of the factors that helped him survive through his way home.


Not only was Odysseus physically strong, he was also very wise. For example, he had to face Calypso and her seductive charm, she was very evil, but was able to keep Odysseus by her looks. This shows that mentally Odysseus wasn’t strong enough to run from her, he missed home in the day and was okay at night. This also shows that Odysseus’s thoughts could get the best of him. In addition, Odysseus had to deal with the sirens, they as well have a seductive charm and sung to the men so that they would stay. This shows that any seductive charm, could get Odysseus in trouble. Many Goddesses used that to reel their men in. If Odysseus had better mental strength, he probably wouldn’t have to have been on a journey home, it would have never happened.


All together Odysseus had a tough, long and enduring journey back to Ithica. Many challenges he faced could have been prevented and solved a little better. Odysseus was a strong, wise man. He had flaws, but that’s what helped mold the story.

Romeo & Juliet Acts 4 & 5 Content Paragraph - Deaths

I think Romeo and Juliet died because of human errors. There wasn't enough communication. Juliet faked her death, then Romeo came killed himself and Juliet woke up and killed herself. If it was fate Romeo would have been caught by who was looking for him. Juliet would marry Paris, then later died. This was all human errors, if it was fate then they would have been together. Fate wouldn't have ended it like this. I don't feel like any of they deserved to die.

“Romeo & Juliet” Love Letter – Acts 4 & 5

Dear Juliet,

This is killing me that I cannot see you, every second from you is another day without purpose. I life for you, you keep me going. I no longer know what to do. Today I got news that you have passed, for I hope it's not true. My heart can't beat without you. I love you Juliet, and for you if this news is true, I will kill myself. We will be reunited in the place, we go after this life is over. It won't be long my dear. Your time alone will be short. After this we can stay together for ever.

Yours truly.
Romeo

Romeo & Juliet Act 3 Content Paragraph - Rules

There are a lot of positive and negative consequences of breaking rules. If your break a rule the good thing is you get what you want, the bad thing that you could get in a lot of trouble depending on how big the rule was. Romeo and Juliet are sneaking around to see each other which is breaking a rule, the positive thing is that they get to see each other, the negative thing is that if they get caught they will be in a lot of trouble. Another thing that happens in Romeo and Juliet is that Juliet is suppose to marry Paris. She plans to run away the positive thing is that she gets to go off with Romeo, the negative thing is no matter where she ends up if she gets caught they will send her back home, because it's like her dad owns her. Romeo and Juliet got married because they love each other so much, but once again if they get caught it'll be over for them. Romeo killed Tybalt, for killing Mercuico. Now Romeo has to run away because they want to kill Romeo. Romeo and Juliet keep breaking rules. Which is giving them more things to hid and keep a secret which is hard to do. If their wasn't any rule breaking in this poem, Romeo and Juliet wouldn't be the same story today.
