Essay
You are to choose one of the following three essay prompts. During class on Tuesday, May 17th, you will write a five paragraph essay answering the question you chose. By far the most important aspect of the essay is textual support!!! You do not need to include in text citations or a works cited page, but you must specifically connect scenes/event from the text to the topic and demonstrate how the scenes/events support the points of your essay.

#3: Consider the various types of love featured in The Merchant of Venice: friendship, love between father and child, romantic love, as well as love of possessions/money.
