Imagine a scene from a classic play, with a setting that reflects the essence of dramatic irony and tension. The setting includes a vibrantly lit, richly furnished room from a nobleman's house in the Shakespearean era, complete with decorative tapestries and intricate wooden furniture. In one part of the room, a middle-aged, Caucasian man in Elizabethan attire is gesturing animatedly, a look of determination on his face as he plans for a festive occasion. In another part of the room, visual elements hinting towards a deceptive calm, such as a lone candle burning steadily or a 'prepared' wedding dress. The overall aura exhibits hopeful planning but also carries an underlying sense of impending doom.

Read Capulet's speech from Act IV, Scene 2, as he plans for the wedding:

Tush, I will stir about,
And all things shall be well, I warrant thee, wife.
Go thou to Juliet, help to deck up her.
I’ll not to bed tonight. Let me alone.
I’ll play the housewife for this once.
—What, ho?
They are all forth?—Well, I will walk myself
To County Paris, to prepare him up
Against tomorrow. My heart is wondrous light
Since this same wayward girl is so reclaimed.

@Arcturus

I dont even have those answers lol

Which one is right? She marked B and D..

I it says he wants her to marry the dude but she does not want to marry the dude how ironic is that her dad really wants her to but she doesn't so I'm pretty sure that's irony

b. Readers know that Juliet has no plans to marry Paris

This example of dramatic irony creates tension because the readers are aware of Juliet's true intentions and feelings, while Capulet remains oblivious. Capulet believes that Juliet is obedient and willing to marry Paris, so he plans for the wedding and expresses his excitement and relief. However, the readers are aware that Juliet is actually opposed to the marriage and has already made plans to avoid it. This creates tension because there is a sense of impending conflict and potential disaster as Juliet's secret plans may be revealed and Capulet's expectations may be shattered. The readers are left wondering how the situation will unfold and if Capulet will eventually discover Juliet's true feelings.

I mean B and C

What is the answer Julie

Right.
