1、 The Merchant of Venice "is one of Shakespeare's representative works of comedy and also one of his most successful plays. The author successfully created a vivid and complex image of Sherlock through interconnected plot conflicts. This play has been staged and adapted into a movie multiple times, becoming an enduring classic of drama.
2、 Shakespeare used Sherlock's conversation with Antonio to make many people begin to sympathize with the Jews. "Many times you have cursed me at the exchange, saying that I exploit for profit. I always swallow my pride, shrugged my shoulders, and did not argue with you, because enduring persecution is a characteristic of our nation. You have cursed me as a heretic, a killing dog, and spat saliva on my Jewish robe just because I used my own money to earn a few interests
3、 The three major characteristics of Shakespeare's tragedies are: 1. The protagonists of tragedies are mostly nobles. 2. It mostly ends with the death of a hero. 3. The actions of tragic characters must come from their own will and heart, that is, the reason why tragic characters lead to unfortunate endings cannot be attributed to objective reasons, but should be borne by themselves (except for Romeo and Juliet).
4、 Shakespeare has a bit of the ability to turn stone into gold: the main plot of his plays is almost entirely derived from others, but after his processing, these plots gain new profound meanings.
