Answer and Explanation:
Shakespeare's great inspiration for writing "Romeo and Juliet" was the Roman tale called "Pyramus and Thisbe". Shakespeare used elements of this story with aggravation, modifying them to be more appropriate for the society of the time and for the effects he wanted to cause.
One of the great elements of "Pyramus and Thisbe" used in his work was the existence of two beautiful young people who fall in love, but they cannot be together because their families do not allow it and they die because of a misunderstanding. However, many people forget another important element that Shakespeare also used, which was the way these two young people communicate through a wall. This wall represents not only the physical separation between them, but reinforces the concept of family and sentimental separation between the two, which reinforces the conflict established in the narrative.
