6. The main source of conflict is the one of the Montague
and Capulet families and their hatred for each other. It
involves Juliet for she is a Capulet and her love Romeo for
he is a Montague.

7. EXPOSITION- Paris pleads with the Capulet family to
marry Juliet, with Juliet’s mother come to tell Juliet
about Paris and how lovely he is.
THE EXCITING FORCE- Romeo first spotting Juliet at the
masked party and he immediately falls in love with her
and Romeo touches her hand and they are both in love.

8. CONFLICT- Juliet finds out who Romeo is from the
nurse and finds out that her love is a “loathed enemy,”
in the Montague family.
TURNING POINT-Romeo hides beneath Juliet's balcony
and Juliet quotes “Oh Romeo! Romeo wherefore art
thou Romeo. Romeo interrupts her by saying he loves
her.

be dead, Romeo arrives at her tomb and finds her
dead.

9. RESOLUTION- Romeo takes a cup of poison, drinks it
and dies kissing Juliet.
UNTANGLING-Juliet awakes and finds Romeo dead with
the cup of poison would kill herself aswel. Friar

10. The Capulet's and Montague's find out the story. The
two families make up and the Prince ends the play
with the quote,” For never was a story of more woe,
than this of Juliet and her love Romeo.

12. The relationship between Juliet and her Nurse is extremely strong and this is
show throughout the play. They have been close ever since Juliet was born as the
nurse has almost overtaken Lady Capulet's job as the mother of Juliet. It is
obviously shown that their relationship is strong because the nurse is the only
one who Juliet tells about Romeo and their secret marriage. Juliet is comfortable
with and around the nurse and at ease when talking to her, this would mean if
Juliet had any queries she would go to the nurse for advice and help. Juliet’s
respect for the nurse had disappeared in Act 3 Scene 5, when Lord and Lady
Capulet was forcing Juliet to marry Paris and she went to the nurse and she
simply told her “I think it best you married with the county. O, he’s a lovely
gentleman. Romeo’s a dish clout to him.” Juliet did not want to hear that and
from that point on in the play, Juliet and the nurse’s strong bond was gone.

13.  Juliet respects her mother and wants to live up to her
expectations, but finds she must rebel in order to keep the
sanctity of her secret marriage with Romeo. Juliet behaves in a
way that proves she is deeply in love with Romeo not only
when she's around Romeo but also when she's with the nurse.
 Juliet is motivated by love at first sight with Romeo, and even
when she found out that he is a Montague. With a quote, ”My
only love is that of my only enemy.” She is mainly motivated by
the nurse who is also her best friend and mainly her mother
seeming she nursed Juliet when she was a baby.

14. Juliet is influence by her parents in them forcing her
to marry Paris. She influences Romeo in love at first
sight, and she is influenced by him in the same way.
She is deeply affected by the death of her cousin
Tybalt who was killed by Romeo, she is also the main
driving force behind the conflict between Romeo and
Tybalt, then she is also the victim of losing her cousin.

15. By the end Juliet has matured in many ways and both
learnt and gained knowledge that the Capulet and
Montague families can be together and get along. But
she had lost both her lovers life in Romeo and her
own life.

16. Beginning- “My love is that of my only enemy,” Juliet.
When she was motivated by Romeos love.
