A less apparent theme is the empathy the women in the plot find for each other. Looking at the play from this perspective we see a distinct set of characters, a plot, and a f...

My thesis is that the contrast between (and equation of) mercy and revenge in the trial scene reveals the true nature of Venetian soc...
