Fan Casting Bassanius(Bassanio)

Role added by connieblackwood on June 19, 2024

Description of Bassanius (Bassanio):

Used by Shakespeare for the friend of Antonio and suitor of Portia in his play The Merchant of Venice (1596). It is probably from the Latin word bassus meaning "thick, low", or from the related Roman cognomen Bassianus (borne by a 4th-century saint who was a bishop of Lodi).
