  • Romeo & Juliet
    AQA English Literature GCSE Romeo and Juliet: Character Profile Juliet All images sources from www.commons.wikimedia.org ​ www.pmt.education Juliet Capulet INTRODUCTION Juliet is the female protagonist of the play. She makes ​ ​ up the “...pair of star-crossed lovers…” the tragedy is ​ ​ ​ ​ centred around. Although Juliet is only 13, Capulet arranges her ​ marriage to Paris in the first scene she is mentioned. ​ Thus, Shakespeare presents her as an object of desire ​ whose only function is to be married. Although she is seen in such a reductive way, the character displays ​ ​ ​ complexity and maturity which contrasts with her ​ ​ ​ ​ young age. The protagonist can be perceived as an anomaly in the ​ ​ ​ play, as she is the only character who attempts to reject the societal pressures she faces: she insists on ​ ​ ​ marrying for love and takes action against her circumstances. Juliet becomes the catalyst that ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ causes the metamorphosis of Romeo from a Petrarchan lover to a Shakespearan lover. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Ultimately, the two lovers meet a tragic end, but Juliet’s action at the end of the play signifies the ​ ​ lengths to which the character is able to go in order to assert her freedom. ​ ​ CHARACTER IN CONTEXT The Nurse Juliet’s close relationship with her Nurse directly contrasts with how distant she is with her mother. This reflects how many upper-class mothers did not raise their own children. Instead, the Nurse carries out the role of the traditional mother; she gives Juliet advice, looks after her and even ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ elaborates that she breastfed Juliet. This can be seen in the quote, “For I had then laid ​ wormwood to my dug,” outlining how Juliet’s relationship with the Nurse is more naturally ​ ​ maternal than with Lady Capulet.

As the scene opens, Mercutio is in the a public square with Benvolio and some servants when Tybalt and his friends arrive. An argument starts, and then the newly-married Romeo arrives. Act III. Scene 1 [Tybalt under Romeo’s arm stabs Mercutio, and flies with his followers.] Mercutio: Tybalt: I am hurt. Romeo, the hate I bear thee can afford A plague o’ both your houses! I am sped.

    Background Notes William Shakespeare and Romeo and Juliet Shakespeare: A brief biography • Shakespeare was born on April 23, 1564 in Stratford-on-Avon, England to an upper/ middle class family. Shakespeare: A brief biography • He learned Latin and Greek history in his grammar school as a child. This would explain the Latin and Greek references in his works. • There is not evidence that Shakespeare continued his schooling after elementary school. Shakespeare: A Brief Biography In 1582 at the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway who was 26. She was pregnant before they were married. Shakespeare: A Brief Biography • After a few years of marriage, Shakespeare left Stratford-on-Avon and his family for London to pursue his career in acting and writing. Shakespeare: A Brief Biography • Shakespeare wrote and acted with The Lord Chamberlain’s Men. This was an acting troupe that would perform during Shakespeare’s time. Shakespeare: A Brief Biography • It is believed that Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616. • In his will, Shakespeare left his daughters the majority of his wealth and possessions. He left his wife his “second best bed”. Shakespeare: A Brief Biography • The inscription on his tomb states: "Good friend for Jesus sake forbeare, To dig the dust enclosed here. Blessed be the man that spares these stones, And cursed be he that moves my bones.” Shakespeare wrote this because in his time, old bodies were dug up and burned to make room for new burials. Shakespeare despised this treatment of bodies, so he wrote this. Romeo and Juliet and Elizabethan Theater • Shakespeare did not create the story of Romeo and Juliet.
