Horatio in Romeo & Juliet
[edit]Reading through various editions of Romeo & Juliet, it seems he does not appear, but a ghost character named 'Horatio', presumably a Montague, appears at the beginning of Act I, Scene IV, at least in one edition I studied in school.
He is discussed at []. Is there any other evidence that can be found of his existence, and if so, is it worth adding him to the article? Pookiyama (talk) 18:56, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
Another ghost
[edit]I seem to remember that Coriolanus' wife is another ghost. Virginia? DionysosProteus 01:55, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
- I've actually started an article on her at my sandbox. Although there is one scene where she enters, exits, and says nothing, She plays a very large role in the play, so I wouldn't call her a ghost. It's Volumnia, too, by the way. Wrad 02:00, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
Volumna is Coriolanus' mother. Not his wife. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.167.250.78 (talk) 22:45, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
Removed a passage
[edit]The following passage has to do with non-speaking roles, which doesn't really belong in this article.
"Other plays of the period include ghost characters, such as John Webster's The White Devil, in which "little Jacques the Moor", "Christophero", "Guid-antonio", and "Farneseis" are mentioned entering, but have no lines." reference: David Gunby et al.
