The Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare and Race shows teachers and
students how and why Shakespeare and race are inseparable. Moving
well beyond Othello, the collection invites the reader to
understand racialized discourses, rhetoric, and performances in all
of Shakespeare's plays, including the comedies and histories. Race
is presented through an intersectional approach with chapters that
focus on the concepts of sexuality, lineage, nationality, and
globalization. The collection helps students to grapple with the
unique role performance plays in constructions of race by
Shakespeare (and in Shakespearean performances), considering both
historical and contemporary actors and directors. The Cambridge
Companion to Shakespeare and Race will be the first book that truly
frames Shakespeare studies and early modern race studies for a
non-specialist, student audience.
