Romeo and Juliet was a tragedy. At the end of the play two young innocent lives were lost because of an old family feud between the Capulets and the Montagues. Perhaps several characters played a minor role in these tragic events but I believe that Lord Capulet‚ Juliet’s own father‚ was ultimately responsible for her death.
