Affinity and Polarity in Shakespeare's 'Othello' - Analyzing the 'Otherness' With Respect to Protestant England

Zusatztext

Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,3, University of Stuttgart, language: English, abstract: William Shakespeare's works are known for their tendency to address foreign culture and religion. In "Othello", the effects of a confrontation between protestant England and the newly-civilized moor are demonstrated through intrigues and mistrust. In this term paper I want to highlight the effects of this confrontation. Moreover, I want to address the tragedy of misunderstanding between foregin cultures and false preachers.
