Romeo And Juliet Cause And Effect

Nurse is the person Juliet trusts the most in her life. When Romeo and Juliet first meet, it is Nurse who tells Juliet who Romeo is. Nurse then successfully delivers several messages between Romeo and Juliet to arrange their secret marriage.

Mercutio is killed by Tybalt in a duel in the street. He gets into the duel with Tybalt after Tybalt insults Romeo and refuses to fight. After Mercutio dies, Romeo avenges him by killing Tybalt.

Mercutio taunted, “O calm, dishonorable, vile submission! Tybalt, you ratcatcher, will you walk?” The fight was started by Mercutio and his hot-headed nature. Because Mercutio picked the fight with Tybalt, he forced Romeo’s hand to fight with Tybalt and got Romeo exiled! Because of the exile, the Friar and Juliet had to make a plan to get the two lovers together. The plan, caused by the fight, ended up leading to the death of Romeo and Juliet. Again, Mercutio’s selfish actions managed to lead into the reason of the couple's’

While Lady Capulet is Juliet’s mother, the Nurse is the actual motherly figure in her life. Lady Capulet is concerned with what’s best for herself and Lord Capulet, while the Nurse cares for what Juliet really wants. Lady Capulet never had time to be there for Juliet as a child, and it was the Nurse who filled that role in. Lady Capulet becomes a vile character full of hatred, and one of the opposers to the protagonist, Romeo. The Nurse, on the other hand, listens to what Juliet has to say, and cares for her. The Nurse brings out the negative, ignorant traits in Lady Capulet, and Lady Capulet brings out the Nurse’s positive characteristics. As the main comedic character in the play, the Nurse’s role only accentuates Lady Capulet’s role that provides dramatic, intense scenes, such as with lines like “That is because the traitor murderer lives,” (Act Ⅲ, Scene Ⅴ) that provide the audience with theatrical

There are many characters that could be blamed for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet, mainly including their parents and the feud between their families. The nurse, who was Juliet’s most close and trusted friend, would deliver letters to Romeo and helped arrange Romeo and Juliet’s marriage. In Act 3; Scene 5, after Romeo was banished for killing Tybalt and avenging Mercutio’s murder, the nurse completely disregarded their marriage and proposed to Juliet that she should instead marry someone she is not in love with, the rich and noble Paris. The nurse later says that Romeo is a mere “dishclout” or dishcloth compared to the noble Paris.

Throughout the course of the play, the Nurse’s job is to play messenger and relay Juliet’s messages to Romeo or take messages sent by Romeo back to Juliet. Her role becomes evident during Act 2, Scene 4, when she says, “Pray you, sir, a word. And as I told you, my young lady bid me inquire you out. What she bade me say, I will keep to myself.” As being the two lovers’ means of interaction in broad daylight, it is the Nurse who makes the wedding a reality. The role of messenger is increasingly significant as the play progresses because with each message that Juliet entrusts to the Nurse, the harsher the betrayal becomes for Juliet in Act 3. Moreover, her efforts as messenger also allows Shakespeare to use the Nurse as a vector to foreshadow future events within the play. In the same scene, the Nurse recalls that Juliet said, “Doth not rosemary and Romeo begin both with a letter?” The foreshadowing allows Shakespeare to push the plot along by hint the direction of the tragedy. By comparing Romeo and rosemary, which is symbolic for lovers and death, Juliet is suggesting that she’ll take her love for Romeo to her death. And ironically, the Nurse has a role in Juliet’s death as

The Nurse is like a second mom to Juliet and is often helping her towards her problems . But her ignorant actions led to the death of Juliet. The Nurse helped Juliet secretly marry Romeo but later tells her to marry Paris later on. Juliet asked the Nurse what should she do after Lord Capulet ordered her to marry Paris, The Nurse’s advice was, “ I think it best you married with the county./Oh, he’s a lovely gentleman./Romeo’s a dishclout to him.”(3.5 218-220) This quote shows how untrustworthy the Nurse is even though she helped Juliet marry Romeo. As a good God-Teacher she should have been certain of the decision she made first. This action by the Nurse caused Juliet to ask Friar Lawrence for advice which led to even worse consequences. The Nurse is fully aware of the feud between the Montagues and Capulets but still helps with the marriage of Romeo and Juliet. Juliet had asked the Nurse to find Romeo and ask for the wedding plan and she came back to report to Juliet that,”Then hie you hence to Friar Lawrence’s cell./There stays a husband to make you a wife./Now comes the wanton blood up in your cheeks./They’ll be in scarlet straight at any news./Hie you to church.”(2.5 61-65) This action by the Nurse indicates that the Nurse can not make wise decisions and did not think about all the consequences that could happen from Juliet

After this we know how the play will end. The Nurse does a better job mentoring Juliet I think. She does what Juliet wants her to if she feels it is a good idea and helps Romeo and Juliet communicate. The Nurse does not fully understand how Juliet feels about Romeo.

However, Mercutio ignores him, and Romeo tries to grab him and pull him away, but then Tybalt stabs Mercutio, leading him to his death. Then Romeo begins think when will all of the fighting

The Nurse has taken care of Juliet since Juliet was born. She has influenced Juliet and acted as her mother more than Lady Capulet has. Juliet trusted Nurse enough to tell her of Romeo. The Nurse also encourages Juliet to continue loving Romeo, and even helps her to make the wedding arrangements. She delivers a message from Juliet to Romeo about their plans to get married. When the Nurse betrays Juliet by telling her that she should marry Paris,

The nurse supports Juliet in her decision to be with Romeo. She is only one of a few people that knows about Romeo and Juliet and is willing to help them. Juliet was raised by the nurse who was her wet nurse when she was growing up. Their relationship is playful and caring throughout the beginning of the play.

From the very beginning of the play, the audience is introduced to the motherly influence the Nurse has on Juliet through their deep connection and affection. Juliet’s Nurse has raised her since she was a baby and has also helped her to grow into the person she has become. Juliet confides in her Nurse about her interest in Romeo after meeting him. Her Nurse caring for Juliet unconditionally, went to seek and found Romeo and explains to him that his, “Young lady bid [her] enquire you out. What she bade me say, I will keep to myself” (2.4.142-143). The Nurse, seeking, locating and talking to Romeo on Juliet’s behalf, enables and encourages Juliet to continue pursuing Romeo romantically. When the Nurse returns to Juliet and explains the arrangement

Romeo and his friends are making dirty jokes and teasing the Nurse. In the film, they harass the nurse much more than in the book. This goes to show how little respect upper class men had for servants. Romeo tells Nurse the details about the wedding and Nurse proceeds back to the Capulet mansion. In both the book and film, Juliet is restlessly waiting for Nurse’s return.

This is a reason for showing the increased characterization and the change in the love between Romeo and Juliet and leads to a lot of minor changes in the plot. The Nurse was a caregiver in the play as well as the movie she advised and counseled Juliet and was sent on Errands. Juliet used most of the nurses’ advices and applied them to her love with Romeo. Friar Lawrence was the Friar in the play and the movie he as well, he counseled and advised but with Romeo.

The Nurse will do anything for Juliet to make her happy, like a mother would. If Juliet’s mother knew Juliet’s love interest,  she would be mad because Romeo is a Montague. When the Nurse goes to visit Romeo at Friar Lawrence's cell about the marriage, Friar tells her the plan about
