中文摘要：《罗密欧与朱丽叶》不仅是莎士比亚最著名的爱情悲剧之一，更跻身于世界最著名文学史和最著名戏剧史的行列。罗密欧与朱丽叶之间矢志不渝、催人泪下的悲剧爱情给读者心灵带来的震撼之巨大，足以影响一代又一代追求浪漫爱情的年轻恋人。虽然人们大多称颂罗密欧与朱丽叶的浪漫悲剧爱情，但在感慨之余却鲜有对这段悲剧爱情的原因进行探究，尤其是人物性格特征方面对这段悲剧爱情的影响。鉴于此，本文结合前人研究成果，分析了人物性格特征对这段悲剧爱情带来的影响。本文旨在引发读者对人类社会和人类性格中的悲剧因素的思考。通过分析发现，《罗密欧与朱丽叶》中的人物的性格特征中隐藏的悲剧因素，都直接或间接导致了罗密欧与朱丽叶的悲剧爱情。人们在爱情道路上，要勇于破除封建思想道德观念，勇于谋求自己的美妙自在的恋情；也提醒父母辈的读者不要因为封建思想过于干涉子女的爱情，不然只会两败俱伤。
