Jessicas Flight

29/03/2018

Act Three, Scene One
1. Why does Shylock assume Solanio and Salerio know of Jessica’s flight? He knows that Lorenzo is with her. He thinks that Solanio and Salerio helped Jessica escape because they are friends with Lorenzo.
2. What is the second suggestion of misfortune for Antonio- find a quote.
That there is a rumour about another one of his boats sunk because it went past a place that's known for having a lot of shipwrecks. "Why, yet it lives there unchecked that Antonio hath a ship of rich lading wracked
on the narrow seas. The Goodwins I think they call the place—a very dangerous flat,
and fatal, where the carcasses of many a tall ship lie buried"


3. Who has been looking for Lorenzo and Jessica, how do we know?
Tubal has been getting information about where Jessica is and has been reporting back to Shylock.
4. Where do Shylock and Tubal arrange to meet and with what purpose?

That there is a rumour about another one of his boats sunk because it went past a place that's known for having a lot of shipwrecks. "Why, yet it lives there unchecked that Antonio hath a ship of rich lading wracked
on the narrow seas. The Goodwins I think they call the place—a very dangerous flat,
and fatal, where the carcasses of many a tall ship lie buried"
