In order to help his good friend Bassanio to get married, the rich Venice merchant Antonio borrows money from a Jewish usurer Sherlock. The selfish and cruel Sherlock pretends not to charge interest, but if exceeding the time limit, he will cut a pound of flesh from Antonio. Unfortunately, the merchant ship of Antonio gets wrecked and he gets in a financial strait. Sherlock takes the opportunity to go to court and ask Antonio to fulfill his promise according to the law. To save Antonios life, Bassanios fiancée Portia disguises herself as a lawyer and cleverly uses her wisdom to defeat the greedy Sherlock. This book reveals the struggle between two kinds of life views during Renaissance.
