How does Shylock's lamentation add humour to the play, Merchant of Venice? ​

English
1 answer:

8 0

Answer:

Shylock in "Merchant of the Venice" is depicted as a comic character in the scene because of the way he laments the loss of his daughter and his ducat.

Explanation:

The manner in which Shylock's laments added humor to the play, His repetition of "O my daughter!, O! my christian ducats", amuses the audience and shows his greedy nature because it is shown that Jessica is another possession for him as well as the ducats.

The manner and way in which the boys of Venice mocked and jeered him as they followed him by repeating the tone of his lamentation, all this added to the humor in the scene. Shylock wants justice from the Jew who had eloped with his daughter and taking with her, his jewelry and ducats.

To compare and contrast the reactions of the several characters in <em>"Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry" by Mildred D. Taylor,</em> we have chosen Cassie Logan and Mama (Mary Logan).

 

  • These two characters stand for principles in the book, especially the principles that condemn racism in America. They are both females. Mary is the mother of Cassie. One can expect to see how much they are alike. But they are different in their reactions to intimidation and harassment are not similar.

 

  • Mary is quite educated and a schoolteacher. She is experienced and understanding. But Mama does not condone slavery and the evil effects of racism on blacks. Based on this, she teaches topics not covered in the syllabus. Finally, Mr Granger fires her to teach her a lesson. She decides to continue her social leadership role in the community.

 

  • Cassie is still undergoing her education. She is naive but intelligent. She shows her braveness by fully expressing her anger and shouting down white supremacists on every occasion.

 

  • Their different reactions to intimidation or harassment are captured by how Mary Logan subtly uses her teaching and leadership skills to undo the evils of enshrined slave mentality in her students and comrades. On the other hand, Cassie prefers confrontation with those who intimidate her and those close to her.

 

Thus, mother and daughter are two characters who react differently to the problems faced by blacks in the community.
