 Now let's discuss the character of Lunato. He is the Duke of Messina and he's the man who invites Benedict, Claudio and Dom Pedro to his home and of course it's because of this invitation that Claudio falls for his daughter Hero. Now he is presented as a very protective father and also a very caring uncle even if he does support the patriarchal structure at the time, patriarchy being a society that's controlled by men in the sense that he does also get a little bit tired and exasperated by Beatrice's strong-headed nature. So on the one hand, he kind of tells Beatrice off, he tells her, you know, the attitude you're never going to marry anybody, so he does try to help her find love and ultimately this is how she manages for another Benedict. However, when he does realise that Hero, when he falsely believes that accusations against Hero for not being a virgin, he also is really horrified about this and he asks for a dagger to kill himself because death really is only thing that can cover up his shame. And even when Hero pretends to die, he is kind of happy when she, you know, falls and she faints because he wants that, it's so shameful to consider that his daughter might actually not be a virgin, okay? And of course by the end, he's presented as also very honourable and forgiving of Claudio when he realises that his daughter, you know, these were all very force slanderous things said against her and he decides that Claudio can still have Hero's hand in marriage. Now, as you see behind me, I've prepared key quotations to remember for his character, particularly if you're writing about him or other key characters in the play as part of your coursework or exam, so let's get started with the quotations and the word-level analysis you need to do for Leonardo's character. Now, the first quotation is when he is showing that he's exasperated by Beatrice, he says, by my trothines, that will never get via husband. So here's basically saying, Beatrice, if you keep on being so headstrong, you'll never get married, okay? And of course that was seen as something that was really important during that time for women to have to be passive. And of course, Beatrice isn't. Now, the word-level analysis here you want to do is the literation of T in troth, vow and thee. This shows that Leonardo is being very emphatic when he's speaking. The second quotation to bear in mind with his character is when he realises or when it's revealed during Claudio and Heria's wedding that Heria might not have been faithful and Claudio is denouncing her and he's so horrified and mortified. He wants to be killed, he wants to die because he asks, hath no man's dagger here a point for me? And this is a rhetorical question, so that's one of the key things to point out. Now here, of course, what this is showing is how highly a woman's virginity was seen as and, you know, a woman not being chased was seen as tantamount to her social death and so he sees this as so shameful. Also, the other word-level analysis you want to do is the essence of A in hath, man and dagger. In addition, within this same scene, he literally says to his daughter, death is the fairest cover for her shame. He, you know, when she faints, he says, oh, death is even better to cover this than, you know, her living and me having to know that my daughter has basically had sex outside of marriage. You can't believe it, okay? Now here, of course, what this is showing is he has very strong patriarchal views about women's role in society. Women are supposed to be virgins. Whilst men can run around and sleep with all these people, for example, Benedict being a bachelor, he's able to do that. However, if Harrow, God forbid, she sleeps with the man, then that is something so shameful that death is really the best cover for that. Okay? Now here, you want to talk about this notion of this metaphor, this metaphoric language, death being a cover, a way of kind of changing and removing and averting people's gaze from Harrow in order to maybe save her reputation. If she dies, then that's really the only way that her reputation can maybe somewhat be restored. Now, the other quotation for Leonardo's character is when he states, within the same scene, do not live hero, do not open our eyes. And of course, her hero has fainted and he's saying, oh, you know, don't live, stay dead, right? Because of course, he doesn't want her to revive and then, you know, have a renewed sense of shame that he has this living daughter who is not a virgin. Now, the word love analysis you want to do here is the repetition of do not, where he's very emphatic, Leonardo, and also the assonance of E in live hero, oh, thine and eyes. Now, the final quotation, of course, this is when he realizes that his daughter is innocent and he asks, this is one of the main accomplices of Don John, he asks him, are thou the slave that with thy breath has killed my innocent child? Okay, so this is a question, it's not a rhetorical question, it's an actual question. And he's saying, you know, are you one of the people he plotted with Don John? And of course, this is when he realizes that Don John is the person who is at the center of all of these allegations and he realizes that his daughter is actually still a virgin, she's chaste, she's innocent. Okay, so of course, here we can see that he's very angry, but ultimately he forgives Claudio and still lets him marry his daughter because he realizes that it's not Claudio's fault that he believed that, he was also deceived, okay? Now, of course, this is a question and the word of the analysis you can do with this quotation is the alliteration of tea, hair, to show that he's really angered to realize that somebody would tarnish his daughter's reputation. So that's it, when it comes to Leonardo's character, of course, he's one of the key characters within the place that do make sure you try to pay attention to some of these quotations and use them and incorporate them in your writing. Thank you so much for listening.
