Shakespeare and Venice is the first book length study to describe
and chronicle the mythology of Venice that was formulated in the
Middle Ages and has persisted in fiction and film to the present
day. Graham Holderness focuses specifically on how that mythology
was employed by Shakespeare to explore themes of conversion,
change, and metamorphosis. Identifying and outlining the materials
having to do with Venice which might have been available to
Shakespeare, Holderness provides a full historical account of past
and present Venetian myths and of the city's relationship with both
Judaism and Islam. Holderness also provides detailed readings of
both The Merchant of Venice and of Othello against these mythical
and historical dimensions, and concludes with discussion of
Venice's relevance to both the modern world and to the past.
