“Nurse where is my daughter, call her forth to me” Flashcards

This suggests that Lady Capuler is addressing the nurse instead of directly calling for Juliet which shows how she is unaware of her location or how she spends her free time.

The use of the noun “daughter” illustrates a formal communication style as it emphasises how she lacks a maternal bond with her daughter.and uses the nurse in order to indirectly speak to juliet.

The absence of any indication of concern towards Juliet’s wellbeing shows a lack of emotional engagement and indicates how their relationship may be entirely superficial, devoid of love and warmth

This quote is effective as it creates a direct contrast between Lady capulet and the nurse who addresses her with more loving motherly phrases such as “lamb” and is used by shakespeare to comment on the difference in their relationships and how if Lady Capulet was more attentive to juliet’s needs and wants then her death could of been avoided as this distance may be the cause of Juliet’s gradual rebellion.
