Analysing Benvolio!

Welcome to the fifteenth video in my "'Romeo and Juliet' GCSE English Literature Revision" series! In this video, I analyse the character of Benvolio. I discuss who he is, his story-role, and what he might symbolise. I also analyse a bunch of quotations that relate to Benvolio, discussing how Shakespeare's use of language and writerly techniques helps to create certain impressions of him. Right at the end of this video, there's even a 'big question' for you to consider as well!

his name can determine his character, nominative determinism -> benevolent.

[@ayan7958]

@@avasosa1416 alright, aqa was nice for some reason

[@rosefairyy]

what do you think of mercutios line in act 3 scene 1 “thou art a hot a jack in thy mood as any in italy, and as soon mov'd to be moody, and as soon moody to be moved” (and the subsequent paragraph). mercutio's definitely exaggerating but i dont see the point of including this part if there isnt some truth to it. is benvolio a bit of a hypocrite then?
