Romeo and Juliet

William Shakespeare's "e;Romeo and Juliet"e; is considered to be one of the greatest tragic love stories of all time. Romeo who is a member of the house of Montague falls in love with Juliet who is a member of the house of Capulet. The Montagues and the Capulets have been engaged in a feud for many years and as such the love between Romeo and Juliet is forbidden. Written near the end of the 16th century, "e;Romeo and Juliet,"e; which is one of Shakespeare's earliest dramas, is the story of love that can never be realized and the tragedy that ensues.
