Jessica, a Jew marries Lorenzo, a Christian do you approve of such 'mixed' marriage?​
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Sometimes listed among Shakespeare's “problem plays” because of its ambiguous treatment of issues such as religion, economics, and the role of women, The Merchant of Venice has also been a source of heated critical disagreement with regard to race. In this light, scholars have discussed not only Shakespeare's ambivalent depiction of the Jewish moneylender, Shylock, but also his derogatory presentation of minor, non-European characters such as the Prince of Morocco. Critics have debated whether this racial tension is evidence of Shakespeare's own opinions. Alternatively, some scholars have suggested that Shakespeare might have relied on his racially charged scenes to create an allegorical drama or to satirize and thereby condemn his own culture's prejudices.

Explanation:

Jessica abandons her father, Shylock, and her Jewish identity in order to marry Lorenzo and convert to Christianity. She makes it clear that she is unhappy living with Shylock, saying things like “our house is hell” and “though I am daughter to his blood / I am not to his manners” (II.iii). Lorenzo describes Jessica as “wise, fair, and true” (II.vi.56). She reveals her intelligence and independence when she escapes her father’s house by disguising herself in male clothing and taking money and other valuables with her. Jessica is aware that she is violating traditional expectations of showing loyalty to her father, but she ultimately chooses Lorenzo in hopes of becoming a loving wife. At the end, the play suggests that Jessica makes the right decision, as she enjoys a happy marriage and is rewarded with an income and inheritance that Antonio secured for her after Shylock lost the court case

a young woman with a particular suitor in mind, Jessica faces a similar challenge to Portia because both women are controlled by their fathers (dead or alive) and unable to freely choose whom they want to marry. In contrast with Portia, who honors her father’s wishes and takes a gamble in hoping that Bassanio will make the right choice, Jessica is more proactive and takes control of her own destiny. Jessica also functions as a sympathetic Jewish character and therefore as a kind of foil to the villainous Shylock. Lancelot describes her as the “most beautiful pagan, most sweet Jew” (II.iii.11-12). Lorenzo, who is a Christian, loves Jessica despite her faith and family origins. Thus, Jessica’s beloved ness suggests that Shylock’s cruel and vicious nature is specific to him and does not reflect all Jews. At the same time, Jessica is harsh toward her own father, robbing him, escaping his household, and even trading his precious ring for a monkey. While Shylock is not blameless, the play asks us to consider if the mistreatment from his daughter is fully deserved.
