2. Honour in the Play
very important to characters, especially the male ones
means more to them than the law does
A View From the Bridge shows how destructive it can be it one
takes their honour too seriously
It is also shown to us that it is difficult to respect people that
don’t respect themselves
3. Vinny Bolzano
introduces us to the theme of honour
clear to audience that Vinny had done something very wrong
it is seen that Vinny got what he deserved
Ironic that Eddie tells this story, as the does a similar thing
later on
4. Love
Eddie doesn’t admit it because he knows that it is
dishonorable
Rodolpho didn’t ask for permission to date Catherine
5. Betrayal
Alfieri warns Eddie
Marco believes that the only honourable way is to punish
Eddie for betraying the brothers
Eddie refuses to admit his mistakes
