Class Work
As a class, we also came up with the following list in answer to Question 2:
1. Jealousy - Don John is jealous of Claudio and all the attention he was receiving. There was evidence of jealousy between Don John and his brother Don Pedro (Don John is jealous of the respect and admiration, etc that Don Pedro receives because of his position).
2. Heartbreak - Hero feels heartbroken when Claudio rejects her and accuses her of being unfaithful. Claudio also feels heartbreak when he is led to believe that Hero has betrayed him and also when he finds out she is 'dead' and he realises that she was pure.
3. Anger - The supposed betrayal of Claudio (by Hero) demonstrates that many characters display anger. Claudio is angry, Leonato is angry, Beatrice becomes angered. As well as this, Don John appears to be an angry character throughout the play.
4. Love - Throughout the play, the story line is focused on the love of two separate couples: Hero and Claudio and Benedict and Beatrice. Hence, love is one of the central themes in the play.
