Abstract or Introduction
The play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare deals with the love of two young lovers, who are members of noble but hostile families of Verona.
This paper will try to analyse the role of fate and society inRomeo and Juliet.This will be done on the level of fate as part of the Elizabethan World View, as a typical means in the tragedy and in form of a consideration of different scenes which depict fate. Furthermore emphasis it put upon the society in the Elizabethan Age, the aristocracy’s behaviour, the hate as an evil force and the different characters in Romeo and Juliet.
It will be shown that these circumstances lead to their death, which is not the fault of the young lovers, but the work of coincidences, of fate and members of the society.

Hi there, very well written paper. With your permission and consent, I would be highly obliged if I could take references from your paper and use them in my own for an assignment I am writing for my course "Introduction to Drama". I am Sajeda Hussain, an undergrad student in my freshman year at a private university in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and was researching online on the role of fate as theme in Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet", when I found your paper. And goes without saying, of course I intend to add this to my bibliography on the list of works cited. Looking forward to hearing back from you,
With my utmost regards,
S. Hussain.
