Question

What are the 2 different types of relationships in The merchant of venice? (portia and bassanio) (Jessica and lorenzo)

Answer 1

The relationship between Portia and Bassanio is apparently a stainless romantic relationship in Shakespeare's romantic comedy The Merchant of Venice. But, if one looks closely, there appears to be some scars in it. Critics have also suggested a possible homoerotic communion between Bassanio and Antonio.

Jessica and Lorenzo were true lover as Jessica left her house and father for him even when she knows that he is christian and her father hates them. Lorenzo also knows that she is a daughter of a cruel person who don't kind on anyone and finding a way to take revenge from his one of the friends i.e., Antonio.
