Romeoy Julieta.  \n(Federico García Lorca, El Público, 1930)1  \nNot long ago I happened to teach a class on Shakespeare’s Romeo andJuliet to a group often-year-old school pupils. After I had summarized the plot, pointing out the various unfortunate turns of the action that lead to its deadly ending –which unsurprisingly astounded my young auditors, probably more familiar with the sugar-coated tourist-wise tale than with the original one – a couple of them raised their hands and very worryingly asked:“Why did they have to die? Who’s to blame for all this?” As naive as this question may sound (and is), we could say that, after all, it is exactly about this that Shakespeare’s drama makes us wonder. In the final scene of Romeo and Juliet, before Friar Laurence’s final recapitulation, delivered in front of the dead bodies of the two “star-crossed lovers”(Prologue, l. 6)2, the Captain of the Watch muses over the murderous events he has just discovered atthe Capulets’ vault. the “true ground”, he says, quibbling on the double meaning of cause and earth,“of all these piteous woes | We cannot without circumstance descry” (5.3.180- 1). moments later, the Prince will close the “lamentable tragedy” of romeo and Juliet on the same note of pity and woe anticipated in the Captain’s cue, while the two mourning fathers, Capulet and montague, seal a mutual pact of remembrance of their children’s tragic deaths. but before coming to this, Shakespeare’s drama questions the notions of authority, liberty, but also the nature and cause, the “true ground” of the play’s sorrowful ending: is it the feud, is it parental coercion and duress, is it the rashness of adolescent love or just an unfortunate serie","cbCaido9iMjt6Xwd","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaido9iMjt6Xwd","pdf",1363858,5,1,16,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Introduction - Lisanna Calvi\n# LANGUAGE, RELIGION, AND THE ECONOMY IN SHAKESPEARE’S ROMEO AND JULIET\n## “Refuse thy name”: Some Further Notes on Language, Authority, and Roses - Iolanda Plescia\n## Resisting, Appropriating, and Becoming the Signs in Romeo and Juliet - Lucia Nigri\n## “We can clear these ambiguities”: Escalus’s Econoliterary Authority in Romeo and Juliet - Enrico Reggiani\n# A STORY OF WOE: PATHETIC ADJUSTMENTS IN VICTORIAN THEATRE AND JAPANESE MANGA\n## “Wherefore art THOU Romeo?” - Henry Irving and the Dark Side of Romeo and Juliet - Maria Serena Marchesi\n## William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and Its Manga Version - Cristina Vallaro\n# MARGINALITY AND DESECRATION ON THE ITALIAN CONTEMPORARY STAGE\n## Mercutio Can’t Die.
