A: He is describing Benvolio as someone who loves to fight, but we know from the verybeginning of the play that Benvolio loves to keep the peace and tries to avoid conflictbecause he tried to break up the fight between the servants.…
William Shakespeare is very intentional about character choices and their personalities. Each character plays an important role in setting the tragedy in motion. For this essay, I have chosen to analyze Tybalt, the Friar, and Benvolio’s personalities and explain how they contributed to the tragedies.…
Romeo Bonino: Romeo is artistic and free-spirited. Although many do not approve of him and what he does, he still does what he loves and doesn't let anything stop him.…
Firstly, Benvolio serves as a foil to Tybalt. To begin with, Tybalt wanted to start a fight, but Benvolio tried to stop it. The following quote shows how Tybalt wanted to fight but Benvolio didn’t “I do but keep the peace.”/ “ I hate the word as I hate hell,all Montagues, and thee. Have at thee,…
E) Tybalt - When Tybalt finds out Romeo is at their party, he rushes to Capulet. However, Capulet tells him to ignore him and Tybalt responds “It fits when such a villain is a guest. I’ll not endure him” (I.iiiii.84-85). Since Tybalt won’t ignore Romeo, it shows that he has love for his…
The character I have chosen is Friar Laurence he influences Romeo and Juliet by telling them the upcoming events in the near future.He has also married Romeo and Juliet despite Laurence being shocked by Romeo’s mishap with rosaline which did not give Romeo any affection, it also was an attempt to try to stop the civil Feud between the capulets and the Montagues. Friar also helps them both when Romeo is banished for killing Tybalt and as he runs to mantua Laurence helps Romeo and Juliet by making a potion to help fake Juliet's death but, as friar tries to send a letter to Romeo it doesn't go through because the villagers suspect it comes from a house that is infected. Friar is also too late to come to Romeo's suicide because Romeo thought he…
Tybalt Capulet is also the main villain in the play, he did evil things like killing Romeo friend Mercutio which made everything…
Everyone, the Man of the Party, the man we all know - er, knew.. - and loved, Sir Mercutio! The character that I chose from Romeo and Juliet is, of course, Mercutio. Mercutio is the friend of Romeo and Benvolio and the relative of Prince Escalus. He is extremely relevant to the plot, for Mercutio provoked Juliet's cousin, Tybalt, causing the two to fight. "Come, sir, your passado." (III.i.80). Romeo attempted to intervene which gave Tybalt leverage to reach around him and stab Mercutio. The death of his friend angered Romeo, who then fought and killed Tybalt, thus granting him exile to Mantua and leaving the rest of the plot to fall into place.…
Some aspects that support my decision are the nobility displayed throughout the novel, the code of honor and behavior, and the religion. Effi is a character to be admired because she lived with the guilt. Not just that, but she believed what her husband wanted (divorce & Annie) was the appropriate cause of action. Effi showed nobility because she knew she was not fit to bring up Annie. Even though she lied in the marriage, she owned up to her mistakes in the end, and that shows discipline. Innstetten shows social values by marrying younger to make his status look the part. With him being so formal, he attended his meetings and was always out of town versus in today’s society having a flexible work-life balance. When he found the three letters from Crampas, he did not call him on the phone to fix the solution, but instead they had a quick formal meeting, and he killed Crampas. That shows that if you committed wrong, or broke the rules, you certainly paid your debt to society. Nonetheless, he divorced Effi and got complete control over their daughter, Annie. Roswitha is a person I like to mention because she never switched her role against Effi despite the fact that she knew Effi had committed a mistake. She was absolutely loyal! A loyal servant! As for Effi’s parents, they wanted to blame themselves for the misshapen. Questioning whether she was too young or not and so…
Most people would not consider Friar Laurence to be the most important character, what with his many mistakes, sneaky plans, and abused power. But yet, if you look at all his mistakes, and plans combined, he was the one who ultimately ended the feud. Friar Laurence had the most power over both families, being a wise counselor and unbiased in the feud, so he was able to give advice to Romeo and Juliet, who followed blindly. Looking at his role in the play, you see that he was a powerful person, who, by making mistakes, and giving counsel, could stop the hate between two families. He was the one who ended the feud between the Montague and Capulet families, helping them reconcile.…
In the play, “Romeo and Juliet,” Friar Laurence is usually not considered a main character, although he has a large role in the story. He is also much different than most of characters in the play. Friar Laurence’s good character traits were greatly contrasted by the Capulets, the Montagues, and Juliet’s nurse. He is one of a kind.…
