[@Dylbobz]

A dove trooping with crows is also a very good symbolism of the way Shakespeare links love with death. This is done throughout the play to foreshadow the later tragedy. Doves are often free’d at weddings and as you said represent purity. However, crows are symbolic of death, suggesting that Juliet is ‘trooping’ and stumbling down the path in which fate shall lead her to her death. Hopefully my exam tomorrow is about love or fate 😁

[@DrAidan]

That's a good interpretation. Good luck with the exam.

[@Dylbobz]

Dr Aidan the question was how does Shakespeare present the relationship between Romeo and juliet ☺️☺️☺️

[@DrAidan]

Thank you for letting me know and I hope you were pleased with the way your exam went.

[@DrAidan]

Thank you, that's very kind of you to say. I will be looking at some of the other themes in Romeo during the next few months.

Thank you for your question: I am planning to release a video soon that is designed to help you memorise the key events of the play so that you can more easily recall them when you are sitting the exam.

Hi again Bakrtopia. Just wanted to let you know that I have just uploaded the video on Romeo and Juliet designed to help you memorise and recall the key events of the play. Here's the link if you're interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZuTfaOfipKXjLM

What does petrarchan love mean, is it the same as unrequited

[@DrAidan]

Not exactly. It is unrequited in the sense that the love expressed by the 'lover' isn't returned by the 'loved' person.But it differs in the sense that it wasn't clear that Petrarch ever told Laura - the object of his love - that he was ever in love with her. Likewise, it isn't clear that Romeo ever tells Rosaline that he's in love with her - and so he's pining for an unattainable love. What's more, the whole point was to pine for someone you could not have. So it is in this sense that Romeo's love is Petrarchan. Hope that helps and good luck with the exam.

[@amberb3146]

thank you SO much!

[@pimrippinger6356]

very, very, very useful as i have an exam soon on the theme of love

Revising for Gcse

[@cloeywalker4811]

got anything about christmas carol? any key quotes you can tell for that like 4 themes and some quotes please tell thanks.

[@DrAidan]

I haven't yet got a video on A Christmas Carol, but here are a couple of suggestions that I made to someone else who had a similar question earlier. I'd think about contrasts. At the start Scrooge says 'Bah Humbug!' to describe the idea of Christmas, but at the end he says 'I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year'. At the beginning he is described as someone who 'carried his own low temperature' and was as hard as 'flint'. By the end 'his own heart laughed'. For themes, I'd think about Social Responsibility (are we responsible for others?), Poverty v Wealth (should we share our good fortune?) and Christmas (i.e. what does Christmas stand for and should we only be as generous as we are at Christmas just once a year?). I hope that's useful and good luck with the exam.

…..your lack of knowledge makes you say it that way….go read the Bible and maybe you’ll be given the right to be God’s child…don’t speak of something you don’t know….im sure you don’t even know God Himself let alone Jesus…so please go read the Bible and get your facts right
