Lady Capulet

• thou know'st my daughters of pretty age - conflict 


  uses personal pronoun 'my' showing she has a degree of fondness for daughter - maternal instinct to protect her, pronoun also connotes possession showing she ultimately possesses power over Juliet
• how long (it is) until lammastide? - conflict 


  tone is impatient demonstrating she is anxiously anticipating moment she can marry her daughter off to a socially advantageous partner
• younger than you/here in Verona (...) are made already mothers - conflict


  shows pressure she feels to conform to societal norms - almost sounds as though she feels she has to give validation as to why she is marrying off her daughter as if she feel guilty about it
• shall happily make thee a joyful bride - conflict


  'joyful' demonstrates awareness Juliet may not be hoppy about it so tries to entice Juliet as if she is selling Paris to her
• nurse, where is my daughter? - submissive wife


  seems authoritative with imperative 'where' but is simply saying it as she is addressing someone of lower status - 2nd in power to husband
• marry, my child- submissive wife


  furthering husbands agendas by trying to persuade Juliet to marry which is how she is shown to be a tool used by her husband - no independence of opinion with him - possessive pronoun 'my' uses imperative which gives her power against daughter
• tell him so yourself - submissive wife


  women considered inferior to men, men seen as leaders of household - Juliet's father takes lead in disciplining daughter
• I would the fool were married to her grave - submissive wife


  possibly could have some sympathy for daughter on feminine level yet sides with her husband as she doesn't have liberty - seemed authoritative in earlier scenes where she interacts with Juliet in scenes alone but when husband is present, she takes secondary role - exemplary aristocratic wife
• the sight of my death is a bell / that warns my old age to a sepulchre - regret


  use of simile to compare juliets death to a warning bell shows extreme guilt she feels - conflict no longer a conflict in her mind and daughters death proven to her that love for Juliet ranks above any wish for her to be married - idea of 'bell' conjures imagery of time reminding us of how fleeting life us and how we should value it
• with outcry toward (the) monument - regret


  community grieves alongside lady capulet, makes death more tragic - aware the two belonged to prominent families but only after their death we can see how much they were really known - her guilt, by extension, would be intensified - daughters death marks moment of realisation for her, forced to realise minor nature of family feud and radical consequences of it
