In "The Merchant of Venice," Lancelot Gobbo, the comic servant, faces mistreatment primarily from his employer, Shylock, who treats him poorly and with disdain. Lancelot feels undervalued and oppressed in Shylock's household, prompting him to leave and seek employment with Bassanio. His plight highlights the themes of servitude and social hierarchy in the play, showcasing the struggles of those in lower social positions. Despite his comedic role, Lancelot's experiences reflect a deeper commentary on mistreatment and loyalty.
