Female heroism in merchant of venice by William Shakespeare
Authors
Dr. Swati Chauhan
Abstract
The article interprets and analyzes Portia, Jessica, and Nerissa, the
three new bourgeois female characters created in Shakespeare’s famous work The
Merchant of Venice, and illustrate their complexity that though they have had
preliminary feminist spirit and subject consciousness, they are not willing to
submit to and be bound by the male hegemony. Since Shakespeare does not provide
any practical solutions, the work merely reflects the important role of women
in the patriarchal society at that time.
