Outline of Romeo and Juliet essay

Intro: Characteers have a purpose, without characters, you cannot have a plot
Thesis: In Romeo and Juliet, Tybalt's prejudice, Benvolio's peacefulness and the Friar's kindness helps either the love of Romeo and Juliet, or the rivalry of the Capulets and the Montagues.

Paragraph 1: Tybalt
His prejudice fuels the anger between the Capulets and the Montagues.
Eample: He hates peace and all Montagues.
This shows that he is prejudiced to see if the Montagues are deemed nice, and he causes fights in Verona.

Paragraph 2: Benvolio
His peacefulness shows the reader that not all of the characters hate the Capulets,
Example: He draws his sword to stop fights.
Example: He calls Tybalt to help him stop the fight in the streets of Verona.
This shows that he does not want fights between the two houses, and that he only takes out his sword to stop others from fighting.

Paragraph 3: Friar Lawrence
His kindness helps the love of Romeo and Juliet.
Example: He is the one that lets Romeo and Juliet get married.
Example: He creates a potion for Juliet so that she can avoid getting married to Paris.
This shows that the Friar wants to help the couple so that the houses could resolve their problems without violence.

Conclusion:
They helped to the tragedy of the play because they help the couple through their love and they help with the hatred between the two houses of the Capulets and the Montagues.
