The Wordsworth Classics' Shakespeare Series presents a newly-edited sequence of William Shakespeare's works. The textual editing takes account of recent scholarship while giving the material a careful reappraisal. The Merchant of Venice is one of Shakespeare's most popular comedies, but it remains deeply controversial. The text may 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. In his intensity he can dominate the play, challenging abrasively its romantic and lyrical affirmations. What results is a bitter-sweet drama. Though The Merchant of Venice offers some of the traditional pleasures of romantic comedy, it also exposes the operations of prejudice. Thus Shakespeare remains our contemporary.
Possible directions: The hypocrisy of Christian gentlemen; the freedom of Portia (The relationship between gender conflict and racial or religion conflict); Shylock's Jewish characteristics (He's a "Stage Jew" but he's also the one who speaks the truth; law? justice? miserly? puritan? Or does he really convert every thing into money?)
评分What interest me most are Portia's ordeal for the wooers and Shylock's eloquent speech delivered for the Jews.
评分the ending was blah...extremely anticlimactic
评分总觉得安东尼奥和巴萨尼奥间不那么简单。
评分最熟悉的莎士比亚名著了,电影最近的也看过阿尔帕西诺演的shalock。只是再看,不会以故事来分析,而是以人的角度,看每个人的对话,咂摸以来才有意思 英文看得费劲,对照中文好懂多了
