Romeo and Juliet Final Essay

Page history last edited by cbennett 11 years, 10 months ago

The story of Romeo and Juliet is not original. Shakespeare used a poem by Arthur Brooke (1562) “Romeus and Juliet” as the basis of his play. In either play or poem, the story of two “star-crossed lovers” has several messages (theme).
