Male friendship or male bonding tends to get little respect these days, and when it does appear, it tends to get explained away in homosexual terms. However, in the Renaissance (male) friendship was taken much more seriously than it is today. Consider the relationship between Love and Friendship or Male bonding in the “Two Gentlemen of Verona” (Proteus and Valentine). To what extent are the tensions between the demands of romantic love and the obligations of (male) friendship or male bonding central to the love-plot of the play.
Include at least ten quotes (including Two BLOCK quotes) from the “Two Gentlemen of Verona”
