  • How Shakespeare explore family relationships (Act 1 Scene 3 lines 80-100)
    • Lady Capulet and Juliet
      • formal and not close
      • Juliet - polite and obedient to mother
        • Follow mother's want for Juliet to marry Paris the way Lady Capulet did w/out love
          • "But no more deep will I endart mine eye /  Then your consent gives strenght to fly" Juliet
            • "eye" - appearance
              • Following her mother's view of love
        • Changes when she wants to marry Romeo
          • True love of Juliet and Romeo for potential family vs. Juliet's love for her existing Capulet family
          • Irony
      • Lady Capulet seems to have low value of Juliet's feelings
        • Lady Capulet has long speech about Paris but encourage Juliet to make a short speech about her whole feelings about this topi
          • "Speak briefly"
            • Conscience of time
              • Pressure of Juliet marrying Paris begins the imagery of time
                • Builds up during the play
                • Leads to Romeo arriving too early to the tomb and kills himself before Juliet awakens
    • Nurse and Juliet
      • Nurse - makes very crude humour
        • Although not biological family - close to Capulets
          • close to Juliet
            • more of a motherly figure to Juliet
              • Raised her up
        • "Women grow by men"
          • Power - women is not worthy without men
          • Pregnancy - family
    • Future family relationship of Juliet with Paris
      • Lady Capulet's way of persuading Juliet to marry Paris by giving her ideas of the benefits she will have
        • Wealth
        • Appearance
          • "Read o'er the volume of young Paris' face"
            • Book imagery
            • maybe how Lady Capulet and Lord Capulet's relationship is
