À propos de cet audio
Shakespeare's brilliant mind did more than craft timeless plays—it built cultural fortifications. Through his 1604 masterpiece "Othello, the Moor of Venice," Shakespeare introduced Western audiences to Islam while simultaneously establishing boundaries against its influence. The play's memorable line "I hate the Moor" quickly became London's viral sensation, a cultural shorthand for resistance against what Shakespeare perceived as fundamentally anti-human religious principles.
The podcast examines the theological appropriation that occurred when Islam incorporated Jesus of Nazareth and Abraham as Muslim figures. Appropriation and revision extended beyond personages to sacred spaces, most notably the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The building of a mosque on the Temple Mount represented an erasure of previous religious history.
The Holy Trinity is appropriation and revision of Jesus of Nazareth by Christians. It would be hypocritical of a Christian to lambast Muslims. Shakespeare was a humanist.
