How does Laouncelot do to solve his problem? What reason does he give?
Answers
Answer:
Launcelot’s inner struggle shows the Christian practice of struggling with the temptation to yield to it or not.
Launcelot is Shylock’s servant. His conscience advises him to be a faithful servant and the devil tempts him to leave Shylock’s service and take up with Bassanio. Launcelot wants to run away from Shylock, a Jew because his master, Shylock is the very devil in human form according to Launcelot. Shylock is a miserly man under whose service Launcelot is starved. Also, he fears that he will turn into a Jew if he serves Shylock any longer. Initially, his conscience tells him not to run away from Shylock’s household as such an act of fleeing is a matter of contempt. His conscience tells him that as he is the child of a good father or at least a good mother and so, he should stay where he is and not move.
2. In Act II Scene 2, Old Gobbo expresses that he is fond of his son. He first touches Launcelot's face and says that Launcelot has grown a long beard. Then he says that Launcelot was the very is the light and life of his old age. He even brings Launcelot's master a present. All these things show us that Old Gobbo was fond of his son.
