Turks, Moors, And Englishmen In The Age Of Discovery
Attribution
Nabil MatarPublication Details
BookColumbia University Press1999Links
Description
During the early modern period, hundreds of Turks and Moors traded in English and Welsh ports, dazzled English society with exotic cuisine and Arabian horses, and worked small jobs in London, while the “Barbary Corsairs” raided coastal towns and, if captured, lingered in Plymouth jails or stood trial in Southampton courtrooms. Although Matar notes the sharp political and colonial differences between the English encounter with the Muslims and their encounter with the Indians, he shows how Elizabethan and Stuart writers articulated Muslim in terms of Indian, and Indian in terms of Muslim.
