Well never having read it, I don't know. Your job is to read it and write the essay, and our job is to help you tighten up the essay and make it as great as we can! If the topic of your essay is prejudice, you could begin by writing something like 'In the Merchant of Venice, there are quite a few examples of prejudice, which take many forms. For instance, when the main character..."

Read it first, then see what you can come up with. Then send it back here for help. You don't even have to finish it first, just begin and we'll have a look.

I'm really stuck on finding links between pride and prejudice and the merchant of venice!

I'm kind of stuck on finding links between Antonio and Shylock in pride and prejudice and Darcy and wickham .
Links that I've found-
1.in both of the novel and the play revenge is the main theme.
2.wickham is the protagonist and Shylock is too
3.class in p+p whereas in the merchant of venice anti-semitism is crucial
Can someone help me please!

i've read the play and i think i can help you. An instances of Pride is how shylock refuses to take the money he is offered, but still tries to take a pound of flesh from Antonio. As you know at the end Shylock ends up losing a lot of his worldly possessions and this all could of been avoided.
