The merchant of Venice

Shakespeare, William 1564-1616 (author.). Schaffer, Randal (narrator.). Playaway Digital Audio. (Added Author). Findaway World, LLC. (Added Author). In Audio (Firm). (Added Author).

Summary: Shylock, a Jewish moneylender, agrees to lend Antonio, a Venetian merchant, three thousand ducats so that his friend Bassanio can afford to court his love, Portia. However, Shylock has one condition: should the loan go unpaid, he will be entitled to a pound of Antonios own flesh. The Merchant of Venice is often read and analyzed for its portrayal of Judaism and antisemitism, its spin on the common courtroom drama, and for Shakespeares signature witty writing and observations about humanity. It is a play that, like many of Shakespeares works, can be read and interpreted in many ways, and leaves the final judgments of the characters to the audience to decide.
