Ques 6. Comment on the ending of the chapter “Two Gentlemen of Verona”. Assume another appropriate end to the story and pen it down in about 100 words |
|
Answer» Two Gentlemen of Verona doesn't appear to have much MERIT. The plot is UNLIKELY, even for a comedy; the motivations of the characters — Proteus, in particular — are so mercurial that an audience finds them hard to accept; and, finally, the ending seems absurdly unexpected, not so much through design, it seems, as through a desire to have done with the plot in a conventional and "satisfactorily" happy manner. SEVERAL Shakespearean critics take Shakespeare to task for his "uncertainty of metrical expression," but this matter seems to deal more with Shakespeare's poetics than with his sense of DRAMA and comedy. |
