In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, Friar Lawrence is partly responsible for the tragic and senseless deaths of the star-crossed lovers. For example, when Romeo asks him for help after meeting Juliet at the Capulets’ party, the Friar marries them without telling their parents. He thinks that if he tells this problem will just get worse. The Friar helps Romeo and Juliet because he thinks it’s the best thing to do. Another example is when he sends a letter to Romeo to tell him about the potion, but ends up leaving her in the tomb. Friar Lawrence leaves Juliet in the tomb when he realizes Romeo is dead. This shows that he’s being selfish. Friar Lawrence must accept part of the blame for the devastation that occurs. BLUE = summary; RED = interpretation; GREEN = misc.

In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, Friar Lawrence is partly responsible for the tragic and senseless deaths of the star-crossed lovers. • For example, when Romeo asks him for help after meeting Juliet at the Capulets’ party, the Friar marries them without telling their parents. • He hopes to stop the generations-long feud that has been plaguing and poisoning the town, but his secrecy dooms his plan. Troubled by the animosity between the warring houses and determined to unite the families, he does not anticipate the tragic consequences of his decision. • In addition, after he sends a letter to Romeo explaining his plan to give Juliet potion, he leaves her in the tomb when he realizes Romeo is dead. • Afraid for his own reputation, he is willing to abandon Juliet rather than stop further tragedy. His selfish desire to save his own skin leads to the grievous loss of an innocent and heartbroken girl and the boy who loved her. • Part of the responsibility for these deaths is a result of Friar Lawrence’s self-serving actions.
