How does Hero live up to her name In other words how is Hero the hero of the story?

Answer 1

In the story "Much Ado About Nothing," Hero lives up to her name and is the hero of the story for many different reasons. One reason is that Hero doesn't argue nearly as much as anyone else in the story. Beatrice and Benedick argue so much in the story, and Hero doesn't argue at all. She isn't sarcastic, and doesn't talk badly about other people. Another reason why she's the hero of the story is that she remains faithful to the man she loves even after heartbreak. When Claudio's extreme suspicion led him to believe the false lies that Hero was sleeping around with another man, he publicly shamed her at their wedding. But Hero didn't give up, and had a plot to get him back. When she pretended to be dead, she knew Claudio would feel sad and miss her, and after a while, she showed up and got married to him in the end.
