I have taught it several times, with and without _Othello_, and I recommend it highly.

I plan to start with Shakespeare's play. And then go onto a novel that retells the Othello story in the context of 20th century Senegal. -- Would anyone know of the name of the novelist and the title of the novel? -- Would the writer be Ousmane Sembene? -- If I am mistaken can anyone suggest another novel that has reworked this story? -- Also, can anyone suggest any poetry written in 19th century US on themes of race that could fit in with the Othello story? Thanks in advance, Nandita --- from list postcolonial-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- --- from list postcolonial-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
