When does Cyrano De Bergerac have a conflict with himself?

Answer 1

Throughout, Cyrano wants to express his love for his cousin, but his perceived ugliness prevents him from expressing it to Roxanne. When he is telling Christian what to say, he is really telling Roxanne what he feels for her.

Answer 2

Cyrano de Bergerac experiences inner conflict throughout the play due to his insecurities with his physical appearance, especially his large nose. His struggle with self-doubt and fear of rejection prevent him from expressing his love for Roxane, leading to internal turmoil as he grapples with his feelings. Additionally, Cyrano's strong sense of honor and pride often clash with his self-perceived flaws, creating a constant internal battle.
