What about the portrayal of Shylock in the play? Do you think he was portrayed unfairly?
That's a good question. Many people believe that Shylock was unfairly portrayed as a villain, and that the anti-Semitic attitudes prevalent at the time the play was written may have influenced Shakespeare's characterization of him. However, others argue that Shylock is a complex character who is both a victim and a villain in the play. What do you think?
