The structure of the novel moves between Emilia's own reminiscences and details of Emilia's life, birth and upbringing told through the voice of the family confessor. Emilia is from Chioggia, one of lagoon islands of Venice. She is betrothed to and marries Ensign Iago, the famous villain of Shakespeare's play, Othello. The story moves between the Doge's prison in Venice and the events leading up to Emilia's arrest for treason against the Venetian state. The descriptions of Chioggia, Venice and Cyprus are true to the layout of those sites from the 1600's and for the most part, today. Only slight changes are made to Shakespeare's storyline to develop the character of Emilia, the outspoken woman who ultimately exposes Iago's intrigue. The novel is set in the 1600's in Venice. A possible treason has taken place in Cyprus. The woman wounded in Cyprus, Emilia, is taken under guard to the prison in the Doge's palace in Venice accused of treachery against the Republic. Emilia is the sole survivor of the murders and suicide that have shaken the Republic and she is implicated for her role in the plot. It is clear that politics will engineer the outcome of Emilia's trial.

Shakespeare and the Italian Renaissance investigates the works of Shakespeare and his fellow dramatists from within the context of the European Renaissance and, more specifically, from within the context of Italian cultural, dramatic, and literary traditions, with reference to the impact and influence of classical, coeval, and contemporary culture. In contrast to previous studies, the critical perspectives pursued in this volume’s tripartite organization take into account a wider European intertextual dimension and, above all, an ideological interpretation of the 'aesthetics' or 'politics' of intertextuality. Contributors perceive the presence of the Italian world in early modern England not as a traditional treasure trove of influence and imitation, but as a potential cultural force, consonant with complex processes of appropriation, transformation, and ideological opposition through a continuous dialectical interchange of compliance and subversion.
