Capulet's Rebellion In Romeo And Juliet

For example, on the Balcony scene, when Romeo encountered Juliet, Juliet exclaimed, “O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? / Deny thy father and refuse thy name, / Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, / And I’ll no longer be a Capulet” (2.2.36-39). This quote toward the middle of the story demonstrates that Juliet truly loves Romeo, meaning that she regrets that Romeo is a Montague, and that she is a Capulet. The division between their families produces a lot of issues for them because the Capulet and the Montagues have massacred themselves continuously. Shakespeare uses connotation and symbolism by deeply showing that Juliet is essentially asking Romeo, why he is a Montague? Juliet asks Romeo to object his last name, so they could have a peaceful relationship, not separated by violence. In addition to this, when Juliet went to consult Friar Lawrence concerning the marriage with Count Paris, she said, “O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris, / From off the battlements of any tower, / Or walk in thievish ways, or bid me lurk / Where serpents are. Chain me with roaring bears, / Or hide me nightly in a charnel house” (4.1.78-81). This quote towards the end of the story demonstrates that Juliet prefers to die than to marry Count Paris. She is essentially saying that she’ll

She is now more interested in love than to be herself. We all get to that stage at one point and this is reflecting how teenagers are in real life. Her view on marriage changes as she confesses her love to Romeo "Take all myself,"(Act 2 Scene 2). When Romeo overheard her on the balcony confessing her loves she broke a major rule and this is where all the trouble starts. They both went to Friar Laurence to get married and little after is revealed that Lord Capulet, her dad, has arranged her a marriage with Paris in a couple days. The marriage is a little after she meets Romeo so she wants to be clean and no sinful so she want to be rebellious to show that she does not like Paris. “But, an you will not wed, I'll pardon you! Graze where you will you shall not house with me… An you be mine, I'll give you to my friend; And you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets, For, by my soul, I'll ne'er acknowledge thee, Nor what is mine shall never do thee good: Trust to't, bethink you; I'll not be forsworn.”(Act 3 Scene 5) This is Juliet’s father threatening to disown her and Juliet responds with “And I'll no longer be a Capulet.” Juliet is willing to give up her name, her life to be in love with

As the daughter of Lord Capulet and Lady Capulet, Juliet is forced to obey her parents and marry a gentleman named Paris. Unfortunately, Juliet refuses to do so and chooses to be with the love of her life, Romeo Montague. As written, Lady Capulet suggested that Juliet marries Paris because of his good looks and money. Though marriage never crossed Juliet’s mind she still took it into consideration up until she laid eyes on Romeo Montague, the son of her family’s worse enemies, and fell madly in love with him. Juliet was so in love she prepared to disobey her parents and marry Romeo in secret, choosing him over her family. After their marriage, Lord Capulet demanded his right as Juliet’s father to marry Paris, just as Juliet refused to marry

He changes his thoughts about the relationship between Paris and Juliet. When he first speaks to Paris, regarding Juliet’s marriage, he says it is her choice, but later on in the story, he demands that Juliet marry Paris (I.ii)(III.v).

This statement illustrates how Juliet could feel unloved and extremely hurt. Lord Capulet has a strong influence in the death of Romeo and

In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, there are several occurrences that cause Juliet to rebel. During the time of Shakespeare, Renaissance marriage customs were reflected upon male dominance and how women had little choice of whom they wanted to marry.

Juliet goes against the basic rules that are set by their families, and their own judgment. Juliet directly disobeys her father and shows her bravery.

However, having said that, Lord Capulet has a change of heart in Act three. Also, in Act I, Lord Capulet says, “ My child is yet a stranger in the world, / She hath not seen the change of fourteen years.” In plain English, Lord Capulet says that Juliet is too young to be married. This goes against cultural expectations because during the Elizabethan era, most of the time a marriage was arranged for girls before they could walk.
