This has been my theory also !! I don't know shakespear's work as well as you seem to, yet Romeo and Juliet always felt like a caricature... Might be weird, but to me it had the same kind of vibe as The princess Bride :P
Wow! That's a really interesting way to put it, Eve! Your views are always out of the box. Impressive!^^
i completely agree with you because if you were to read any other William Shakespeare books and to see the other men are being so smart in their actions then doing it off their guts. This book has no true love in it but alot of false love in it. Only i see is confusion on love and emotion.

If Shakespeare were alive today and saw how seriously people are taking Romeo and Juliet (and his words in general), he'd laugh himself to death.

I agree with you. I'm not sure what's so romantic about it. Twelfth night was better in the romance department. And had a much better story. It seems that he wrote this as you said to explore love and the foolishness of some peoples definition of love. Romeo was weird. In the beginning he was hung up on Rosalyn (I think that was her name) and then all of a sudden he was in love with Juliet.
Great review :)
