This second edition of Othello updates the first (Bristol Classical
Press, 1987), both chronologically and conceptually. It includes
consideration of productions from the last seventeen years, and
reconsiders earlier material in the light of more recent critical
attitudes. Post-colonial and feminist studies have had an impact on
the way Othello is perceived and interpreted. The question of
blacked-up/black/colour-blind casting and the significance of white
and/or black audiences in different political and racial contexts
have recently become much more clearly articulated. In the process,
Shakespeare himself has not escaped the charge of racism. Equally,
the position of Desdemona has received more focussed attention,
both as the forbidden object of desire within a racial framework,
and as a woman in her own right. This edition takes account of
these developments in criticism, in the theatre, on film, and in
the adaptations which set out to interrogate Shakespeare's text.
