6 Juliet Juliet is 13 and the daughter of Capulet and Lady Capulet. Her character at first appears to be quiet, obedient and innocent. She then meets and shows she is not as shy as we think. She speaks as much as him and in the same style, and they kiss twice. She then tells the audience of her love for, knowing his family is hated by hers. She later announces her love for him again, not knowing he can hear. Her thoughts are complex, showing her intelligence, and that her love of is sincere. When she realises he is there, her thoughts are immediately for his safety. She asks him to say he loves her, yet seems very practical about it, not wanting any proof - just his word. Juliet shows her independence by proposing marriage. She also says she will follow 'throughout the world'. Juliet does not doubt her husband, even when she learns he has killed her cousin. She is prepared to commit suicide for him, then bravely carries out the Friar's plan, meaning she disobeys her parents and takes a huge risk. Finally, she commits suicide when she discovers dead beside her. What makes Juliet a tragic hero? What is Juliet s hamartia (tragic flaw)?

7 How do each of these characters contribute to the tragic end of the play? Answer in full sentences. The Nurse Friar Lawrence Benvolio The Nurse is like a mother to Juliet. She takes a great risk in helping her, and seems completely devoted to her. She makes fun of her, too, and is rude - but means only the best for Juliet. The Nurse talks a lot, often in a rambling way, but appears to be genuinely nice and caring. However, she advises Juliet to marry Paris and does not seem to appreciate how much Juliet loves. The Friar is like a father to. He often offers advice and clearly knows very well. He also seems to be wise, and is trusted by everyone. He knows a lot and appears to be practical. However, he takes a huge risk when he secretly marries and Juliet. His plan to save her does not work either. And his actions lead to the deaths of the couple. Benvolio is another of 's friends, and makes a good contrast to both Mercutio and Tybalt. His name can be understood as 'good wishes', and he is determined to do all he can to stop the fights between the two families. Lord Capulet Capulet, Juliet's father, is ready to fight Montague, but then appears to be friendly and welcoming, inviting people to his party. And he stops Tybalt from fighting in his house. However, Capulet is a very traditional father. He arranges Juliet's marriage to Paris and is furious when she does not obey him. Mercutio Tybalt Mercutio is one of 's best friends who loves entertaining people and making fun of them. He plays around with language and is full of imagination in his speeches. He is also very coarse, linking many things with sex, and seems keen to pick a fight with almost anyone he meets. Mercutio, whose loyalty to his best friend, combined with his confrontational attitude, results in his death. Tybalt is Juliet s cousin. Tybalt is also a very aggressive character. He only seems interested in fighting 's family, and everything he says is full of anger and hatred. Lady Capulet Lady Capulet is not very close to her daughter, Juliet. She has little to do with her, and will not take Juliet's side against her husband. She would have married Lord Capulet when she was about Juliet s age and would have had Juliet at a young age too..
