The main characters of Much Ado About Nothing are Benedick, Beatrice, Claudio, Hero,.
Some of the minor characters are Antonio, Borachio,.
Dogberry, Leonato, Conrade, Ursula, and Margaret. The main characters in a play have.
may lines in which they speak to each other. However, the minor characters rarely have.
big speaking parts. The only way one can get to know the minor characters is through.
their short conversations with the major characters. .
Margaret is one of Hero's gentlewoman. Margaret was the women that.
Borachio was with when he called out Hero's name, to break up her engagement. She.
knew that it was not Hero who was seen with him, yet she never came forward with the.
truth. This made her look like a foolish women, and a bad friend. Then when Benedick.
asks her to help him figure out how to talk to Beatrice, Margaret flirts with him. She.
replied, "Will you then write me a sonnet in praise of my beauty?" This shows that on.
top of what she did to Hero, she was now being a bad friend to Beatrice. This is.
important because the fear of betrayal is a theme of this play. Margaret's actions prove.
that even good women can cheat, and it gives the others a bad reputation, like Benedick.
said. Benedick flirts back a little bit by telling her that she deserves the poem, but he still.
tries to stay on the subject of Beatrice. This shows that Benedick has still not fully fallen.
in love with Beatrice, and he will probably never fully change his ways. .
Claudio wants to marry Hero so naturally he would have to be nice to her.
father, Leonato. After he breaks up with Hero and calls her a whore, Leonato tells him.
and Don Pedro that Hero died. He yells at Claudio and tells him that it was all his fault.
Antonio said of his brother, "If he could right himself with quarreling, some of us would.
lie now." Claudio stills remains calm and does not disrespect Leonato. He tells him that.
he had never even thought of using his sword on him.
