Rezension zu „Shakespeare, 'Othello' and Domestic Tragedy “
"Sean Benson's Shakespeare, Othello and Domestic Tragedy is a sensitive rereading of a curiously neglected topic in Shakespeare studies.Benson's lucid and convincing investigation makes a series of important arguments about contemporary domestic tragedies and their relation to Othello.In the process, the author sheds fresh light on Othello itself and on the question of textual and generic influence in general." -- Brian W. Shaffer, Associate Dean of Academic Affairs and Professor of English at Rhodes College, USA "Sean Benson's exploration of Othello is the first full-length study of the play in the context of domestic tragedy. It presents an invigorating challenge to established readings, showing how Othello focuses on issues present in other domestic tragedies of the period ... All in all, a critical work which makes you think again about things you took for granted." -- Keverne Smith, former Course Director, BA Humanities, University Centre, College of West Anglia, King's Lynn, UK Benson rightly argues against a conception of a genre as a "static norm" (p. 28) in favor of a view that leaves room for experimentation and change over time. -- Garrett A. Sullivan Jr. Studies in English Literature 1500-1900
