I am deeply grateful to friends at the department of English at the University of Jaén, and especially to Doctors Yolanda Caballero Aceituno, Eroulla Demetriou, Luciano García García, Mª Paz López-Peláez Casellas, Jesús Manuel Nieto García, José Ruiz Mas, Cinta Zunino Garrido, members of the research project “Musulmanes, españoles y judíos en los textos pre-modernos en lengua inglesa: la construcción del otro” (“Muslims, Spaniards and Jews in Early Modern English Texts: The Construction of the Other”). My special thanks go to Professor John Drakakis who assisted me during the development of part of the present dissertation and who widened my knowledge on the early modern period during my academic stay at the University of Stirling (UK). I am likewise thankful to Professor Jüri Talvet, who kindly helped me during my second academic stay at the University of Tartu (Estonia). Finally, my greatest debt is to my husband, my mother, my grandparents and to my thesis supervisor, Professor Jesús López-Peláez Casellas, who helped me in more ways than anyone can even fathom. This dissertation is dedicated to them; their generosity, infinite patience and faith in my efforts more than anything else kept me going while a student at the university; without their constant motivation this work would not have been possible. viii INTRODUCTION Introduction Outline The purpose of the present dissertation is to analyse the representation of Spaniards, Moors and women in early modern English discourses. The main objectives of this study are to determine the rhetoric strategies employed for such representations; to establish how the presence of these individuals poses an element of anxiety in early modern England; to demonstrate that not all the discourses about these subjects were negative (since the attitude towards them depended on political and economic interests); and to support ideas about the importance of alterity in the formation of Western identities. Our last objective will be to elaborate an original critical edition of Lust’s Dominion (c. 1600), by Thomas Dekker. With this contribution we seek to offer a relatively unexplored and seldom edited source, which shows how identities were taking shape during the early modern period together with a growing rejection of (political and “racial”) strangers. In the present dissertation, words such as Other(s), alien(s) or stranger(s) will be employed interchangeably to describe elements which are alien to an individual or community, rather than a mere national foreign element. Particularly, the word Other will be capitalized and used as a substantive in order to distinguish it from the determiner, adjective or pronoun “other.” We will seek to separate different (intersecting) groups of strangers, including political or national Others, that is, the foreign 3 4 Spaniards, Moors and Women in Early Modern Discourses enemies of a given nation, such as Spain, from the English perspective; “racial” Others,1 that is, those who, from our point of view are considered (truthfully or not) as having a different complexion, and who are rejected for this reason (especially black individuals in a white community); religious Others, those considered different for their religion (or alleged lack of religion); and domestic Others, that is, internal political enemies, such as renegades, bastards, and, from a patriarchal point of view, gendered strangers, that is, women. Introduction Today, we have at our disposal a limited (but growing) number of critical works that approach the study of alterity, as the characterization of subjects described as “Others,” during the early modern period (1485- 1660). Such individuals were usually represented as the inhabitants of the “periphery” of those societies that consider themselves as physically and morally more “central”; that is, the “civilization.” However, at the moment, contemporary literary criticism has been mainly limited to the study of the Ottoman Turk, the Jew, or the Spaniard, often disregarding other ex-centric or marginal minorities, especially if they embody different “alterities”: North Africans and Spaniards, or (Catholic) women, among others. Consequently, the present work will mainly focus on the connections among national (or political), ethnic, 1 Throughout the present dissertation, the words associated with the concept of “race” will be placed within commas since we agree with the idea that human beings cannot be scientifically distinguished for their “race” or complexion in the same way that we cannot establish a clear-cut cluster of individuals on the grounds of their heights, body mass, and so on. Introduction 5 religious, gendered and domestic Others, and on the association of these individuals from the early modern English perspective. We will focus on the Western perspective towards the figure of the “Moor,”1 whose image is not only “racial,” since in this period they could be associated with national and religious “strangers” (a term popularized during the seventies by Leslie Fiedler) and even with domestic and gendered Others. Likewise, we will suggest that, among the various and relatively numerous dramatic works dealing with Muslim or Morisco topics, those in which there is a combination of these cultures with the Spanish Catholic one could be particularly relevant for the study of the formation of English (and, in a wider scope, Western) identities. In fact, this construction took shape in a historical context where the Spanish, Moroccan and Ottoman societies were the most influencing and internationally recognized economic and political forces of the period. Finally, we will analyze how in various discourses concerning women and other domestic strangers in England (such as the so-called “renegados” or the underprivileged groups) we encounter a reproduction of the negative image of the foreign Other. In this way, we will study how, from the early-modern period, such discourses would eventually affect the image of the forigner as well as that of domestic and gendered Others in England and in the Western world. 1 In spite of the negative connotations associated with words such as “Moor,” “black,” “renegade,” “heathen” or “bastard,” they will not be employed derogatorily, but as a way to use and analyse the early modern epithet to describe these individuals. We will employ the word Moor, in order to identify an otherwise undefined group of individuals and societies, which, as we will argue later on, were mainly associated with features such as blackness or heathenism (often, independently from their actual complexion or religion). 6 Spaniards, Moors and Women in Early Modern Discourses Since we start from the hypothesis that the early modern period will act as a liminal space (in the sense that Homi Bhabha provides) in the creation of early modern English (and eventually Western) identities, and since the idea that the role of Spain, being influenced by the muslim culture, could be pivotal in this process, the present work will seek to provide an interdisciplinary approximation to the study of otherness. As a textual materialisation of this critical perspective, we will provide a critical edition of the dramatic work by Thomas Dekker, Lust’s Dominion (c. 1600). In this edition, accompained by an analysis of the work, we will present an innovative study on the figure of Muley Xeque, Prince of Morocco (1566-1621), whom we will propose as the probable model for the creation of the “racial” and political Other protagonist of the play, the Moor Eleazar.

