Was the Prince of Morocco in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice a Muslim? His faith is never overtly referenced, but Portia judges him poorly based on his "complexion," a term that refers to skin colour and temperament. Does temperament = religion in this play? #shakerace

That makes a lot of sense. So Portia is rejecting an inter-faith union just as much as she is rejecting an inter-racial union! This helps me so much. My article was not working because I was only dealing with the race element of the union.

The whole play is about interfaith rejections and also of making religious difference visible via raicialization.
