What decision is made between tranio gremio and baptista?
In Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew," the decision made between Tranio, Gremio, and Baptista revolves around the courtship of Bianca. Gremio and Tranio both vie for Baptista's approval to win Bianca's hand in marriage. Ultimately, Baptista decides that Bianca cannot be courted until her older sister, Katherina, is married, which complicates their plans and sets the stage for the ensuing comedic conflicts.
Is tranio a flat character in taming of the shrew?
Tranio is not a particularly well-developed character, but then his part is relatively minor, so that is just what you expect. He is basically a foil for Lucentio, and is a servant playing at being the master later on. If Shakespeare spent a lot of time rounding out every messenger that came in with one line, the plays would be interminable and incomprehensible.
What purpose does it have that tranio becomes lucentio?
Tranio becomes Lucentio in Shakespeare's "The Taming of the Shrew" in order to assist his master, Lucentio, in courting Bianca while Lucentio assumes the role of a tutor. This switch allows Lucentio to interact with Bianca more freely and eventually win her affection. It also adds an element of disguise and deception to the plot, leading to comedic situations.
