Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can use tentative language to write about Shakespeare’s intentions in ‘Romeo and Juliet’.

Show transcript
Arguably, Shakespeare shows Juliet as both exerting agency and assuming a passive role in ‘Romeo and Juliet’. A writer’s intentions can reveal their overall message - what are they saying about society or humanity. Using tentative language is important because we can never truly be sure of a writer’s intentions.
