Description

Measure for Measure by William Shakespeare is a dark comedy that delves into issues of justice, morality, and power. Set in Vienna, the Duke temporarily leaves the city under the strict rule of his deputy, Angelo, who enforces a harsh moral code. Angelo condemns a young man, Claudio, to death for impregnating his fiancée out of wedlock. Claudio’s sister, Isabella, a novice nun, pleads for her brother’s life, but Angelo offers her a disturbing bargain: he will spare Claudio in exchange for her virginity. The play explores themes of corruption, hypocrisy, mercy, and the complexity of human desires as characters grapple with difficult choices. Through a mix of comedy and serious commentary, Shakespeare critiques both the law and human frailty, ultimately raising questions about justice and forgiveness.
