Show transcript
Arguably, Friar Lawrence represents religion in 'Romeo and Juliet'. Throughout the play, we see Friar Lawrence influencing the lives and behaviour of characters. Potentially, we might see Shakespeare as criticising the influence of religion on society through Friar Lawrence. Furthermore, we might see Shakespeare as criticising Catholicism through Friar Lawrence.
