Title: Shakespeare's invention of Othello
Description: Did Shakespeare succeed in his characterisation of Othello? Or is the noble but degraded Moor psychologically implausible? This book enters an old controversy in a new way. Martin Elliott takes fully into account the fact that Shakespeare was writing in Early Modern English and explores word-meanings and syntax and finds an extended consistency.
