Exploring the connections between language, slavery, and place, this book spans from the Portuguese enslavement of Africans to representations of slavery in Shakespeare's works and President Obama's 2012 speech on modern slavery. Through a blend of close textual analysis and historical context, it provides fresh perspectives on themes of otherness, rhetoric, and stereotyping, enriching the discourse on these critical issues.
