The Truth About Shylock is a book written by Bernard Grebanier that explores the character of Shylock in William Shakespeare's play, The Merchant of Venice. The book delves into the historical context of the play, as well as the cultural and political factors that influenced Shakespeare's portrayal of the Jewish moneylender. Grebanier examines the controversy surrounding Shylock's character and the accusations of anti-Semitism that have been leveled against Shakespeare. The book also analyzes the themes of justice, mercy, and revenge that are central to the play, and considers the significance of Shylock's famous speech in Act III, Scene 1. Overall, The Truth About Shylock offers a nuanced and insightful analysis of one of Shakespeare's most complex and controversial characters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
