AB  - Discusses the ambiguity surrounding Shylock's appearance in Merchant of Venice (namely the question of whether or not the actor wore a false nose) in terms of Shakespeare's "veiled attitude toward the characters and actions in his text, which is the compositional posture that creates such persistent debates over . . . the origin of Shylock's anger, the terms of his bond, and the propriety of his forced conversion."
