description: In order to suggest a paradigm of predominant attitudes toward the African at the beginnings of English intercontinental exploration, international commerce, colonial attempts, and participation in the European slave trade, Mangum (English, Bennett College) considers depictions of the African as Other in English poetry and drama of the 16th and early 17th centuries. She has chosen the selections to illustrate the common features with different emphases and contextual interpretations. The text is double spaced. Annotation c.
