Essay Topic

D) Mercutio is often considered one of Shakespeare's best characters and yet he is killed quite early in this play. Discuss how the relationships Mercutio is in influence his behaviour/choices, and discuss WHY you think so many people (including me) find him interesting and pleasure to watch/read. What do you think Shakespeare would say about his character Mercutio? Would he like him? Would he think he was brave, honourable, immature, ignorant, or wise?

My decision to choose this topic was influenced by my part in interpreting Mercutio's lines in Romeo & Juliet. I took a liking to his personality as I feel it reflects my own. Making personal connections and linking his behaviour to modern people, I will provide an accurate explanation as to why Mercutio is so liked among readers of Romeo & Juliet.

Argument #1) Mercutio's outlook on life and how he adapts to situations

Argument #2) Shakespeare's and the readers opinion on Mercutio

Argument #3) Mercutio's personality when a relationship is being affected.
