The relationship between Juliet and her father is kind of rough because when her father says she has to marry Paris she refuses and then her father’s throws a wobbly and says she is a bag, by saying this Juliet’s father refers to Juliet as a bag meaning she is his possession and a burden to him and weighs him down. The Elizabethan audience would agree with her father because in the 1500’S it was normal for middle class and upper class people to arrange marriages for their daughters because they would gain something from marrying, whether it is more money, crops or a huge plot of land. The modern audience would agree with Juliet because women’s rights have moved on and arranged marriages don’t normally happen in some countries whereas in Islam arranged marriages are normal and the Muslim family will arrange a marriage for their daughter so they can make more money.
