Description
"The Merchant of Venice" by William Shakespeare is a play written between 1596 and 1598. When Antonio, a Venetian merchant, defaults on a loan provided by the Jewish moneylender Shylock, dire consequences loom. The debt was taken to help Antonio's friend Bassanio woo the wealthy Portia. Shylock's contract demands a shocking penalty: a pound of Antonio's flesh. Though classified as a comedy, the play is best remembered for its dramatic courtroom scenes and Shylock's famous speeches exploring humanity, mercy, and discrimination.
