Measure for Measure, a play by William Shakespeare believed to be written around 1603 or 1604, is often classified as a comedy but is known for its complex and contrasting mood, leading some critics to label it a problem play. First performed in 1604 and published in the 1623 First Folio, the play explores themes of mercy, justice, and truth, examining how they relate to pride and humility.
