Eulogy Rubric

This document provides a rubric for evaluating eulogies for characters in Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet". The rubric assesses eulogies based on four criteria: content, references from the text, tone, and structure/grammar. Higher scores are given to eulogies that thoroughly capture the character's personality, relationship to Juliet, and reaction to her death, while incorporating multiple references from the text and having an appropriate funereal tone and well-structured writing.
