Description:
A study of tragedies, comedies, romances, and histories, this book examines the dynamic interplay of three concepts—gender, text, and habitat—as metaphors for cross-cultural definition. De Sousa argues that by refashioning stage aliens such as Jews, Moors, Amazons, and gypsies, Shakespeare interrogates a Eurocentric perspective and the caricatures cultures create of one another. Writing in an accessible, compelling style, de Sousa recovers a wealth of information on race and gender relations in early modern Europe.
