In the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, the interaction of love and hate is definitely one of the most predominant themes. Not only is the love vs. hate theme obviously shown between Juliet and her father, but also between Romeo and Tybalt as well as Romeo and Juliet.

Juliet and her father exhibit the ongoing struggle between love and hate. At the beginning of the tragedy Capulet expresses how much Juliet means to him and how much he loves her.
