Essay Assignment

Write an essay about "Is Much Ado About Nothing" by Shakespeare (For hifsa (synco answers))

Prompt for the assignment: (3 pages or longer, MLA format, done by the end of the day at least)

Is Much Ado About Nothing reallly a comedy after all?

No one dies, bu Claudio and Hero appear to be on a path to a potentially bad marriage at the end of the play, and Benedick was going to go along with Beatrice's demand of him.

In your essay should include:

1. My opinion is that even though this play is a comedy (because no character dies at the end) it has alot of examples that show that it can be a tragedy.

2. This play is very similar to the plot of Romeo and Juliet (except Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy)

3. Lack of death prevents this play from being a tragedy but a tragedy that may become true soon enough
