Introduction: Barbarous African, Barbarous English, and the Transactions of Race -- ClassicalPrecedents -- Race in Perspective -- Barbarian Genealogies -- Instructing the English Nation -- Shakespeare's Africans: Performing Cultural Whiteness -- Epilogue: Imperialism's Legacy, orthe "Languageof the Criminal".

"During the English Renaissance, the figure of the classical barbarian - identified by ineloquent speech that marked him as a cultural outsider - was recovered for stereotyping Africans. This book advances the idea that language, and not only color and religion, functioned as an important racial code. This study also reveals that way in which England's strategic projection of a "barbarous" language was meant to enhance its own image at the expense of the early modern African. Ian Smith makes use of the sixteenth-century preoccupation with language rehabilitation to tell the larger storyof an anxious nation redirecting attentionaway from its own marginal, minority status by racial scapegoating."--BOOK JACKET.
