Reviews

Sara Coodin demonstrates how The Merchant of Venice's engagement with the Genesis narratives of Jacob resonates with centuries of rabbinic midrash, early modern Christian Hebraist exegesis and 20th-century Yiddish adaptations of the play to argue that Shakespeare's play supports Jewish interpretations that would have been legible to his Christian audience.--M. Lindsay Kaplan, Georgetown University
