Initially described as a comedy, Shakespeare''s explorations of prejudice, duty and the nature of justice make The Merchant of Venice a far darker, more alluring play.
The Merchant of Venice is most associated not with its titular hero, Antonio, but with the complex, unforgettable figure of the money-lender, Shylock. It is Shylock who finances Antonio''s friend Bassanio in his pursuit of the beautiful Portia, and who demands a gruesome bond from the wealthy merchant.
This edition is illustrated throughout by Sir John Gilbert, and includes an introduction by Ned Halley.
