“Following Balibar's diagnosis, I argue⟳ here that Shakespeare's Othello provides a canonical articulation of this protoracism insofar as the play⟳ fashions the Muslim in the image of the Jew according to the protocols of Pauline exegesis; in Balibar's terms, Othello stages a "culturalist" rather than a biologistic ordering of intergroup relations, a religiously grounded discourse barely visible from the vantage point⟳ of the modern racial theories that have⟳ since displaced it, yet intermittently readable in the strange light⟳ of the neoracism that has emerged in recent years.”
