Romeo ja Julia
Translated by Paavo Emil Cajander
"Romeo ja Julia" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written between 1591 and 1595 about the romance between two young Italians from feuding families. Set in Verona, the play follows the fateful love between Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet, whose families are sworn enemies. Their secret marriage, aided by Friar Laurence, sets off a chain of events involving duels, banishment, and desperate plans. Today, Romeo and Juliet stand as archetypal young lovers in one of Shakespeare's most frequently performed works.
