Mercutio In Romeo And Juliet
CHANGES:
At the beginning of the story, Mercutio was first introduced with Romeo and Benvolio. Mercutio was trying to be a really nice friend and tries to cheer up Romeo from his past relationships. There were no “end” to Mercutio’s character because he was killed in Act 3 Scene 1. But before he died, he was still very loyal to his friend. Until Act 3, Mercutio has always teased about Rosaline, but when it got to Act 3, he got mad. Mercutio was always a guy that can take jokes and laugh about things but in Act 3 Scene 1, he gets angered and starts to fight with Tybalt. That may also be the key turning point of his character because he just changes how he was always acting.
COLOR:
The best color to represent Mercutio is probably red because he is always thinking of protecting or helping his friend. Red can represent fury like how he really wanted to fight Tybalt. Red can also represent the friendship that he has with Romeo and that he doesn’t want Romeo to get hurt.
VIRTUES AND VICES:
Mercutio’s quality is his ability to be humorous which is shown in his soliloquy to Romeo and Benvolio in which he shows how he can fool around. Mercutio …show more content…
Mercutio is portrayed to have bawdy wisdom. However, deep down, he is caring and serious even though he jokes/fools around and picks unnecessary fights. He tries to protect Romeo and even as he is dying, he can still pun about himself and his fate. He brings out jokes to release tension in a situation and helps Romeo by pointing out his lovesickness of Rosaline. He tries to keep others entertained and laughing even when he is dying. The two images clash because not every character on scene will realize Mercutio’s true feelings and loyalty. They also correspond because Mercutio is funny and smart with his jokes and brings out the best in others. He paid the ultimate price for his actions, but was a good character
