William Shakespeare – Why…?
GFS – Karl Heinz 2008/2009
1 Introduction
„William Shakespeare was born to John Shakespeare and mother Mary Arden
some time in late April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. There is no record of his birth,
but his baptism was recorded by the church, thus his birthday is assumed to be the
23 of April. His father was a prominent and prosperous alderman in the town of
Stratford-upon-Avon, and was later granted a coat of arms by the College of Heralds. All that is known of Shakespeare's youth is that he presumably attended the
Stratford Grammar School, and did not proceed to Oxford or Cambridge.“2

3 Romeo and Juliet
3.1 Content
The lovestory of this to young persons acts in Verona in the 16th century. It´s a theatre tragedy in five acts. Romeo son of the Montagues is
a boy who first fell in love with Rosalie, an normal girl of the town. But on
a ball he saw Juliet, the daughter of the Capulets which are the enemies
of the Montagues. And he forgot about his love to Rosalie. Romeo and
Juliet fell in love and wanted to get married.
The problem is, that the both families really hated each other, and so
they had to love each other secret. But a pastor, who´s a friend of Romeo, helped them, because he thought with this marriage he could get
the bozh hated families together, and so they got married. One day
there was a fight between the cousin of Juliet and Romeo.
In the end Romeo killed the cousin and have to leave Verona, because
he was banished. Juliet didn´t wanted to let him go, but she knew if she
didn´t let him go, he would be killed.
In his last night, Romeo went to her for a sleep. Juliet´s first mother,
which is her confidant helped Romeo. The goodbye in the morning is
very hard for both.
The Parents of Juliet which didn´t know about the love to Romeo choose
a man,Prince Paris, for her.
She didn´t want to get married with him, but she also couldn´t tell her
parents about Romeo, so she searched for help at the pastor.
He told her to drink some special sleeping draft, that makes her sleeping
for one day, but she looks like if she were dead.
Juliet said yes, because this way could be the only one to run out of the
marriage with Prince Paris.

saw her lover dead she also killed herself. As a consequence both families finally made peace
3.2 The modern version
In 1996 Baz Luhrman made the most famous film version about “Romeo
and Juliet” . He liked the drama his whole life and one time he said:
“Everyone, from a child to an adult, can have a rich experience from
Romeo and Juliet”. Leonardo di Caprio plays Romeo and Claire Danes
has the role of Juliet. On the one hand he takes the original text but on
the other hand he presents it like it would be set in a city of today’s
South America. The city is dirty and there is much violence. The Montagu- groups are dressed very colour full and the Capulets are dressed
like dark bad cowboys, so you can see clearly the difference between
the Capulets and Montagues. It’s similar to the outfits in the Westsidestory. In the succes of the film you can see that the problems of hate,
love and violence are never unintresting.
