This is my cumulative exam read the excerpt from romeo and juliet, act i, scene v. romeo: o! then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do; they pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair. juliet: saints do not move, though grant for prayers’ sake. 105 romeo: then move not, while my prayers’ effect i take. thus from my lips, by thine, my sin is purg’d. [kissing her.] juliet: then have my lips the sin that they have took. romeo: sin from my lips? o trespass sweetly urg’d! give me my sin again. this is an example of dramatic irony because the audience is relieved that romeo has found a suitable partner. the audience is eager to discover rosaline’s opinion of the couple. romeo and juliet are shy characters who usually avoid social events. romeo and juliet have yet to discover that they are from feuding families.

Romeo and Juliet have yet to discover that they are from feuding families.

Explanation:

Dramatic irony is a literary device where the audience are fully aware of what is going on or what is happening but the characters themselves are not aware about it.

In William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet", the two lovers Romeo and Juliet had just found each other and fallen in love. But they did not seem to know anything more about their own family dispute. They just thought that their families will approve and be happy about their relationship.This present scene in Act I Scene v shows the start of their love and relationship. But we, the readers are already aware of the feud between the two families. This, is a case of dramatic irony in the play.

answer

answer: a: they can affect the author’s perspective and in turn the theme and purpose for the writing.

the author's background and time period greatly affect the text that the author produces. this is because we are all a reflection of our time period and background. depending on where and when we were born, we will find some questions more important than others. for example, if we are a wealthy person born in medieval times, we will most likely be interested in courtly love and stories of knights and honour. however, if we are born in the 20th century in africa, we might instead focus on colonialism and its effects on the newly liberated countries. the theme and the purpose of writing are both affected by these conditions.
