Abstract:
The Merchant of Venice's seemingly disconnected and interweaving plots contribute to the difficulty of assessing its characters and genre. The comic-tragic ambiguity of the character of Shylock only deepens this ambiguity. There is a precedent in the literature for looking to Aristotle and the Poetics to inform the study of the Shakespeare canon, but few have attempted to understand MV in terms of the taxonomy of ancient classical poetics. I attempt to do this, and find this approach very fruitful for addressing some of the problematic characteristics of the play, especially with regard to pl

Abstract:
This thesis explores the pervasive role of commerce in Shakespeare’s comedy The Merchant of Venice, with a particular focus on the characters of Antonio, Bassanio, Shylock, and Portia, and the dual locales of Venice and Belmont. The way in which various characters engage in commerce is a reflection of their individual motives and affiliations. At the same time, the rhetoric of commerce, worth, and value colors the speech of various characters, and influences seemingly extra-commercial considerations such as identity, friendship, religion, socioeconomic status, and love.

Abstract:
Shakespeare?s Shylock from the Merchant of Venice is a complex character who not only defies simple definition but also takes over a play in which he is not the titular character. How Shakespeare arrived at Shylock in the absence of a Jewish presence in early modern England, as well as what caused the playwright to humanize his villain when other playwrights had not is the subject of much debate. This thesis shows Shakespeare?s humanizing of Shylock as a blurring of the lines between Jews and Christians, and as such, a shift of usury from a uniquely Jewish problem to a human problem.

The presence of disabled characters like blind Gobbo in The Merchant of Venice and epileptic Othello are handy physical metaphors for the failures of epistemology that occur in both plays. Disability is often construed as a sort of saboteur of knowledge—disability of all kinds inhibiting the ability to perceive the world as an abled person would. But disability also produces a new, necessary sort of knowledge in order to survive and thrive in an unaccommodating world. A disabled epistemology suggests that knowing is contingent on individual, specific experience of the world. Tied to this iss

It draws on ideas from Derrida and other recent theorists to argue that Shakespeare treats hospitality as the site of urgent ethical inquiry. Far more than a mechanical part of the stage business that brings characters on and off the performance space and into contact with one another, hospitality is allied to the darker visions of these troubling plays.

The Puritans constituted a very vocal influential minority during the time of Shakespeare.

The interrelations of elements of grace and works make it difficult to interpret what a covenant should be like: more like a modern contract or more like a feudalistic promise system?

Abstract:
This dissertation critiques four stagings of The Merchant of Venice observed in three theatrical cultures of the Anglophone world and argues that engaging productions of this script take into account its self-deconstructive character as one of its most decisive ordering principles. The dissertation draws on Derrida's Deconstruction, stressing that, according to the acknowledged father of the movement, texts do have transcendental traces. It discusses themes such as anti-Semitism versus ethnic intolerance,homosexuality verus somody, carnivalization, and the representation of emotions.

碩士<br>輔仁大學<br>英國語文學系<br>92<br>This thesis investigates the constructions of self and the fluidity of space in the sixteen century, with specific focus on Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice. Grounded with a new historical reading and applied a postmodern theory on space, I discuss how the development of self is linked with space and the changeable spatiality makes the process of self-identity incomplete. The focus of Chapter One is on the way of constructions of self in the sixteenth Elizabethan England. By historicizing the sociopolitical background in the sixteenth century, I d

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立彰化師範大學<br>英語學系<br>89<br>The Merchant of Venice reflects a confrontation between bourgeois groups in Tudor England. The Jewish group, represented by Shylock, and its rival group, represented by the Christians, through law and religion struggle with each other over the dominance of economic power. This thesis aims to employ the Marxist perspective of "commodity-fetishism" and discuss how the law, religion, and human relations are reified in a capitalistic society. Chapter One begins with the capitalistic background in early modern England society, followed by definitions of

The Merchant of Venice dramatizes a confrontation between two religiously demarcated bourgeois groups in Venice, which in turn, allegorizes the changing socio-economic situation in Tudor England. This thesis aims to employ the economic and exchange perspectives and argues the formation of community in Shakespeare's The Merchant

Abstract:
Through an analysis of the details of The Merchant of Venice, I will show that a costume design which only satisfies the basic role of articulating the relationships, status, time and place, etc of the play but has no point of view regarding that text’s inherent assumptions will always support, rather than subvert, any problematic issues present therein. Secondly, I will show that without tandem movement from the creative team, no rehabilitation or subversion is possible.
