William Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice" is one of many tragedies written during the Renaissance. The protagonist in Shakespeare's play, Shylock, is a Jewish moneylender who wants revenge on Antonio for having insulted him. When Shylock demands more money than Antonio can pay because he has loaned him so much, Antonio agrees to a match with three conditions: if he wins the match then Shylock will forfeit all his worldly goods, if Shylock loses then he must give up his life of hate and anger, and if Antonio dies in the fight then both men will receive nothing.

In "The Merchant of Venice" Shakespeare portrays the tragic story of Shylock, a wealthy Jewish merchant in 16th century Venice. As Shylock's daughter is about to be married to a Christian suitor, he demands from her father-in-law payment for a loan which he granted him. In return, Shylock demands that his daughter be given to him for six months. The man agrees but only if the Jew will give him his daughter for three months at a time when she is menstruating and he is not in love with her.
