Question

What is the kindness Shlock willing to show in act 1 scene 3 ? Is it really kindness?

Answer 1

Answer:

Shylock is willing to give 3000 thousand ducats for three months without any interest but this is not kindness as he is doing this on a dangerous bond that if Bassanio fails to return the money, then according to the bond, Shylock would get a pound of flesh from any part of Antonio'body which he desires.
