Love how i watched this video this morning and the relationship between Romeo and Juliet came up in the AQA paper, thank you so much

[hishamahmed]

Please could you do these kind of videos on the characters. It would be very appreciated

[hishamahmed]

Great video👍
Any chance you could do these kind of videos on the other themes such as: Religion, Conflict, Family, and Marriage

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 😁
