What is at least one way that Shakespeare transformed the plot, setting, or characters from the Roman myth “Pyramus and Thisbe”? and why do you think he transformed Romeo and Juliet in this way?

Explanation:

One way Shakespeare transformed the plot of Pyramus and Thisbe into Romeo and Juliet is that they were neighbors. In Romeo and Juliet, the families just hated each other. While Romeo and Juliet is a similar story, Pyramus and Thisbe got to communicate to each other through a small hole in the wall. Romeo and Juliet actually had to sneak out to see each other. While both stories end with a tragic misunderstanding, Pyramus and Thisbe was focused on those two, and Romeo and Juliet kind of focused on the story as a whole, including the family feud, and even secondary characters. I think Shakespeare transformed the story in this way because turning the story into more than just the two lovers makes it a more memorable, tragic tale, for everyone.

Hope this helps :)
