Abstract

Abstract:While Robert Daborne's A Christian Turned Turk (1612) is best known for its treatment of a Christian exile's conversion to Islam, it opens with a nuanced critique of early Jacobean economic policy, one wedged into a debate between captive merchants and famous pirates. Daborne's play makes use of a scene of negotiation, a debate over the impressment of two Frenchmen, not only to destabilize the commercial standards that would have distinguished "merchant-like" dealing from piracy, but also, more importantly, to articulate a shift in English economic thought toward a form of free-market capitalism, as exemplified onstage by the pirates.

罗伯特·达伯恩的《从基督徒变成土耳其人》中的海盗经济学

摘要:罗伯特·达伯恩的《从基督徒转向土耳其人》(1612)以描写一位基督徒流亡者皈依伊斯兰教而闻名，但该书开篇对詹姆士一世早期的经济政策进行了细致入微的批判，切入了俘虏商人和著名海盗之间的辩论。达伯恩的戏剧利用了一场谈判的场景，一场关于两个法国人印象的辩论，不仅破坏了区分“商人式”交易与海盗行为的商业标准，而且更重要的是，阐明了英国经济思想向自由市场资本主义形式的转变，就像舞台上海盗的例子一样。

The editors select learned, readable papers that contribute significantly to the understanding of British literature from 1500 to 1900. SEL is well known for thecommissioned omnibus review of recent studies in the field that is included in each issue. In a single volume, readers might find an argument for attributing a previously unknown work to Shakespeare or de-attributing a famous work from Milton, a study ofthe connections between class and genre in the Restoration Theater.
