Ernest is representative of the male gender and soldiers from the time period. He fits he male role in that he is fit, works hard and is devoted to his wife. This is especially important when considering the time period. He is stuck in his ways and stubborn up until the end. He is conventional of the time period in many ways and also unconventional. He is also an unconventional soldier in that he would rather die for love than for his country. He is unfazed by the idea that he is seen as a villain and viewed as a coward by his peers as he believes he is doing the right thing for his wife and fulfilling the promises he made her. However, he is nevertheless a good soldier, and was resourceful, economical and clever.

Similar Products- Character Theory
It's difficult to link Ernest to a particular theory. Goffman's protagonist is probably the most obvious, as he is a pretty standard protagonist. He's also a bit of a sacrifice- or rather he sacrifices himself for what he believes in. He is also the focal character, which is nearly always the case with protagonists. Going by Goffman's theory, this makes Rose, Ernest's wife the deuteragonist, dating back from Aeschylus's invention of a second character.
