Speeches where characters believe they are alone are soliloquies. Shakespeare used soliloquies to contrast characters' solitary speech vs. what they say around others. In the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet, Juliet is not at first aware that Romeo is listening to her. JULIET'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;Thou art thyself, though not a Montague. What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot, Nor arm, nor face, nor any other partBelonging to a man. O, be some other name!What's in a name? that which we call a roseBy any other name would smell as sweet;So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd, Retain that dear perfection which he owesWithout that title. Romeo, doff thy name, And for that name which is no part of theeTake all myself.
why did Shakespeare have Juliet speak using a soliloquy?
A)So that both the audience and Romeo could learn her true feelings.
B)So that she could feel angry once she realized Romeo was listening.
C)So that Shakespeare could introduce the saying "What's in a name..."
D)So that she would look foolish once she realized Romeo was listening.
