N2  - "Othello in European Culture argues that a focus on the European reception of Othello represents an important contribution to critical work on the play. The chapters in this volume examine non-anglophone translations and performances, alternative ways of distinguishing between texts, adaptations and versions, as well as differing perspectives on questions of gender and race.

The volume illustrates the ways in which Othello has been not only a stimulus but also a challenge for European Shakespeares.
