SHYLOCK AS A SYMPATHETIC CHARACTER / "HATH NOT A JEW EYES?" /.../ Some critics regard his well-known "Hath not a Jew eyes?" speech as a redeeming moment that lends him qualities of a tragic figure. In this speech, Shylock contends that he is fundamentally no different from the Christian characters. [ 26 ] Critics who dispute a sympathetic reading of the speech note that it concludes with a call for revenge: "if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?" Those who view the passage more sympathetically emphasize that Shylock attributes his desire for retribution to the example set by the Christian characters: "If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by Christian example? Why, revenge. The villainy you teach me, I will execute, and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction." /.../ #Shylock #VeneetsiaKaupmees #WilliamSakespeare #VaimInVenice #KülaooperArmandonia # SolvunudSibulad #Armandonia #ErioperatsioonWegebau #WhoTheFuckIs...
