Question

in what way does portia act as a romantic heroine in this scene? how is the theme of love versus wealth developed in this scene?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In this scene Portia acts as a romantic heroine as she shows her feminine features when she delays Bassanio while making the choice of casket and she expresses her love for him. When he makes the right choice, she plays joyful music to celebrate his success.The theme of appearance and reality is brought out really well in the choice of caskets . Bassanios' speech about gold and silver tells us about the false appearance. He says that the gold shines brightly but it can hide many dark secrets within it.
