Written more than 400 years ago,&amp;nbsp;Volpone&amp;nbsp;uses deception, ambition and dark humour to expose how greed can make people sacrifice their dignity, relationships and even their principles. The play’s characters compete for a fortune, but its message reaches far beyond the world of 17th-century Venice. It asks us to consider whether people remain honest when money, power and personal gain are at stake. Rishi Nagar reflects on why&amp;nbsp;Volpone&amp;nbsp;continues to resonate today—and the uncomfortable question it leaves behind:&amp;nbsp;If great wealth came at the cost of our values, how much would we be willing to sacrifice?
