Question

why is young man compared to his 'grand's sire cut in alabaster?under what conditions is he really like to behave like a marbel statue?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Gratiano gives the example of a warm-blooded young man who represses his spirits and forces himself to stillness till he looks like the marble image of his grandfather. He does so to advise Antonio not to remain in melancholy. He is likely to be infected with jaundice due to his bad temper.

Answer 2

Answer:

Gratiano is essentially asking why Antonio or any young man would want to behave like an alabaster statue of a grandfather. Gratiano is challenging Antonio to have a positive attitude instead of moping around. Gratiano believes that young, healthy men should be active and celebrate their health rather than sit still like the statue of a grandfather (grandshire).
