ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This book could not have happened, and happened so deliciously, without the professional and personal support of many institutions, colleagues, and friends, to which and to whom I am much indebted.
Crucial work on this project has been funded by two Rutgers University Research Council Summer Fellowships (1988, 1989) and encouraged by the FAS Office of the Dean. I have also benefited from the resources of the Folger Shakespeare Library and the kindnesses of its staff. Parts of Chapter 2 have appeared in "Making More of the Moor: Aaron, Othello, and Renaissance Refashionings of Race," Shakespeare Quarterly 41 (1990) and "Imperialist Beginnings: Richard Hakluyt and the Construction of Africa," Criticism 34 (1992), parts of Chapter 3 in "The Double Vision of the East: Imperialist Self-Construction in Marlowe's Tamburlaine, Part One," Renaissance Drama 23 (1992), and are reprinted in revised form by permission of Shakespeare Quarterly, Wayne State University Press, and Northwestern University Press, respectively. Chapter 4 first took shape as an MLA talk given to the Marlowe Society, which has remained a receptive audience, and as an essay, ''Malta, the Jew, and the Fictions of Difference: Colonialist Discourse in Marlowe's The Jew of Malta" in English Literary Renaissance 20 (1990) :116. I am especially indebted to the editorsArthur Kinney, Mary Beth Rose, Barbara Mowat, and Arthur Marottifor their continued interest in my work. Some of the early groundwork for Chapter s appeared in
