"The Island Princess" is a tragicomic romance set in the Spice
Islands of Indonesia. Fletcher rewrites Shakespeare's "The Tempest"
through the encounter of Islam and Christianity and the fierce
European competition for wealth at the farthest reaches of empire.
The play also stages the degeneration of religious tolerance into
fanaticism. This ground-breaking edition explores the play in its
gendered, political, social and religious contexts whilst also
finding its resonances for a twenty-first century audience. The
critical introduction and on-page commentary notes create an ideal
teaching text giving a comprehensive account of the play from both
literary and performance perspectives.
