hey.... mate
......here is ur answer......
Shylock is a usurer who mercilessly exploits his victims. His relationship with Antonio is a contentious one because Antonio has denounced Shylock in public, and he has rescued many from their debts to Shylock.
In act 1 when Shylock talks to Bassanio, he agrees to lend him three thousand ducats because Bassanio promises that “Antonio shall be bound” for the debt if Bassanio cannot repay it. When Antonio enters the scene, Shylock speaks in an aside, which is always a true revelation of a character's feelings. First, Shylock observes that Antonio is "like a fawning publican" . (A publican is a Roman tax-gatherer. Shylock may be using this term as an inexact but bitter term of reproach.) Secondly, Shylock hates Antonio for being a Christian because the Christians have imposed restrictions upon him.
