Merchant of Venice

Act four scene one

What does the Duke believe Shylock intends to do? He wants to take the flesh but not the money

What does Shylock intend to do, and what reasons does he give for his decision?

He intends to take the pound of flesh

Why must the law be allowed to stand (why can’t the judge dismiss this case)
Shylock is very clear about the restrictions in the wording of the deed, how does Portia use these loopholes?

What penalties does Shylock now have to pay? Are they fair? Why/why not.

If he doesn't take the flesh he will get paid three thousand ducats but if he wants the flesh he will not get paid that amount or the other thing is he will pay half to Antonio and the other half to the others

How do Lorenzo and Jessica gain the result?

They say if Shylock takes the pound of flesh but if he bleeds they get to take his house and all of his money

What reward has Portia claimed and why is this significant?

She got the ring

Portia tells Shylock ‘The quality of mercy is not strained’. How does she try to persuade Shylock to show mercy, how much mercy is she willing to show him (line 345-362)

She tries to persuade shylock by using the laws and she's not showing mercy to him

A4S1 L 70-80. Antonio gives us three short images of how useless any attempt by Bassanio

to save his life will be
What are they?

What do they tell us about one of Shakespeare's interests
Do you think this is an effective way of demonstrating the problem?

Each example is an extreme and impossible, what influence does this have on how you expect the rest of the scene to develop.

A4S1 L90-100, Shylock uses vivid comparisons when he wants to make a point.

What example does he use to illustrate the fact that the pound of flesh is his: ‘tis mine and I will have it’
Shylock wants the flesh and he will get the pound of flesh

is much longer comparison than the three used by Antonio but does you think it is more striking/effective/convincing?

Act four scene 2 

What invitation does Portia refuse and why?
She refuses the invitation to dinner with him but she will only take the ring

What does Nerissa plan to get, why do you think this is important?
She wants to talk with him so she can get her husbands ring

Do you admire Portia after these scenes, or do you find her actions cruel? Use examples to support your thinking.
