Would I be correct in thinking that Hamlet is one of the two Shakepeare plays you have read or seen ?

Before Pedantic of Purley beats me to it: 'wherefore' (no 7) means 'why', not 'where'? Approximately. Not many people know that. They seem to think it's Juliet on the balcony shading her eyes as she searches the moonlit garden for her lover.
She's complaining that Romeo's name shows his allegiance to the enemy family and that life would be simpler for her if he had a nice non-partisan name. Like Brooklyn or Cruz.
You haven't seen the play have you? It's very silly, I wouldn't bother.

Getting back to Romeo and Juliet ... Shouldn't the line be "Wherefore art thou Montague". The first name doesn't cause a problem.
Dom | 25.04.07 - 9:26 p.m. | #

It should, shouldn't it? But I used to soothe myself with the thought that Romeo was the sort of name that told people immediately what family you came from. Like Brooklyn and Cruz.

Mind you, anyone who would saddle a daughter with a name like Juliet Capulet deserves to lose her to an unsuitable suitor.

When I read No. 8, I thought it was "Turn, hellhound, turn!" (also from Macbeth") and not "Out, damned spot!".
