摘　　要：莎士比亚至少有5部作品涉及了非洲人形象书写,但以《奥瑟罗》中的奥瑟罗形象最为成功。莎翁在这部作品中,刻意将既值得颂扬又应该批判的奥瑟罗形象纳入剧本并对其进行艺术处理,莎翁种族观的两重性在这个"他者"形象上显露无遗。莎翁通过歌颂奥瑟罗英雄形象,试图扭转17世纪英国人对非洲人的偏见和种族歧视,在彰显其伟大的人文主义精神的同时,还刻画了奥瑟罗在寻求白人主流文化认同之旅中的兴奋与彷徨,作者潜意识里欧洲白人的种族优越感流露在剧本字里行间之中。At least five of William Shakespeare＇s plays write about the image of Africans, and the image of Othello in the play Othello is the most successful. Shakespeare portrays the image of Othello artistically—both celebrating and criticizing, thus the duality of his racial concept is clearly revealed by this ＂other＂image. By celebrating the heroic image of Othello, Shakespeare tries to reverse the prejudice and racial discrimination against Africans in the 17 th century Britain, which shows his great humanism. He also portrays Othello＇s excitement and hesitation while seeking a cultural identity with the white mainstream culture, thus his white European superiority is subconsciously woven between the lines in the script.