The author seeks to show how a bridge can be established between these two concepts, which may at first appear distant, by focusing on certain under-discussed aspects of rites of passage. He argues that the ‘liminal’ phase of rites of passage is tied to the ambiguity brought about through the isolation and individualization of the initiate.

    05-Bell-45471.qxd 1/11/2008 3:56 PM Page 115 CHAPTER 5 Performing Culture Theory in Perspective: How Do Cultures Perform? nthropology, sociology, and even psychology in the mid-nineteenth cen- tury took “the study of man” as their central concern. The guiding A method for these new academic areas was positivism, the belief that cov- ering laws of human organization could be discovered through direct observation. This perspective maintains that the universe is orderly, and the job of scientific inquiry is to discover this order and classify it in systematic ways. Charles Darwin’s work on evolution was an important model for researchers in the social sciences who searched for origins in the “evolution” of culture. Theories of the evolution of culture are interwoven with the study of religion. Three schools of theory emerged in the nineteenth century—myth and ritual, soci- ological, and psychological—all asking the question, Did religion originate in myth or ritual? Mircea Eliade was interested in the phenomenology of religious experi- ence and how myths and rituals are expressions of both the sacred and the profane in culture that provide unity for people. The sociological school, led by Emile Durkheim, maintained that religion is a social creation whose function is to pre- serve the welfare of a society. Sigmund Freud anchored the psychological approach: taboos of incest and patricide necessitate rituals that appease repressed desires. Across these approaches, performance was studied for its window into larger cultural structures, like religion, politics, economics, language, and identity (Beeman 1993). When specific performance genres were studied (like rites, rituals, games, contests, dance, and music), performance was often seen as a fixed, static product, evidence of cross-cultural similarities, and indicative of universal needs and expressions.

MILLER* INTRODUCTION Rituals-ceremonies of birth, death, marriage, initiation, healing, har- vest, or religious observance-are found in all known cultures, and appear to have been performed for tens of thousands of years. They speak to peo- ple's core emotions and reveal values that a society holds dearest. Because their expression is conventional and obligatory, they join the individual in solidarity with the group. As such, they are part of a society's "essential constitution."' These general functions of ritual reveal an obvious similarity to law. Law also joins the individual in solidarity with the group. It also imposes on people certain conventional and obligatory forms of behavior. And, like ritual, law is part of the essential constitution of human societies-a set of shared understandings about how political power is to be allocated among, and exercised by, the members of a given social organization.

  • Why Was Edward De Vere Defamed on Stage—And His Death Unnoticed?
    Why Was Edward de Vere Defamed on Stage—and His Death Unnoticed? by Katherine Chiljan dward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, died on June 24, 1604. To our knowledge, there was neither public recognition of his death nor Enotice made in personal letters or diaries. His funeral, if one oc- curred, went unremarked. Putting aside his greatness as the poet-playwright “William Shakespeare,” his pen name, Oxford was one of the most senior nobles in the land and the Lord Great Chamberlain of England. During his life, numerous authors dedicated 27 books on diverse subjects to Oxford; of these authors, seven were still alive at the time of his death,1 including John Lyly and Anthony Munday, his former secretaries who were also dramatists. Moreover, despite the various scandals that touched him, Oxford remained an important courtier throughout his life: Queen Elizabeth granted him a £1,000 annuity in 1586 for no stated reason—an extraordinary gesture for the frugal monarch—and King James continued this annuity after he ascend- ed the throne in 1603. Why, then, the silence after Oxford had died? Could the answer be because he was a poet and playwright? Although such activity was considered a déclassé or even fantastical hobby for a nobleman, recognition after death would have been socially acceptable. For example, the courtier poet Sir Philip Sidney (d. 1586) had no creative works published in his lifetime, but his pastoral novel, Arcadia, was published four years after his death, with Sidney’s full name on the title page. Three years after that, Sidney’s sister, the Countess of Pembroke, published her own version of it.

Senior Theses, Trinity College, Hartford, CT 2013. Trinity College Digital Repository, https://digitalrepository.trincoll.edu/theses/350 The telling of the Navajo creation myth begins with the appearance of the “The People” from the three underworlds and into this, the “Glittering World”, through a magic reed. Unlike human beings, “The People” were animals and masked spirits. Then came the appearance of the first man, Altse Hastiin, from the Dark World created in the east through the meeting of the white and black clouds. “The young man who walks in the darkness, may it be made as offering to him, may it be made as offering to him.” Then, Alse Asdzaa, the first woman arrives from the Dark World, made by the meeting of the yellow and blue clouds in the west. The people from the three underworlds met in the first house and began the arranging of the world. For the Navajo, this myth marks the beginning of time as they understand it and explains how the world is perceived and even lays the groundwork for ritual.
