Description

Norman Sanders provides a full analysis of the textual problem and theories of transmission of Othello, and presents possible solutions to the stylistic and racial issues which face modern readers and spectators. For this updated edition, Scott McMillin has added a new section on the key events in both scholarship and theatre since the 1980s including political, feminist and postcolonial treatments in various parts of the world. A detailed description of performances of the play on stage, film and television tackles the issue of black/white casting of the main characters.
