Jewish moneylender, Shylock is the plays principal antagonist. His defeat and conversion to Christianity forms the climax of the story. Name. Shylock is not a Jewish name. However, some scholars believe it probably derives from the biblical name Shalah, which is Shelach in Hebrew. Shalah is the grandson of Shem and the father of Eber, biblical progenitor of Hebrew peoples. All the names of Jewish characters in the play derive from minor figures listed in genealogies in the Book of Genesis. It is possible that Shakespeare originally intended the name to be pronounced with a short i, as rather than a long one. The modern pronunciation has changed because the standard spelling with a y signifies to readers a long i pronunciation. Other scholars emphasise that, although the name echoes some Hebrew names, Shylock was a common sixteenth century English name that would have been familiar to Shakespeares fellow Londoners, and the name is notable for its Saxon origin, meaning white haired. The Shylocks of sixteenth century London included goldsmiths, mercers, and, most visibly of all, scriveners,2 According to prominent scholar Stephen Orgel, a Stanford professor who serves with A. R. Braunmuller as general editor of The Pelican Shakespeare series from Penguin. In the play. Shylock is a Jew who lends money to his Christian rival Antonio, setting the security at a pound of Antonios flesh. When a bankrupt Antonio defaults on the loan, Shylock demands the pound of flesh. Pounds Of FleshThis decision is fuelled by his sense of revenge, for Antonio had previously insulted, physically assaulted and spat on him in the Rialto stock exchange of Venice dozens of times, defiled the sacred Jewish religion and had also inflicted massive financial losses on him. Meanwhile, Shylocks daughter, Jessica, falls in love with Antonios friend Lorenzo and converts to Christianity, leaves Shylocks house and steals vast riches from him, which adds to Shylocks rage and hardens his resolve for revenge. In the end due to the efforts of Antonios well wisher, Portia Shylock is charged with attempted murder of a Christian, carrying a possible death penalty, and Antonio is freed without punishment. Shylock is then ordered to surrender half of his wealth and property to the state and the other half to Antonio. However, as an act of mercy, Antonio modifies the verdict, asking Shylock to hand over only one half of his wealth to him Antonio for his own as well as Lorenzos need provided that he keeps two promises. First, Shylock has to sign an agreement bequeathing all his remaining property to Lorenzo and Jessica, which is to become effective after his demise, and second, he is to immediately convert to Christianity. Shylock is forced to agree to these terms, and he exits citing illness. Historical background. In Shakespeares time, no Jews had been legally present in England for several hundred years since the Edict of Expulsion in 1. However, stereotypes of Jews as money lenders remained from the Middle Ages. Historically, money lending had been a fairly common occupation among Jews, in part because Christians were not permitted to practise usury, then considered to mean charging interest of any kind on loans, and Jews were excluded from other fields of work. At the same time, most Christian kings forbade Jews to own land for farming or to serve in the government, and craft guilds usually refused to admit Jews as artisans. Thus money lending was one of the few occupations still open to Jews. Hyam Maccoby argues that the play is based on medieval morality plays, in which the Virgin Mary here represented by Portia argues for the forgiveness of human souls, as against the implacable accusations of the Devil Shylock. Portrayal. Shylock on stage. Jacob Adler and others report that the tradition of playing Shylock sympathetically began in the first half of the 1. Edmund Kean. 5 Previously the role had been played by a comedian as a repulsive clown or, alternatively, as a monster of unrelieved evil. Keans Shylock established his reputation as an actor. Since Keans time, many other actors who have played the role have chosen a sympathetic approach to the character. Edwin Booth was a notable exception, playing him as a simple villain, although his father Junius Brutus Booth had portrayed the character sympathetically. Henry Irvings portrayal of an aristocratic, proud Shylock first seen at the Lyceum in 1. Portia played by Ellen Terry has been called the summit of his career. Jacob Adler was the most notable of the early 2. Yiddish in an otherwise English language production. Kean and Irving presented a Shylock justified in wanting his revenge. Adlers Shylock evolved over the years he played the role, first as a stock Shakespearean villain, then as a man whose better nature was overcome by a desire for revenge, and finally as a man who operated not from revenge but from pride.

Theater magazine, Adler pointed out that Shylock is a wealthy man, rich enough to forgo the interest on three thousand ducats and that Antonio is far from the chivalrous gentleman he is made to appear. He has insulted the Jew and spat on him, yet he comes with hypocritical politeness to borrow money of him. Shylocks fatal flaw is to depend on the law, but would he not walk out of that courtroom head erect, the very apotheosis of defiant hatred and scorn9Some modern productions explore the justification of Shylocks thirst for vengeance. For instance, in the 2. Michael Radford and starring Al Pacino as Shylock, the film begins with text and a montage of how the Jewish community is abused by the Christian population of the city. One of the last shots of the film also highlights that, as a convert, Shylock would have been cast out of the Jewish community in Venice, no longer allowed to live in the ghetto. But he would likely not have been fully accepted by the Christians, as they would remember his Jewish birth. Another interpretation of Shylock and a vision of how must he be acted appears at the conclusion of the autobiography of Alexander Granach, a noted Jewish stage and film actor in Weimar Germany and later in Hollywood and on Broadway. Other representations. Elmore Leonards book Get Shorty was later made into the movie Get Shorty starring John Travolta, wherein Travoltas character Ernest Chilli Palmer is a shylock, or loan shark.

The Merchant of Venice where the characters meet again some years later. All of the marriages that ended The Merchant of Venice are unhappy, Antonio is an obsessive bore reminiscing about his escape from death, but Shylock, freed from religious prejudice, is richer than before and a close friend and confidante of the Doge. Arnold Weskers play The Merchant 1. Shylocks point of view. In this retelling, Shylock and Antonio are friends bound by a mutual love of books and culture and a disdain for the anti Semitism of the Christian communitys laws. They make the bond in defiant mockery of the Christian establishment, never anticipating that the bond might become forfeit. When it does, the play argues, Shylock must carry through on the letter of the law or jeopardise the scant legal security of the entire Jewish community. He is, therefore, quite as grateful as Antonio when Portia, as in Shakespeares play, shows the legal way out. The play received its American premiere on 1. November 1. 97. 7 at New Yorks Plymouth Theatre with Joseph Leon as Shylock, Marian Seldes as Shylocks sister Rivka and Roberta Maxwell as Portia.
