Romeo and Juliet and nterloper
Do you believe in fate? To answer that question, you must first have a correct idea of what fate is. Webster’s dictionary defines fate as “the power that is supposed to settle ahead of time how things will happen”. The question lingers “Could there be such a power that regulates our lives, and if so, why?” Many authors have included this powerful idea into their literary works. Fate as a literary element is one that almost any author can write into his or her literary works. Fate is a theme common to many authors including William Shakespeare and Saki who incorporate it in literary works such as Romeo and Juliet and “The Interlopers”. Perhaps the best use of fate in a literary work is in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. Through a complex plot structure and use of key elements, Shakespeare was able to create a strong sense of fate. Romeo and Juliet, the two young lovers, ended up becoming a large part of what could be called fate. Fate seemed to control their lives and force them together, becoming a large part of their love, and the ending of their parent's hatred. Fate became the ultimate control power in this play, and plays a large part in modern everyday life, even if we don't recognize it. Maybe we don
The peace may have been the final part in this grand scheme which seems so perfectly plotted, bringing together two lovers and two families full of hate. In Act II, scene iii, the Friar predicted that this marriage might fix the families feud, "For this alliance may so happy prove to turn your households' rancor to pure love." He agreed to marry them, seeing such a noble event bringing the two families together and ending the hatred, and then turning it to true love. Nonetheless, fate still managed to weave Romeo into a twisted web of it's power's and plan's. It did this by starting with a few simple emotions and actions. Romeo had a crush on Rosaline, who did not return these feelings. Next, an illiterate servant (Sampson) of the Capulet's was sent to invite people on a list to a party that the Capulet's were throwing. While Romeo babbled on about his life with Benvolio, his cousin and kinsmen, Romeo bumped into this servant who asked him to read the list, with Rosaline's name, which got Romeo to agree to go after the servant invited them. This sets everything up for the two lovers. They meet at the party, Romeo memorized by her beauty, and her simply memorized by him. They realize later their identity, but they are in love and won't let their names get in the way of that strong emotional connection. If fate didn't put all this together, then what or who did? What were the chances of all of this happening to two enemies? It would probably be a million to one. Fate set up their love, their love already predestined, as well as their suicides, which they both foresaw.
