Taxonomy of Love
Do you know about the Taxonomy of Love? The Taxonomy of Love is a speculation that practices belief in five types of savor concupiscence, Ludus, Storge, Mania, and Pragma. The great William Shakespeare wrote the sad tale of Romeo and Juliet, which can perfectly be related to the Taxonomy of Love. Because Romeo is an Eros devotee and Juliet is a Mania buff they are more likely to plump tragical heroes. I believe Romeo is an Eros lover because he is indeed ready for love in all of its aspects and idealizes and almost fantasizes about his life with Juliet. Juliet on the other hand is what I would say fits into the definition of a Mania lover.Juliet is a Mania lover because she wants to see Romeo daily, however when he is banished from the town, and because she becomes fiercely indifferent with thoughts of Romeo and needs his love. Two examples that support Romeo being an Eros lover are the fact that he killed himself for Juliets love and the sheer idea that he even after being banished from the town an being imperil with death if he returned still snuck inside the village to see Juliet. Two examples that support Juliets love for Romeo being Mania are her non only wanting to see Romeo daily but the whim that if she didnt see her dear Romeo she became vastly upset nd never wanted him to leave her presence. The irregular reason that supports Juliet being a Mania lover is the fact that she was completely aware of Romeos banishment from the town she still could not simply end the forbidden relationship. My first quote from Romeo and Juliet that I intuitive feeling explains Why Romeo is an Eros lover comes from (Act V, scene III, lines 68-73. )In lines 68-73 lies the battle between Romeo and capital of France That leads to Paris death. The battle begins by Paris saying I do defy thy conjuration/ and apprehend thee for a felon here. / Romeo then says Wilt thou provoke me? Then have at thee, boy / Page says O Lord, they fight I will go call the watch. / Paris then utters the words O, I am slain If thou be merciful,/ Open the tomb, Lay me with Juliet. After those words Paris dies. The quote listed above shows pure implications that Romeos Love is indeed that of the Eros style. This shows implications Because one of the rule of thumbs that goes along with being an Eros lover are that you have to be ready for love and all of its risks. That being said, Romeo took the ultimate risk of fight Paris who is The kinsman to the Prince who threatened Romeo with death if he were to step foot in the town.Also, the very fact that even after Page said he was going to get the watch Romeo still stood his ground with Paris and risked being apprehended and put to death. The second quote comes from (Act V, scene III, lines 191-120 Romeo says Heres to my love Drinks. O true Apothecary / Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die. This also waterfall under the guidelines of being an Eros lover Because Romeo once again, takes a risk for love. The ris k Romeo took this time was the ultimate risk in which was his life. Being that he took his own life for Juliet shows true Eros loveBeing that he would not only die for her but would even go to hell for her. I will now eat two quotes as to which support Juliet being a Mania lover. My first quote comes from (Act V, scene III, lines 175-176) Juliet says This is thy guinea pig there rust, and let me die. / She stabs herself and falls on Romeos body. This is the perfect example of Mania love because Juliet basically Implies that seeing Romeo dead and not being able to be with him Might as well be death. She then kills herself and falls across her dear Romeos body. This goes with the guideline of Mania love because the guidelineIs the idea that the mortal becomes convinced that life without the partners love is hardly worth living. My second quote that supports Juliets love as being that of the Mania kind is from (Act III, scene V, lines1-3. Juliet says to Romeo Wilt thou be bygone? It is not yet near day. /It was the nightingale, and not the lark,/ that piercd the fearful hollow of thine ear. This quote goes along with the guideline of Mania love Wants to see the partner at least daily, and is easily upset By delays and postponements. I firmly believe that this perfectly fits into the guideline because Juliet was not ready for RomeoTo leave her presence and began to become frustrated When Romeo protested and said It was the lark the herald of the morn Romeo and Juliet are tragic heroes because of their love styles. Romeo being a Eros lover leads to his downfall because of his risky behavior out of love. Juliet being a Mania style lover leads to her downfall because she Believes life without Romeo is insignificant and is no longer worth living for. In Conclusion, Romeo and Juliet are tragic heroes and any other Lovers who share the same love styles as them are apt to becoming tragic heroes.
