The Merchant of Venice is probably the most controversial of all
Shakespeare's plays. It is also one of the least understood. Is it
a comedy or a tragedy? What is the meaning behind the test of the
caskets? Who is the real villain of the trial scene? Is Shylock
simply vicious and venomous, or is he more sinned against than
sinning? Can the play be described as anti-semitic? What exactly is
the quality of mercy? Is Portia one of the great Christian heroines
of western literature? And what of the comedy of the rings with
which Shakespeare ends the play? These questions and many others
are answered in this critical edition of one of the Bard's
liveliest plays.
