  1. Romeo & Juliet Key Literary Terms

  2. Juliet struggles between loving and hating Romeo. She pleads with him, “Deny they father and refuse they name;/Or, if though wilt not, be but sworn my love, /And I’ll no longer be a Capulet.” Compose a letter to Juliet about whether you think she should choose to be with her family or with Romeo. In your opinion, where does her loyalty belong? Explain the reasoning behind your response. Journal Entry #1

  3. Romeo confides in Friar Laurence about his relationship with Juliet. Is the Friar a good person for Romeo to confide in? Why or why not? As a man of the church, do you think it’s morally sound for the Friar to marry Romeo & Juliet if he does not believe they are in love? Journal Entry #2

  4. Juliet takes the side of her husband, Romeo, when he is banished for killing Tybalt. She says to the nurse, “Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband?” How much should a person defend or support his or her spouse, even when the spouse has done something wrong? Be sure to back up your opinion. Where do you think Juliet’s allegiance should be? With Romeo or her family? Journal Entry #3

  9. In George Orwell's Animal Farm, the words "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others" are part of the cardinal rules. Clearly this statement does not make logical sense. However, the point of a paradox is to point out a truth, even if the statements contradict each other. • In Shakespeare'sHamlet, the title character states "I must be cruel to be kind." On the surface, once again, this statement does not seem to make much sense. Can an individual convey kindness through evil? Paradox in Literature
