Abstract: Onomancy is a significant technique in the Theurgical Literature. Mercutio and Juliet separately made their incantations with Romeos name called in order to alter the destination of the doomed stracrost lovers, but both failed. The problem within Juliets necromancy is the confliction of what a Renaissance man will be after his identity had been sabotaged. That is what Shakespeare paid efforts to consider in almost all his tragedies.

Key words: Juliet, witch, incantation, theurgical literature

摘要: 呼名法是通灵文学理论中重要的艺术手段。在莎士比亚的《罗密欧与朱丽叶》中,男性巫师与女性巫师分别运用呼名法,试图通过招魂术来变更故事中人物的命运悲剧,却以失败告终,朱丽叶的失算之处,乃是对于文艺复兴的人的身份经过通灵文学的重新塑造和定义而引发的冲突与不幸。这是莎氏悲剧力图思考和描述的问题。
