Fate
Romeo
‘O, I am fortune's fool!’
Fortune - connotes to luck which would give the view that Shakespeare sees fate as something that is not planned but as pure luck that an event transpires
“I defy you stars.”
defy -usually means to go against something, this could be saying that fate defy's the stars which could be being used to represent the universe or a higher force
Tybalt
“I will
withdraw, but this intrusion
shall/Now seeming sweet, convert
to bitterest gall”
sweet to bitterness shows again that Shakespeare sees fate in a negative way and that no matter how good a fate might be that it will turn sour and end.
Juliet
“Methinks I see
thee, now thou art below, As one
dead in the bottom of a tomb.”
below - shows a hierarchy maybe representing fate as something to have no limits with society leveling, this could therefore see fate as something that over rules society and power
-
Friar Laurence
“Unhappy fortune!”
Unhappy fortune - shows that a fortune may not always be for the good and that fortune can be something that causes pain, in the case of romeo and Juliet this could be foreshadowing the eventual death after romeo and Juliet meet and fall in love by fate or luck.
