In the play "The Merchant Of Venice" by William Shakespeare, the author shows us a character with plenty of negative traits. Tofocus on one, for example, we could look at his vindictiveness. his desire is to achieve revenge at all costs, even to that of his own life. There are many reasons that cause individuals to become spiteful and vindictive - in Shylock's case he perceives not only himself but his whole race to be hard-done-by, even persecuted. The perceived cruelty and humiliation engenders in him a need toregain control, to be in a position of power against those who have insulted, offended or affronted him or the dignity of his race. He shows obsesion however in his need to carry this through to the nth degree, even when offered ways in which to mitigate his circumstances.

1.character sketch of Shylock in the merchant of Venice-
Shylock was a merchant living in a Christian city as Antonio. he was jealous of Antonio as everybody came to Antonio for loans and Shylock was a greedy, revenge full man. one day, there was a wedding of Antonio friend but his ships were not there so Antonio went to Shylock and said you have to pay back money with interest. then Shylock said if you did not pay the money then i will cut your finger and Antonio agreed to this. so after that Antonio ship did not come and Shylock became patient-less and told this case to court. the lawyer of the court was Antonio friends lover and she helped Antonio and said that Shylock you can cut his finger but blood should not fall. now, Shylock was confused and refused and then all his property was distributed among Venice. indeed Shylock was very bad hearted man and did not care about anyone's feelings as in the story.
