One conflict i noticed in R&J and found particularly interesting was that between Tybalt and Romeo. 'Twas an interpersonal conflict I reckon. Throughout the play Tybalt displays a murderous animosity towards romeo (Prince of cats, animosity, yeah I'm just that amazing), and Romeo displays an almost infantile neutrality. This only proves to push Tybalt to new heights of unbridled hatred, so high in fact that he ends up attempting Romeo's life and taking that of Romeo's best friend, Mercutio.
In my life, in your life, in absolutely everyone on earth's (sans most Buddhist monks) life, there is interpersonal conflict. From the pettiest of arguments between pals, or the most earth-shattering wars between foreign powers, it all boils down to people conflicting with people. Every society deals with conflict in different ways. Americans may settle it over a coffee and a long talk, Brits over some tea, and Japanese over a long drawn out kung-fu fighting scene; but they are all effective ways of soothing wounded pride and the like.
yeeeeaaaaaah
