N2  - "Mesure pour mesure" by William Shakespeare is a play written in 1603 or 1604. When Vienna's Duke secretly disguises himself as a friar to observe his city, he watches his puritanical deputy Angelo enforce long-neglected laws with brutal severity. Angelo sentences young Claudio to death for fornication, then propositions Claudio's virtuous sister Isabella with a corrupt bargain: her virginity for her brother's life. What follows involves deception, substitution, and moral complexity that blurs the line between comedy and tragedy in this provocative exploration of justice, mercy, and hypocrisy.
