Transformation of Juliet
In William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, one of the main characters Juliet changes as the play progresses. In the beginning of the play, Juliet is a young girl who is very faithful and loyal to her family. After an encounter with Romeo, son of Montague she falls in love and encounters dramatic changes to her life.
In the beginning of the play The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet when Juliet is introduced, she is shown to be a young girl who is very faithful to her family, the Capulet's.

Nurse: "Madam", Juliet: "I come anon. But if thou meanst not well, I do beseech thee---" Nurse: "Madam!" (Act 2, Scene 2, ll 149-152). The nurse calls Juliet over and over until she finally came, unlike the...
