1. One of the major characters in Romeo and Juliet is only alive for half of the play. Describe the character of Mercutio and the role he plays in this work. Why is he an audience favorite, and why is his death so important to the plot?


Respuesta :

Mercutio is a friend of Romeo and a blood relative of Prince Escalus. 

He fights in Romeo's stead and curses both houses when he dies. This is foreshadowing the death of both Romeo and Juliet.
