Prof. Jay L. Halio, Shakespeare's Shylock and Its Controversies
Professor will speak on how Shylock is a bundle of contradictions and ambiguities, which Shakespeare developed as he began writing the play, and the different ways he has been presented to audiences over the centuries. He will conclude with his own interpretation of Shylock as Shakespeare's "bad Jew."
