Dispute Resolution
THE MERCHANT OF VENICE
In Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice,” Bassanio sought funds to court the affluent Portia. His friend Antonio, a merchant lacking immediate resources, secured a loan from the moneylender Shylock, with Antonio as guarantor backed by his anticipated shipments. Shylock, harbouring resentment toward Antonio for interest-free lending that depressed Venice’s rates, extended the loan without interest but demanded a pound of Antonio’s flesh upon non payment. When Antonio’s ships were lost at sea, rendering repayment impossible. Bassanio, now prosperous through his marriage to Portia, offered double the sum, which Shylock rejected in favour of the gruesome penalty. Portia, disguised, intervened with astute interpretation: Shylock could claim the flesh but not a drop of blood, thereby saving Antonio’s life.
