Talking About Plays... Shakespeare and Orientalism: An Interview with Abdulla Al-Dabbagh
Exploring the politics and portrayal of the Other, Abdulla Al-Dabbagh, a professor of English Literature, analyses texts throughout Shakespeare's canon, including Othello, Romeo and Juliet, The Merchant of Venice, Antony and Cleopatra, Hamlet and King Lear.
He considers how Shakespeare occupies the space between contemporary and classic, why the supernatural in his work can be described as 'Orientalism', and the globalism of the Renaissance.
