Lady Capulet and the Nurse foil (with Juliet)
Shakespeare presents Lady Capulet as distant and cold to Juliet however the Nurse has a
tender and motherly relationship
...
However
when Juliet speaks with her mother, she seems formal and obedient ‘ Madam, I am here,
what is your will’
...
There is a strong
contrast between the Nurse and Lady Capulet’s attitudes to Juliet as the Nurse encourages
her to make her own decisions whereas her mother influences her into agreeing to enter into
an arranged marriage
...
In Capulet's extreme bouts of temper when Juliet refuses to marry Paris Lady capulet
remains unmoved by her daughter's cries for help and the the Nurse is the person that
stands up for her
...
It is only after Juliet’s death that we see the
love that her mother has for her “O me, O me, my child, my only life!”
