Analysis of a Character: Tyrion Lannister in A Game of Thrones
Tyrion Lannister is probably the shortest man in the novel and series Game of Thrones (Kirk, Marshall and Nutter). It is this characteristics and the fact that he has a mismatch of a green and a black eye which make him very conspicuous in the story. Despite his stature and the incompatibility of his eyes, Tyrion is one of the wittiest and cleverest characters both in the novel and TV series. For instance, he tries to devise a way to escape Eyrie although without success. Tyrion’s sharp mind helps him to stand out among others in both the book and the series.
In both the novel and the movie, Tyrion is portrayed as a person who is honest with himself. He is able to acknowledge how other characters perceive him because of his stature. Tyrion demonstrates honesty when he confesses his trivial wrongdoings before Lysa or when he gives his advice to Jon, Joffrey, and Tywin. He is gifted with the ability to determine other people’s intentions (Martin 75). Tyrion seems to have more similarities with the mythological Lannister family ancestor than any other member of his family.
