In this highly entertaining study, De Sousa argues that Shakespeare
reinterprets, refashions and reinscribes his alien characters -
Jews, Moors, Amazons and gypsies. In this way, the dramatist
questions the narrowness of a European perspective which
caricatures other societies and views them with suspicion. De Sousa
examines how Shakespeare defines other cultures in terms of the
interplay of gender, text and habitat. Written in a provocative
style, this readable book provides a wealth of fascinating
information both on contemporary stage productions and on race and
gender relations in early modern Europe.
