520 _a"Measure for Measure" by William Shakespeare is a play written in 1603 or 1604. When Vienna's Duke leaves the city in disguise to observe his deputy's rule, the puritan Angelo enforces forgotten laws with brutal severity. A young man faces execution for fornication, and his sister Isabella, a novice nun, pleads for mercy. Angelo makes a shocking proposition that tests her virtue and faith. Through deception, disguise, and moral dilemmas, this darkly comic work explores justice, hypocrisy, and the corrupting nature of power. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
