Society tends to misjudge people based on their appearances rather than their personalities. This can be seen in the play Cyrano De Bergerac by Edmond Rostand. In which Roxane represents that vile aspect of society. Roxane is attracted to Christian based on his looks, and in Cyrano's mind because of his looks. Society's misvaluation of people causes oppression on the individual and it is from oppression and misvaluation of character that gives rise to self-consciousness. Cyrano shows this self-awareness by helping Christian. Such oppression or self-consciousness helps form magnificent characteristic attributes such as those portrayed by Cyrano throughout the novel. After all, his society's misjudgment makes Cyrano the character he is. At the beginning of the show all aspects of society come together in the theater involving the poor and the richest. There was a moment when Roxane saw Christian for the first time and was immediately attracted to his looks, it's just as if society is ready to judge looks rather than personality, without taking Cyrano into account. Roxane tells Cyrano about Christian beauty in Act Two, Scene Five Roxane said, "His face shines with intelligence, he is proud, noble, young, fearless and beautiful." This shows that she is completely blinded by her appearance! Society will describe Christian just like Roxane but will have different aspects of him. It's telling that Christian is a brilliant person, judging by his appearance. Roxane begins searching for Christian letting Cyrano know that he is part of her regiment. In Act Two, Scene Five, Roxane says, “And it so happens, cousin, that he is a member of your regiment.” Roxane had just seen Christian once and already knew who he was and what he did....... middle of paper...... my face is about to meet above your face... his nobility no longer glory, poetry, peculiarity, liveliness, greatness, no more nose in short”]This shows how Cyrano was proud of his nose, who he was and how he looked. Society tends to misjudge people based on their appearance rather than their personality. As shown in the story of Cyrano de Bergerac, everyone misjudges people. Cyrano was ashamed of his appearance, especially his enormous nose which made him stand out. People didn't care if Cyrano got his feelings hurt, they thought he was a cruel person. It's bad when people tend to misjudge people without even knowing them, but simply judge them by their appearance instead of their personality. People should not be ashamed of their appearance and this should not prevent them from achieving their goals and expressing their feelings towards the people they like.
