Scene Summary and Context Guide

In Act 2, Scene 2 of Romeo & Juliet, Juliet appears on her balcony, speaking about her love for Romeo. She is unaware that Romeo is listening below. The scene captures Juliet's passionate feelings and her desire for their love to remain secret due to the feud between their families. The dialogue includes phrases like 'O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?' which highlights her conflict between love and social expectations. This scene is crucial for understanding Juliet's character development and the theme of forbidden love. It also demonstrates Shakespeare’s use of poetic devices such as metaphor and imagery to deepen emotional impact.
