This PowerPoint lesson guides the class through the critical scene, Act 3 scene 1. It explores the presentation of the scene in prose, the powerful language (and patterns that echo earlier ideas) in Shylock’s speeches, the religious animosity between characters and the dramatic impact of this scene within the wider sequence of the play. The context to the religious tension is explained along with the parallels forming between the wrongs Shylock feels at the hands of the Christians and the penalty he determines to take. The lesson closes with three exam-style questions (one each suitable for AQA, OCR and Edexcel exam boards). 27 slides.
