Summary
"A landmark collection of essays from leading international scholars offering a variety of perspectives on Othello. In recent years, work on Othello has engaged every scholarly interest: textual studies, historicism, feminism, gender and sexuality studies, critical race studies, post-colonial studies, reception studies, and more. The essays in this volume are based in scrupulous close reading, are historically informed, are theoretically sophisticated, taking Othello in new directions and giving students a wide range of routes into the play for their continuing study"--
