The Moor in English Renaissance Drama

By Jack D'Amico

D'Amico writes that when he lived in Lebanon and Morocco he taught plays such as Othello to students who, no doubt, would have been considered Moors by Shakespeare's contemporaries. His experience as an outsider trying to understand another culture shapes this work about the boundaries of perception set by race, religion and custom and about the boundaries of the imagination.
