850 - 900 words
Answers
Answer:
These both are characters from Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice.
Bassanio is generally reckless in regard to his expenditure, whether its his money or it belongs to someone else.
In the beginning we develop a distaste towards this character who is largely selfish and extravagant. He wanted to marry Portia for her money. However, later on that changes as he turns into a charming enthusiast whose love continues to grow for Portia beyond her financial means.
His character has some sort of immaturity as well. But he is deeply caring about his friend Antonio. He is willing to offer himself in exchange for his friends debts of all sorts to Shylock. His love and care for his friend is an admirable trait in this character.
Antonio on the other hand is loved by all who he meets. He is a middle-aged bachelor who is a merchant by trade. All of his financial interests are stuck in overseas shipments.
He is a kind, generous and a confident man. He is also honest by nature; these traits lead him to be loved by all. However, he has some issues of religious intolerance present in him.
It is he who helps Bassanio to go to Belmont and win the hand of Portia there. His pound of flesh bond leads directly to the trial scene where Portia comes to his rescue.
And he too is a great friend who is willing to die for Bassiano.
