Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book explores the specter of Christian conversion to Islam in twelve early modern English plays. In works by Shakespeare, Marlowe, Massinger, and others, conversion from Christianity to Islam is represented as both tragic and erotic a fate worse than death as well as a sexual seduction. Degenhardt examines the stages treatment of this intercourse of faiths to reveal connections between sexuality, race, and confessional identity in early modern English drama and culture.
