A Pound of Flesh


Just a quick reminder, Gayle's [very erudite] Bard Blog is essaying Merchant of Venice, one of the English language's, first plays about finance and justice.  Yesterday she post this discussion on the classic expression a "pound of flesh", which is well worth reading--and a blog well-worth following!
