Written between 1596 and 1598 and published in 1600, The Merchant of Venice most notably touches on the troubling subject of antisemitism. While critical debate rages about Shakespeare’s actual attitudes toward Jewish culture, it is difficult to deny that the eventual fate of Shylock is not in accord with today’s view of social justice.
Antonio, a wealthy and popular merchant, finds himself in financial difficulty due to the late. return of some ships with rich cargoes. In need of immediate cash, he approaches a Jewish money lender, Shylock, who...2024-06-2604 min

This play is a dramatization of Boccaccio's story of Gillette of Narbonne. Only the comic parts were of Shakespeare's invention; he added the characters of the pusillanimous Parolles, the lofty courtier Lafew, the Clown Lavatch, and the long suffering Countess. He gave new depth and vitality to the leading characters, who are mere outlines in Boccaccio’s tale.
The comedy has for its heroine a young woman who loves the haughty Bertram with an unrequited and despised passion, cures the King of France of a dangerous sickness, cl...2023-08-0804 min
