Find lines/quotes in the text that show Shylock’s hurt, his rage, his loneliness.
Hurt: My own flesh and blood to rebel
Rage: He hath disgraced me and hindered half a million
Loneliness: I have always just shrugged and put up with it because Jews are good at suffering
Do you think he cares more about losing the ducats or his daughter? Shylock seems to want the money back more than his daughter
Shylock is powerless to get back his daughter or his ducats but Antonio is now in his power. Find the first mention of revenge. Do you think his thoughts of revenge are justified, give reasons. Shylock mentions revenge first when he finds out the Antonios ships have been lost at sea. I think that his thoughts of revenge are justified because of all the bad things Antonio has done to Shylock but I think that if he just stopped thinking about revenge the whole situation might turn out better in the end
A3S1 lines 54-62. What sentiment is Shylock trying to express here, do you find sympathy for him here? Shylock is trying to express that just because he is a Jew does not make him any different and that you should not judge someone for what they believe in because they are still humans.
Choose one ‘Hath not..’ quote and explain it. Hath not a Jews eyes - Doesn't a Jew have eyes
