Description

This book is edited, introduced and annotated by Cedric Watts, Professor of English Literature, University of Sussex. “The Merchant of Venice” is one of Shakespeare’s most popular comedies, but it remains deeply controversial. The text may well seem anti-Semitic; yet repeatedly, in performance, it has revealed a contrasting nature. Shylock, though vanquished in the law-court, often triumphs in the theatre. He is a character so intense that he can dominate the play, challenging abrasively its romantic and lyrical affirmations.
