Question

The camaraderie between the main male characters of the drama from Act 1 and 2 is quite evident. Substantiate your answer with suitable examples. (300-350 words)

Answer 1

Answer:

That Antonio and Bassanio are very good friends, becomes clear right from the initial scenes. Whatever slight doubt is there gets cleared by the end. Throughout the drama, the two friends are dearer than life to each other. Their love and trust for each other are evident at every stage of the drama. Each one of the two is ready to go to any extent to serve and help the other. It is visible that Bassanio is less a friend and more a brother to Antonio.
