Lady Capulet and the Nurse In Romeo and Juliet’s play, Juliet has a stringent mother, who is not very close to her, on the other hand, Juliet’s Nurse, the women that breastfed her when she was a baby, acts as her true mother. Even though both of them love Juliet, they demonstrate it very differently. Lady Capulet and the Nurse are dramatic foils for each other: their contrasting characteristics, like their level of education, how they treat Juliet and how they see marriage, make them two drastically
Romeo and Juliet is a play written by William Shakespeare, the plot being fueled by the “ancient grudge” (Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare 2) between two families: Montague and Capulet. The reason for the feud is unknown throughout the entire play and Shakespeare never reveals it. Many theories have been formed, including the most popular one that the feud began so many years ago that the families don’t remember. But this is just one of the variations because in every play the motives for the feud
