Question

What is it that is denied by Antonio? What claims does he make? In what sense

do his claims prove to be wrong later?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In The Merchant of Venice, Shylock loans Bassanio three thousand ducats without interest for a term of three months with Antonio backing Bassanio to guarantee the loan. One of the conditions of this loan is that Antonio must pay in a pound of flesh if he cannot repay the loan itself on time.

Answer 2

Answer:

Shylock lends the money to Antonio with some slightly gory conditions. Bassanio approaches the Jewish moneylender, Shylock, and asks to borrow 3000 ducats with Antonio as a bond . Shylock points out that Antonio's money is invested at sea, and a loan is risky because the ships might sink or be attacked by pirates.
