Romeo and Juliet

After reading William Shakespeares' Romeo and Juliet, you have a better understanding of the characters then when we are first introduced to them. Juliet Capulet, who is one of the main characters, is placed in a cruel and vicious adult world.  She is under many pressures and demands of her family. Thus, during the play Juliet becomes an independent, courageous, and heroic young woman. Many times in the play Juliet shows many acts of being independent. When she was under the pressure to marry Paris, Juliet stood up for what she thought was right and best for her and refused to marry him, this was a blatent rebelious act against what was sociably acceptable at the time.  In a lot of situations Juliet relied on the Nurse to guide her and make decisions for her. When the Nurse started pushing Juliet towards marring Paris and cutting down Romeo, she could no longer put trust in her and wanted nothing to do with her.

Throughout her role in the play Juliet showed allot of courage. For instance, Juliet decides to marry Romeo even though their families are enemies. She knows that her parents would never permit the marriage but lets the love lead her way. When  Juliet says to Friar Lawrence "Go get thee hence, for I wilt not away....


" Juliet is telling Friar that you can leave Romeo since he is dead but I will not because I love him. Her Juliet shows courage because she decides to stay with Romeo knowing that there is a lot at risk if anyone finds her.

  In the beginning of the play The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet when Juliet is first introduced, she is introduced as a young girl who is very faithful to her family, the Capulet family. In being faithful to her family, she is very compliant to the elders in her family. When the Capulet family's nurse calls Juliet, Juliet comes promptly. Then, she politely asks why she was called. Juliet also calls her mother, Lady Capulet, "madam" . Juliet is also compliant to her family when she is at the feast that her family throws. Not long after Juliet meets Romeo, her mother calls her. When she hears this, she immediately ends her conversation with Romeo to go and see why her mother called her. In addition to being very compliant to her family, she is also very compliant when she is asked to do anything. When Juliet's mother, Lady Capulet, asks her daughter Juliet about her opinions on marriage, Juliet is very respectful with her answer. She says, "It is and honor that I dream not of.". Juliet is very compliant when her mother, Lady Capulet, is discussing Paris's proposal with Juliet. Lady Capulet is pleased with the proposal by Paris and wants Juliet to consider it. Even though Juliet is not interested in marrying Paris, or anyone else, she agrees to consider the idea because that is what her mother, Lady Capulet, wants her to do. Juliet is faithful to her family through her compliance to them.

circumstances. Although Juillet belives she is adult, her father treats her as if she were a girl which is patronising and frustrating for Juillet and is the main factor for her rejecting the rennasance construct.