8 Language Anthisesis Opposites are used frequently in and Juliet. They highlight the conflicts in the story. So we can find lots of references to light and darkness, or love and hatred. The technical term for this is antithesis, when words are deliberately chosen to contrast with one another. For instance, as the day breaks after her marriage, Juliet realises must leave her and says 'More light and light, more dark and dark our woes!' Just compare that with: 'It's morning,, and I'm worried about things.' Hopefully you will see that Shakespeare's version has a far stronger effect, even 400 years after he wrote it. Oxymoron An Oxymoron is when words with opposing meanings are put together, like 'sweet sorrow', 'deafening silence', 'alone together' and 'bitter sweet'. Sometimes it might not be clear what a character means, for instance, when talks of 'sick health'. However, using a technique like this shows the audience just how confused is at this point in the play. Pun Another technique Shakespeare uses is the pun. A lot of jokes are puns - a play on words using words that sound similar but have different meanings. So when Mercutio is dying he says that tomorrow he will be a 'grave man' - 'grave' as in 'serious', but also as in 'dead and buried'. Simile A simile is when a direct comparison is made using 'as' or 'like' - so love moves 'as schoolboys from their books'. This comparison allows us our own ideas about being in love. Why does say that he moves to Juliet as a schoolboy leaves his books? Do schoolboys enjoy studying? Are they grateful when they have finished? Are they quick to stop and put their books down? That should help us to understand just how powerful love can be. Metaphors A metaphor is when one thing is described in terms of something else. So Juliet becomes 'the sun', and then 'an angel', for. Think about the qualities of the Sun: it provides warmth, lightness and life to everything on Earth. Then think about just how important Juliet is to. Now think about the qualities of an angel - how does this help us to see Juliet through 's eyes? Personification Personification is where something is described as if it is human. So 'April' can be well-dressed and 'tread' on other things, or Death can be ready to marry Juliet. How does this foreshadow her tragic end? Verse structure Another way of looking at the language of and Juliet is to examine the lines. Many of them are written in blank verse, so they have ten syllables which are organised in five pairs. The first syllable is weak, the second stronger. If we look at a typical line, we traditionally show the weak or unstressed syllable with an 'x' above it, and the stressed syllable with a '/' above it. In this example, the word 'never' is split in two, because it has two syllables. x / x / x / x / x / He jests at scars that nev - er felt a wound Reading it like this, we can hear an obvious beat. We can also see that the key words tend to be stronger. Just by hearing these, we can still make some sense of the line (jests - scars - nev - felt - wound). If we only have the unstressed syllables, there is very little we can understand (he - at - that - er - a). Using this technique, you can sometimes see what Shakespeare might be trying to emphasise. It also provides a structure to the play - it holds things together. We can even anticipate where an actor will finish speaking.
9 It also means that when the pattern changes there might be a reason for this. For instance, when Mercutio is dying, he does not use blank verse making him seem sincerer now, as if he is speaking from the heart. In the extract you will receive for your assessment, consider if there is a break from blank verse and why Shakespeare might have done this? How to work language into your PEE answer: If your question was: 'How does Juliet change during the course of and Juliet?' You could write: When we see Juliet in Act 2, Scene 2, it is clear she is totally in love with. She declares it not knowing he is there, and, despite all the obstacles in their path, only asks him to pronounce his love for her 'faithfully', calling him 'gentle '. Her trust is complete, just as it is later in the scene when she promises she will put all her 'fortunes' at his feet and follow him' throughout the world'. Juliet describes her love using conventional similes, so her bounty is 'as boundless as the sea' and her love 'as deep' (as the sea). However, Juliet is also capable of quite astonishing language. The oxymoron of 'sweet sorrow' illustrates perfectly her passion and devotion to. This is a very different Juliet to the one we meet with her mother and the Nurse back in Act 1 Scene 3. Women in a patriarchal society Context (Answer these questions in full sentences) Women were often dependent on the men to support them with everything; women had no rights legally they could not own property or money! Why was it important for Juliet s family for her to marry Paris? Family Women s lives often consisted of arranged (by their parents) and loveless marriages. How does Juliet break from this tradition? If a woman s father made a request, the woman was expected to obey it without question. Does Juliet obey her father without question? Children were considered as property of the father (like an object to be given). How is Juliet affected by this patriarchal society? Family honour was strongly believed in; any damage against it was considered very bad and unusual. How strong must and Juliet s love be then to go against their family? It was unthinkable for a teenager to go against the wishes of their family. How would an Elizabethan audience react to and Juliet s actions? Verona was a small town and so every family knew one another; news travelled fast, and if you did something wrong, your family would find out for sure.. Religion In high society (high status), children were often raised by a nurse and therefore did not have a strong relationship with their parents. Which character does this apply to in and Juliet? Many Shakespeare plays (like The Tempest) show conflict between parents and their children. Which character experiences conflict with their parent? Religion was extremely important and people believed strongly in God. Religious language therefore was used as a sign of holiness and a connection with God. What examples can you find from Act 1 Scene 5? God was on everyone s minds; it was believed that if you sinned, you would go to Hell. Are and Juliet sinning? Suicide was considered to be a mortal sin which means you would go to Hell. How strong must and Juliet s love be then to commit suicide?
