Question

11. Examine Morocco's opening lines. What issues does he address?

Answer 1

Answer:

He adresses the issue of his skin colour. He says to portia not to reject him on the grounds of his colour because he stays near the equator where the sun rays fall vertically. He is also prepared to give test for his love for Portia and asks her to bring any person born in north and to make a cut in his skin to see whose blood is reddest (the one with reddest blood was considered to be the most courageous)
