Um þessa rafbók
'The man who of all modern, and perhaps ancient poets, had the largest and most comprehensive soul' John Dryden
Antonio, a Venetian merchant, wishes to help his friend get money to impress a rich heiress. But he is forced to borrow the sum from a cynical, abused Jewish moneylender, Shylock, and signs a chilling contract to honour the debt with a pound of his own flesh. An ambiguous, complex and controversial comedy, The Merchant of Venice explores prejudice, marriage, money and the true nature of justice in an unforgiving world.
Used and Recommended by the National Theatre
General Editor Stanley Wells
Edited by W. Moelwyn Merchant
Introduction by Peter Holland
