Romeo is emphasising the fact that Juliet shows out against all other women. He says that she looks like a bright jewel on a dark man, or a white dove surrounded by black crows. Romeo also states that her beauty is too much that one can not handle it and that the beauty is too much for normal people. Romeo says that she is so beautiful that she teaches torches how to be bright and that, what he thought was beauty before was nothing compared to her attractiveness.
\nIn this monologue the iambic pentameter form helps to emphasize points, to make a love statement more beautiful and a speech pleasant to hear. One way that the iambic pentameter form helps emphasize the points is by making the strong syllables the adjectives that stick to ones head. For example in most of the last word of every verse is an important adjective I the description. Not only the last word is important but many stressed words are important too. One example of this of stressed syllables being important is the \u201cSo shows a snowy dove trooping with crows.\u201d He is trying to stress that she shows out like a white bird with crows, and one sees the strong syllables being; shows, snow-, crows. Another way that the iambic pentameter helps him is by giving a certain rhythm making the monologue more pleasing for the ear. this type of musicality also helps to convey the feeling of love, this is because music normally helps to express feelings.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"36091670","dateCreated":"1300409426","smartDate":"Mar 17, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"jose_4595","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/jose_4595","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/36091670"},"dateDigested":1531974097,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"jose rodriguez","description":"Her beauty is as bright as a torch
\nShe shines in the night like an earring in the ear of an Ethiopian.
\nHer beauty is to great for the earth
\nShe is like a dove among crows, when she stands with other women she stands out more.
\nJust by being with her I am blessed
\nDid I love before now? No.
\nbefore I saw her, I hadn't seen beauty.

\nThis is what Romeo was saying about Juliet in the play Romeo and Juliet. He used an iambic pentameter to write this. Iambic pentameter is a common meter in poetry consisting of an unrhymed line with five feet or accents, each foot containing an unaccented syllable and an accented syllable. I think that writing like this has an advantage. I think this because it looks and sounds better because it has rhythm. I also think that we can focus on what he is talking about better because he puts key words on the end of the line. For example, Romeo is talking about how he feels about Juliet, he uses the words ear, hand and sight to tell us how he sees Juliet. These words are related because they have to do with the five senses which are touch, smell, taste, sight, and hear. Those three words all have to do with them. Romeo is saying that Juliet stands out more than other women, that she is different. We can see that in the last word in the first line and in the last word of the last line, bright and night. Those words are opposites, bright is a light color and night is dark. So if Juliet were in a group of dark people she\u2019d stand out because she is bright, and vice versa. This is also a good technique because the work looks and sounds more organized. So I think that writing in iambic pentameter is an advantage.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"36061956","dateCreated":"1300382245","smartDate":"Mar 17, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"taeyang","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/taeyang","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/pic\/1223342653\/taeyang-lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/36061956"},"dateDigested":1531974097,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Brian Romeo N Juliet","description":"Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written early in the career of playwright William Shakespeare about two young teenagers whose deaths ultimately unite their feuding families. It was among Shakespeare's most popular archetypal stories of young, teenage lovers.
\nIn this passage, Romeo is like crazy about Juliet, she describes her as every goods. "Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear" He describes her as a jewel in an Ethiope's ear. He keeps describing Juliet as a beauty light, and all beauty that he can say. We can see how he loves her from this sentence "I'll watch her place of stand,".

\nThe writing skill that Shakespeare used was \u201ciambic pentameter\u201d The iambic pentameter is is a commonly used metrical line in traditional verse and verse drama. The term describes the particular rhythm that the words establish in that line. That rhythm is measured in small groups of syllables; these small groups of syllables are called "feet". The word "iambic" describes the type of foot that is used. We can see he used most 10 syllables in a sentence (in the passage that Romeo spoke). But Shakespeare used too much iambic writing so sometimes it\u2019s hard to read. And sometimes he limes some words and it gives reader some rhythm. If you don\u2019t know anything about Shakespeare and his writing skills, or \u201chis words\u201d it\u2019s really hard to understand, but by that we need to think more, we can pay more attention to the writing, and read more carefully.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[{"id":"36062050","body":"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Iambic_pentameter<\/a> i used this link to describe Iambic pentameter","dateCreated":"1300382284","smartDate":"Mar 17, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"taeyang","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/taeyang","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/pic\/1223342653\/taeyang-lg.jpg"}},{"id":"36066768","body":"Great Brian,

When he says Juliet teaches the torches to burn bright he\u2019s making her seem like a goddess because there is no human that can illuminate or shine brighter than the fire of the torches. The theme of the first verses is light. He continues comparing Juliet\u2019s light and beauty by saying she is like a rich jewel hanging on the ear of an Ethiopian. He makes her outshine by making her a shining jewel next to a dark, dull skin color. The expression is used as a metaphor to make her stand out over all the other woman because she is the only woman that will shine in the darkness of the night. She is also the only snowy dove among all the crows referring to her being the only one that stands out among the other entire woman in the world. Romeo hadn\u2019t seen true beauty until he saw Juliet; he had fallen in love for the first time. He couldn\u2019t believe all of Juliet\u2019s beauty.
\n The benefits of the iambic pentameter are that Shakespeare was able to emphasize words that would conclude to different ideas or themes. For example he wanted to emphasize the theme of beauty; so he used such words like bright, dear, and sight to conclude the idea of beauty. He also planted words like night and crows, which are the opposite of light and beauty. He used the theme of light and used the words like bright, and the opposite night. The light can give you the sensation of warmth and it makes you infer Juliet was warm hearted. After all, it never mentions anything about her physical beauty; it just makes her stand out over the rest. It also said he loved her, and therefore it makes me infer he was talking more about the inner beauty, rather than the outer.","replyPages":[{"page":0,"digests":[],"more":0}]},{"id":"36010564","dateCreated":"1300314186","smartDate":"Mar 16, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"pprada","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/pprada","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/pic\/1315457538\/pprada-lg.jpg"},"monitored":false,"locked":false,"links":{"self":"https:\/\/davidgarethw-books-b.wikispaces.com\/share\/view\/36010564"},"dateDigested":1531974097,"startDate":null,"sharedType":"discussion","title":"Paula Prada","description":"Shakespeare is comparing Juliet to light.
