In Romeo and Juliet why is Juliet important?

because juliet is the love of romeo's life and the daughter of his family's sworn enemy.

No Juliet is a spy for Ben!!! What ever Ben Says Juliet does! Juliet wants Jack to trust her but Jack is smarter to know that she is fake!

Juliet's attitude toward Paris is not a friendly one. The quote you've mentioned shows that she does not approve of him thinking of her as his lady or his wife because she is not (yet) married to him despite her father's promises and arrangements made. Probably she does not outright hate him but feels a resentment that he would simply assume her to be overjoyed at the arrangement of marriage she had no part in making.

Romance has several different ideaologies behind it ie, Juliet on her balcony or a candle lit dinner with soft music in the background or serenading a girl (with a boom box in my time). It could mean a nice hay ride or horse drawn carriage. Writing poetry specifically for a girl.

Ok, I will help - but I will not give you the answers, that's not help.  If the Shakespearean-era language is difficult to get through, I suggest checking out a noted version of the play (Penguin Publishing has some excellent, quite affordable paperback versions) to help you understand who's saying what.  You might also try to find a full production of the play or a video version. (Zeffirelli's is visually stunning, but leaves out a lot of the by-play.  The newer version with DiCaprio & what's-her-name is visually odd, but leaves in more of the dialogue.  Most libraries also will have the odd BBC or Canadian production in their media library, and these are usually complete dialogue without anything too extreme in the way of visuals.)\n\n1. Think about social conventions of the time - Juliet is a young, unmarried but highly marriageable woman.  Also, think about any parents' natural reaction if they were to find their daughter in the company of any young man - especially if that young man was a member of a family you hated.\n\n2 & 4 are very closely related.  Think about modern divorce rates in marriages that are made quickly - then think about a society where annulments were possible but difficult and divorce as such was not really an option.\n\n3. Reread the scene, and think about Juliet being a young woman besotted, while the nurse is somewhat of a doddering old lady who tends to ramble on and on and on (and some of her lines do amount to Elizabethan toilet humour, by the way).\n\n5.  Think about the purpose of a foil.  Mercutio & Nurse are both close to the main characters, and marginally involved/possibly condoning their behaviours.  Pick out a few key points in the act and you should have no trouble getting 8 to 10 sentences.  For example, do these characters encourage this lovelorn behaviour between the main characters? How? Why?\n\nPersonal sidenote/pet peeve about this play: Why does everyone perform the Queen Mab speech as though it's a huge dramatic foreshadowing?  It is, even the densest people grasp that after seeing the play once - but keep in mind Mercutio's playful, sarcastic character - why on earth would he of a sudden burst into this long prophetic rant?  I've gotten a few people to read it as a mocking, sarcastic sort of monologue, and have been far more pleased with it...

I think what Shakespeare was trying to do, was to give the viewer/reader a sense of the characters in the play. Macduff plays an important part later on the play, so it's important that we see the character closely. The play is not ALL based on Macbeth, in fact it's about Macbeth's rise and fall, which occurs by the influence of other characters in the play such as his wife, Lady Macbeth, the 3 witches including Hecate..even King Duncan influences him into believing he can be king himself (complicated story). Look i can write a whole essay as to why Macduff is important in the play...have you read the whole play? do you know the end? maybe if you read the end then you'd know why introducing Macduff's character is important..so sorry for the long answer =/

Until now? Are you saying it's no longer going to be popular? Well anyway, the answer is simple, everyone girl loves a love story, every guy loves action, like sword fights, and everyone loves drama! So Romeo and Juliet will always be popular because it's relatable to a point, because it's the kind of story that can happen to a point in real life. I.E. families fighting, but the children fall in love with each other but can't be together, I'm sure it isn't as extreme, but it happens. Plus this story was definately ahead of it's time, always will be. Sorry for the long response.

Just finished reading this for 9th grade English. Juliet is a brat from beginning to end of the story.  She does not love Romeo but is infatuated with him.  She threatens suicide repeatedly whenever things are not going her way.  I don't think she changes much, she's more committed to herself than to him.  She only commits suicide at the end of the story because of the guilt she feels rather than because she wants to be with him or because she is devastated.

Nice. Juliet was the sense to Romeo's romance. I like.

Because she is teasing Juliet and does not directly tell her what Romeo said, this is why Juliet calls her cruel.\n\nShe is not actually cruel.

opposites attract and love is blind. no matter the drama between the capulets and the montagues, romeo and juliet found each other regardless.

I think the way that society has portrayed it is completely stupid. Romeo and Juliet were young kids but everyone seems to think that they were grown.

i suggest not doing romeo or juliet b/c everyones going to do them and your teachers going to read a million of them and if she gets to yours and its different- thats a good thing. i suggest friar lawerence. he was crutial to their secret marriage, juliets fake suicide, he was the only one who knew that juliet wasnt really dead, he was the first to find thr dead romeo, told juliet what had happened, etc. without him the none of that twisted romantic tragedy could have happened.\n\noh- and a good thesis sentence could be: The most influential character in The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, without whom the plot would be undone, is Friar Lawerence. \nbtw:The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is the official title.
