Much Ado about Nothing is a comedy play written by the notorious playwright William Shakespeare. Shakespeare lived during different time periods, yet the play was written in the late 1590’s.

In both Much Ado About Nothing and The Importance of Being Earnest, marriage is the central theme, and driving force, of the plot.

Whilst the comedic world of Wilde’s Earnest satirises Victorian society, with features wildly exaggerated,
The significance of honor shows deliberately throughout Shakespeare’s play, especially towards the abrupt wedding ceremony between Hero and Claudio.
