The Moor of Venice, Cinthio’s Tale, and Shakespeare’s Tragedy is a book written by John Edward Taylor in 1855. The book is a study of Shakespeare’s play Othello, which is based on the Italian writer Cinthio’s novella, Un Capitano Moro (A Moorish Captain). The book examines the similarities and differences between Shakespeare’s play and Cinthio’s tale, and how Shakespeare adapted the story to create his own masterpiece. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a detailed analysis of Cinthio’s novella, including its plot, themes, and characters. The second part focuses on Shakespeare’s play, examining its sources, structure, language, and themes. Taylor argues that Shakespeare’s Othello is a more complex and nuanced work than Cinthio’s novella, and that Shakespeare’s portrayal of Othello is more sympathetic and nuanced than Cinthio’s portrayal of the Moor. Overall, The Moor of Venice, Cinthio’s Tale, and Shakespeare’s Tragedy is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Shakespeare’s Othello, as well as for scholars of Renaissance literature and drama. The book provides a thorough and insightful analysis of the play and its sources, and sheds light on the creative process that went into the making of one of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
