  • Book Description

    The Merchant of Venice has been performed more often than any other comedy by Shakespeare. This edition pays special attention to the expectations of its first audience, and to our modern experience of seeing and hearing the play.

  • Product Description

    This collection of essays is aimed at students who are working on The Merchant of Venice and who are looking for new ways of thinking about Shakespeare's most controversial play and new ways of thinking about their own practice as critics. The collection offers a spectrum of the more recent writings on the play that open up its historical, cultural and political significance, and serve to demonstrate some of the ways in which contemporary criticism is both based upon critical theory and is also about the practice of criticism. This is an illuminating and helpful collection of essays by some of the liveliest critics working on Shakespeare today.
