...deeply ironic, actually, that Shakespeare chooses to cast his antagonist in the stereotypical role of the miser. As the play progresses, we see the stereotype reflected onto its creators as money reveals itself to be the foundation for their actions. Antonio's friendship with Bassanio is the relationship between benefactor and courtesan. Bassanio's love for Portia is linked to the fortune she will bring him, and even the marriage between Bassanio's man Gratiano and Portia's maid Nerissa (Catherine Crow HGSE '99) is contingent upon their employers' financial union.

Although the move put both sides into uncharted legal territory, it seems fairly certain...
Addicts who can afford ultrarapid detox--the procedure costs as much as $10,000--are attracted to it because they can escape days and even weeks of agonizing withdrawal symptoms. They are given an antagonist, usually naltrexone or naloxone, that quickly displaces opiates and attaches itself to the same brain receptors that opiates seek out. During the several hours of detoxification, patients are under general anesthesia and unaware of the severe "shake and bake" symptoms they are enduring. Still, they are often dizzy, exhausted and barely able to walk after awakening. And they need the same follow-up counseling...
