all bubbly and the answer cannot be seen, what do
they do? ... they shake it some more! I have found

of Venice is more complex than is originally
thought. He is not only seen by the audience as
the traditional stock villain; I hate him-p 13,
but he also evokes the audiences empathy such as
in his famous speech: hath not a Jew eyes? -p 47.
Shylock is caricature to fit the profile of a
typically villainous character in the eyes of an
Elizabethan audience; his career in usury, his
Jewish religion, and his attitude towards money

four hundred years. Alt...
