Introduction and Scene Summary
In William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, Romeo is portrayed as a young, passionate lover caught between family loyalty and love. In the story, Romeo's emotions often fluctuate, showing both vulnerability and bravado. Today, in modern pop culture, similar characters appear in movies, TV shows, and music—such as romantic heroes who wear their hearts on their sleeves or rebels defying societal expectations. Romeo's speech, like 'O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright,' highlights his intense feelings. His quick transition from love to despair mirrors many modern characters who experience rapid emotional shifts, reminiscent of teen movie protagonists or pop stars who express raw emotion openly.
