Summary "Las esposallas de la morta" by Víctor Balaguer is a dramatic work likely written in the late 19th century. This piece can be classified as a tragic play that draws inspiration from the timeless themes of love and fate, ultimately exploring the intense emotions and tragic consequences of forbidden love. It is set against a backdrop reminiscent of classic romances, specifically echoing the well-known story of Romeo and Juliet. The play centers around the doomed love affair between Julieta Capuletti and Romeu Monteschi, who are members of feuding families. The plot unfolds with their secret meetings and passionate exchanges, set amidst the tensions and violent rivalries that separate them. As the narrative progresses, tragedy strikes when Romeo is unwittingly drawn into conflict with Julieta's family, resulting in the death of her cousin Tybalt. In a desperate attempt to be together despite their families' enmity, Julieta fakes her own death using a narcotic provided by Friar Lawrence. However, the plan goes awry when Romeo, believing Julieta to be truly dead, takes his own life. When Julieta awakens and finds Romeo dead beside her, she too chooses to end her life, culminating in the heartbreaking message of the futility of their love amidst familial hatred.
