Concluding, from the two characters that I have analysed, I personally think that Shakespeare uses both the social conventions of his time, and different devices in the text to portray a character as a hero, a villain, or plainly natural.With all said, I think that the villainous and heroic in Paris, portrayed by Shakespeare shows him to be a neutral character.Though Romeo comes from and aristocratic family, he is still under banishment; therefore he is in fact of lowered status.The fact that Paris does not look to put Romeo into legal trouble is extremely heroic.The use of commas, shows his last breaths, as Shakespeare breaks up the sentences to show that he can barely speak, because of the near presence of his death.
