Introduction du livre

Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet turns a private love into public catastrophe. Shakespeare compresses desire, feud, language, youth, and accident into a drama where beauty and rashness move together toward irreversible loss.

Chapitre d'aperçuThe PrologueAperçu

Enter Chorus.

CHORUS.

Two households, both alike in dignity,

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.

From forth the fatal loins of these two foes

A pair of star-cross’d lovers take their life;

Whose misadventur’d piteous overthrows

Doth with their death bury their parents’ strife.

The fearful passage of their death-mark’d love,

And the continuance of their parents’ rage,

Which, but their children’s end, nought could remove,

Is now the two hours’ traffic of our stage;

The which, if you with patient ears attend,

What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.

[Exit.]
