Compare and Contrast the Language of Romeo and Juliet in the Balcony Scene.
Act II Scene 2 is one of the most famous scenes of the play. It is.
commonly known as the "Balcony Scene" because Juliet appears on a small.
balcony outside her bedroom window, and exchanges words, expresses true.
love with Romeo who is standing below in her father's orchard. The scene is.
famous for its moving and vivid images, used to express love between two.
people of contrasting nature. In my study I will compare the language of.
Romeo and Juliet in this famous scene.
The balcony scene is physically separate from the rest of the play.
by being set in a moonlit garden. The lovers exist outside the feuding and.
quarreling but cannot completely ignore it. Their love is shown as eternal.
and pure, rather than motivated by physical desire, lust or money grabbing.
This is reflected in the kind of language and imagery that the lovers use.
In this scene we notice that the way Romeo expresses his love is.
different from the way Juliet expresses her love. Romeo speaks in high-.
flown language to express his love but compared to his, Juliet's language.
it is more sincere and filled with sweet seriousness.
Romeo expresses his love for Juliet right at the beginning of the.
scene through the use of light imagery. He declares:.
"It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the.
envious moon Her vestal livery is but sick and green".
Romeo connects the pale moonlight with sickness and grief and says that.
only fools have anything to do with it. Here Romeo refers to how foolishly.
he fell in love with Rosaline. He could also be referring to the court.
jesters. In those days Elizabethan court jesters wore a chequered costume.
of pale and green which is why he said.
"none but fools do wear it.".
Romeo's comparison of Juliet to the sun provides an understanding to his.
state of mind. Previously when Romeo was in love with Rosaline he always.
