內容推薦
《威尼斯商人》 是莎士比亞早期的重要作品，是一部具有極大諷刺性的喜劇。大約作於1596~1597年。劇本的主題是歌頌仁愛、友誼和愛情，同時也反映了資本主義早期商業資產階級與高利貸者之間的矛盾，表現了作者對資產階級社會中金錢、法律和宗教等問題的人文主義思想。這部劇作的一個重要文學成就，就是塑造了夏洛克這一惟利是圖、冷酷無情的高利貸者的典型形象。

內容簡介
《解讀》introduces students to the many issues in the play with a Literary and Dramatic Analysis chapter. Six topic chapters examine the play in its historical context, combining expert discussion and primary documents, making this ideal for interdisciplinary study.The Merchant of Venice, even in its own time, was considered Shakespeare’s most controversial play. Now, one of the most popularly read and performed works, the play raises even more important issues for our day, particularly anti-Semitism and the treatment of Jews. Shakespeare scholar Jay Halio brings together his fascinating literary insights and his considerable knowledge of Shakespeare’s world to this student casebook. His analysis of the play helps students interpret Shakespeare’s plot and interwoven subplots, the sources that helped shape the play and the characters, and the thematic issues relating to justice, mercy and the myriad bonds of human relationships. This casebook also considers contemporary applications, with essays and editorials on current hate groups in the United States, the treatment of women, and male bonding.
