What happened to the nurse's husband and daughter in romeo and Juliet?

She speaks ill of Romeo because he killed Tybalt, who was her cousin. The nurse also counsels Juliet to commit bigamy with Paris which causes Juliet to lose faith in the nurse.


How does the nurse offending Juliet add to the tragedy of events that follow?

The nurse tells juliet to forget Romeo and marry lord Paris. Obviously this is unacceptable to Juliet so she brushes the Nurse off. It's a problem because Romeo and Juliet have few enough people they can trust, and they don't need to lose the confidence of those few.


What is Juliets state of mind when she waits for the nurse in act 2 scene 5?

In Act II, Scene 5, Juliet is impatient for the nurse to arrive to tell her what arrangements Romeo has made for their wedding. In Act III, Scene 2, Juliet is impatient for Romeo to arrive so they can lose their virginities. The Nurse is to bring the rope ladder for Romeo to climb up to Juliet's bedroom window, which is why, when the nurse arrives, she says: "What hast thou there? The cords that Romeo bid thee fetch?" But Juliet expresses no impatience for the rope ladder, only for Night to come and "bring me my Romeo."


Who was with Juliet in her bedroom in act 4?

It depends on what scene of the play you are talking about. Sometimes it's the Nurse. After her supposed death both her parents and the Nurse are with her. On her wedding night Romeo is with her as they "lose . . . a pair of stainless maidenhoods."

What is Romeo's fear?

Romeo's fear in Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet" is that he will lose Juliet, either through death or some other circumstance that will keep them apart. He worries about being separated from her and not being able to be with the one he loves.

How is the nurse behaving that is frustrating to Juliet in act 2 scene 5?

In Act II Scene 5, the nurse is returning from her meeting with Romeo the morning after the balcony scene. At this meeting she was to discuss with Romeo the question of a wedding for Romeo and Juliet. Juliet is anxious; what a guy might think and say in the dark of the night under the influence of the moonlight might look different in the cold light of day. "At lovers' perjuries, they say, Jove laughs." She wants to know what the nurse has found out. The nurse is two and one half hours late. When she does show up, she talks about everything and anything except what Romeo has said to her. She says her bones ache, she says she is out of breath, she asks if Juliet has had something to eat, she asks where Mrs. Capulet is. And when Juliet starts to lose it from the frustration, the nurse says huffily that if Juliet is going to be that way she can run her own errands! It's a great scene and very funny if played well.

How did Romeo and Juliet impact the world of literature?

Romeo and Juliet show their undying love time and time again throughout the play. Their love was recognized, first, on the infamous balcony scene. Romeo sneaks to Juliet's window, and they profess their love for one another (Act II, Scene 2). This scene initially gives the reader a concept of how the two feel towards each other. This dialogue would not be enough to represent the amazing love the couple felt. The words must be accompanied by actions. The first act was Juliet drinking the sleeping potion, Romeo, Romeo, Romeo, I drink to thee (Act IV, Scene 4, Line 58). This took a great deal of motivation in order to drive Juliet to such extremes to be with her lover. Her aching heart provided this motivation. Romeo finds his love lying motionless in the tomb. Now it is time for him to prove his love for Juliet, as she has done for him. Romeo finds a deadly poison and proceeds to take his life with this drink. As he dies, he says thus with a kiss I die (Act V, Scene 3, Line 120). Juliet quickly awakens to find her love that she risked her life for to be dead. Her soul perhaps overwhelms her common sense. She draws a sword and takes her own life beside her fallen husband. Love is the most important aspect of Romeo and Juliet (Examples of Love in Romeo and Juliet). Shakespeare's understanding of this emotion allowed him to set the tone for many romantic and tragic playwrights to follow. His impact on our world can never be measured, but the play Romeo and Juliet was, no doubt, a revolutionary play in the history of literature.


Is there oxymoron in act 3 of Romeo and Juliet?

Yes, there is an oxymoron in act 3 of Romeo and Juliet. It is found in Mercutio's line, "Parting is such sweet sorrow." This phrase combines contradictory terms (sweet and sorrow) to express the bittersweet feeling of saying goodbye.


How did Juliet feel?

After the marriage, but before the wedding night, at the beginning of Act 3 Scene 2, Juliet is full of anticipation of the sexual fulfilment of her marriage. "Come civil night, thou sober-suited matron, all in black and learn me how to lose a winning match, played for a pair of stainless maidenhoods." She is looking forward to losing her virginity (as Romeo will lose his) but "winning" by making their marriage complete. "O I have bought the mansion of a love, but not possessed it." She has the name of wife, but not yet the reality.


What does Juliet mean by I'll to my wedding-bed and death not Romeo take my maidenhead?

At the time Juliet says this (Act 3 Scene 2), she is still a virgin, and has just learned that Romeo has been banished to Mantua, before having had the chance to consummate his marriage with her. She says that she will go to her bed (which is her wedding-bed since she was just married). If Romeo cannot take her virginity, she says, she would sooner die. Death here is personified as another husband she will lose her virginity to by dying.
