Act 1 Scene 3 Of William Shakespeare 's Romeo And Juliet

In the play, Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, a prolonged and bitter quarrel between the Montague and Capulet families disturb the city of Verona and causes tragedies for Romeo and dear Juliet. Revenge, love, and a secret marriage force the young lovers to grow up quickly, and fate causes them to commit suicide in despair. The Nurse is an important character in the classic drama Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. She is the personal servant and guardian (and former wet nurse) of Juliet Capulet and has been since Juliet was born. Later on in the play when Juliet figures out that her parents expect her to marry Paris, the Nurse tries to get the Juliet to go on ahead with the marriage. Even though Juliet was already married to Romeo, the Nurse felt as if Juliet would never see her true love Romeo again. Following this, Juliet felt betrayed and decides never to share any more of her secrets with the Nurse.

Romeo and Juliet From William Shakespeare Romeo and Juliet is the most famous love story in the English literary tradition. The most important theme is love, specifically, love at first sight between Romeo and Juliet. I chose to write about the Nurse because she is the personal servant, guardian and former wet nurse of Juliet Capulet, and has been with Juliet since she was born. This character played a strong part in allowing Romeo and Juliet’s relationship to grow and their passion to become stronger because she sends the letters to Romeo and helped them arrange their secret marriage. She also affected the tragic ending because she did not intervene when Juliet was to marry Paris. Because of the fight between the Capulets and the Montagues,

Act 3 scene 1 of ‘Romeo and Juliet’ is a very important scene in the

The fond relationship of Juliet and Nurse, reflects the love between both characters despite their different social class. When nurse’s character answers, ‘Indeed. Heavens, I can tell [Juliet’s] age to the exact hour’ (pg. 53), it becomes apparent to the audience the love and importance of Juliet in nurse’s life. Through creating a close bond between Nurse and Juliet, Shakespeare demonstrates the love between the two characters, in spite of the hatred of society on the lower class, thus reaffirming, that love overpowers hatred of social class. An illustration of the idea that love triumphs hatred is explored when Romeo insults the Nurse by saying, ‘What wilt thou tell her, nurse? Thou dost not mark me’ (Pg.136). Shakespeare utilises this quote to emphasis the disrespectful mannerism which the upper class treated the lower class. Additionally, the playwright distinctly creates Juliet’s nurse and Juliet’s biological mother to be juxtaposition to exemplify the prominence of love within the play. The unexpected relationship of Nurse and Juliet identifies how love has no boundaries, not even social class, and as a result Shakespeare enforces that love conquers hatred. Similarly to the way Shakespeare utilises the character of Nurse, he also uses characters, Montague and Capulet, to explore the prominence of love suppressing

In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the nurse is characterized as a motherly figure towards Juliet. The nurse illustrates these motherly instincts by giving support to Juliet throughout everything that happens to her. When Juliet receives the terrible news of her cousin Tybalt’s death, she

The Nurse is described as the servant and guardian of Juliet, but treats Juliet more as a friend than a daughter. This is enumerated when the Nurse helps Juliet and Romeo, “ Your lady mother is coming to your chamber: the day is broke be wary, look about” (3.5.39-40). This reveals how the Nurse acted more as a friend than a mother figure and betrayed the capulets. This also displays how she contributed to the demise of Romeo and Juliet by helping them pursue a relationship that was technically forbidden. Later, after that the Nurses true intentions and characteristics come out when she declaims “ Faith here it is. Romeo is banished and all the world to nothing” (3.5.214-215). Because of this it causes Juliet not to trust the nurse anymore and brings out the Nurses true characteristics greedy and misleading. Subsequently this shows how the Nurses misleading and greediness help lead toward the demise of the two

In Act 3, scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare manipulates the mood and atmosphere of the new scene using suspense, foreshadowing, dramatic irony and juxtaposition.

Richard's heart fluttered in relief when he heard Lexi's familiar voice, and he fixated his gaze on the silhouette that appeared at the second-floor window, before the Heiress herself appeared. The nerves that had strained his mind and body all day, loosened, and he began to shake at the sight of Lexi, proof his lover was safe. It wasn't over yet, and the knowledge that Karl Williams was aware of their intent - just how aware, Richard still wasn't cognisant of – meant his senses remained heightened as his attention moved from her to the vine.

The Nurse was the person who took care of Juliet and nursed her since birth. Juliet and the Nurse have a closer relationship than Juliet and her mother. The nurse seems to tell many stories in the beginning when she is introduced. “ ‘Yes’ quoth he, ‘dost thou fall upon thy face? Thou wilt fall backward when

From the very beginning of the play, the audience is introduced to the motherly influence the Nurse has on Juliet through their deep connection and affection. Juliet’s Nurse has raised her since she was a baby and has also helped her to grow into the person she has become. Juliet confides in her Nurse about her interest in Romeo after meeting him. Her Nurse caring for Juliet unconditionally, went to seek and found Romeo and explains to him that his, “Young lady bid [her] enquire you out. What she bade me say, I will keep to myself” (2.4.142-143). The Nurse, seeking, locating and talking to Romeo on Juliet’s behalf, enables and encourages Juliet to continue pursuing Romeo romantically. When the Nurse returns to Juliet and explains the arrangement

In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the Nurse is Juliet’s bawdy, lower-class confidant, and in Act 2 she shows the same rough and unfiltered personality as in Act 1. Throughout, it is clear that she loves Juliet but lacks the sophistication and poise of a noblewoman to raise Juliet as a well-behaved Capulet. In Act 2, Scene 4, the Nurse’s altruistic protection of Juliet seems fueled by her desire for personal respect as a laborer of the Capulet House. For example, she loses her composure when Benvolio and Mercutio taunt her for her age, large size, and low social status because she is accustomed to higher respect. The boys compare her veils to "a sail,” implying she is large as a ship, which provokes a misdirected pompous tone from her when

The Nurse’s key function in the play is to act as a go-between for both Romeo and Juliet, but she doesn't really stay true to her words sometimes. In Act 1 Scene 5, the Nurse interrupts Romeo and Juliet, and she sends Juliet to go to her mother for a word. During her non-appearance, Romeo goes up to the Nurse and asks who the fair lady is, and he discovers that she is a Capulet, declaring a pain in his heart. As Romeo goes away and Juliet returns, she also discovers by the Nurse that Romeo is a Montague, from the enemy family. Surprised by the news of the two, the Nurse leads Juliet away at the end. To add on, the Nurse is the only other character besides Friar Lawrence to know about Romeo and Juliet’s elopement. In defiance of

Act 3 Scene 1 of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet In the romantic tragedy `Romeo and Juliet` William Shakespeare uses dramatic techniques and devices to convey emotional inclines and declines, emphasise breaks and linking tensions as well as to underline the outlying plot diversification. Preceding Act 3 Scene 1 we see Romeo fall madly in love with Juliet and marry her, both showing his instinctive nature, and setting the scene for this dramatic twists soon to follow. In this way Shakespeare creates a semantic field of happiness, which he shows by the use of "positive" phrases, which are colourful and effervescent.

In the middle of Romeo and Juliet, this scene from act 3 scene 1 is one of the most dramatic events during the play. Shakespeare uses many dramatic techniques to convey to the audience the powerful forces of love and death. He emphasises the tragedy and dramedy of this scene, which further foreshadows later events in the play.
