Who were Juliet's parents in Romeo and Juliet?

Juliet's parents are named Lord Capulet and Lady Capulet, whereas Romeo's parents are named Lord Montague and Lady Montague.I've read the play, and as far as I could tell, it never says their given names, but if you want to refer to them, call them the above names (their last names).


How does Lady Capulet respond to Lord Capulet's call for a sword?

A crutch, a crutch! Why call for a sword?


In what ways does Romeo express his emotions about Juliet when he spies her above?

You are of course referring to the famous balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet, Act II Scene 2. In this scene Romeo is lurking in the dark in the Capulet garden when he spots Juliet standing in her bedroom window. He will stand still while watching her and commenting on her appearance and his feelings about her in a voice only the audience can hear. At the same time she comments on her feelings about Romeo in a voice which Romeo can hear. A good actor will use all of his skills in playing the part of Romeo in this scene. His emotions are primarily expressed in the words he says, but the way he delivers them is also important, so the audience knows that he is sincere. Although this scene does not call for much by way of physical acting, the way the actor stands can also help convey his desire for and attraction to the girl on the balcony.


What is the name of the woman who looks after Juliet in romeo and Juliet?

The Nurse's real name may be Angelica.You can find this in... (Act 4, Scene 4)Capulet says "Look to the baked meats, good Angelica: Spare not for cost". There are two women on stage he could be addressing this to: one is the Nurse, the other (identified in Folio and all Quartos after the first as "Lady of the house" but in Q1 as "Mother") is generally accepted to be Lady Capulet. He could be addressing either of them. The nurse responds to his comment, but she could be interrupting as usual. It seems weird that Capulet should be telling either of these women to look after the baked meats--his wife is not a servant and the Nurse is not a cook, and in Scene 2 he said he was hiring "twenty cunning cooks" whose job this would be, one would think.On the other hand, here is Lady C asking the nurse to get her spices. It sounds like she is in charge of some portion of the cooking. The nurse responds that fruit is needed for the pastries but she is just a messenger: she says "They call for dates and quinces in the pastry." Someone else is in charge of cooking the pastries.If Lady C is the cook, then Capulet's remark is meant for her, and she is Angelica, not the Nurse. But the issue is certainly ambiguous.

Which of shakespheare's plays contains the phrase a rose by another name would smell as sweet?

Romeo and Juliet. When Juliet, who is a Capulet, finds out Romeo is a Montague, she is torn because of her feelings toward him, and the feelings her family has towards his family, or in this case, his name. She is saying the feelings she has shouldn't change just because she learned his last name. Everyone knows what a rose is and how it smells, but what if we called it something we know to be ugly and capable of hurting you, like a cactus? It would still be pretty and smell wonderful, making a name just that....a name.
