romeo and juliet reflection

I chose this picture for Romeo because to me it shows how Romeo and Juliet are divided by there parents. And they could be together if they just go around there parents. All they have to do is act on they heart and they can be together. That is why I chose this one for romeo.









I chose this picture for Juliet because it reminds me how Juliet is trapped.

Torture and Punishment

Torture and punishment during elizabethan times


In elizabethan times torture was a normal everyday thing. Torture has been used for at least 2,000 years. When Queen Elizabeth had the throne torture was used more than in any time in history. Treason was considered the worst crime, lords and high officials were exempt and women almost never got tortured. The Punishments for crimes differ, like for poisoning you got boiled alive. And for adultery women get put in the dunking chair and are repeatedly dunked until dead. And some minor cruelties include the pillory, the stocks, and the ranks.
