Discuss the theme of 'Appearances versus Reality' with reference to the choice of casket made by three suitors-Prince Morocco,Prince Arragon and Bassanio
Answers
Answer:
The Prince of Morocco is given several options for the casket—lead, silver, and gold. He chooses the gold casket but it turns out that's not the right one. The inscription inside the gold casket tells the Prince of Morocco that he is bold but not wise, young but old-fashioned. He was not open-minded enough to think that Portia's picture may not be in the most valuable, most glittery and attractive casket. He is predictable in selecting the gold casket and he loses. He leaves empty-handed.

Answer:
The Prince of Morocco is dazzled by the outward shiny appearance of gold. He mistakes outward appearance for inner worth. Shakespeare has conveyed that material wealth is of little value compared to love and what it implies. Appearances can be deceptive and love cannot be won without sacrificing.
Prince of Morocco mistakenly believes that since Portia is of the highest value, her portrait will be found in golden chest! He choses the golden chest, showing that he is superficial, greedy and materialistic.
Prince of Morocco fails to understand that one must sacrifice for love's sake and therefore, he fails to win Portia.
