== Jowitt's work==
Her work on the representation of outsiders such as Jews,〔http://www.tyndale.org/Reformation/4/jowitt4.html〕 Turks〔http://www.questia.com/googleScholar.qst;jsessionid=76856D14472266988C06337844735B6F.inst3_3b?docId=5001981472〕 and pirates〔http://us.macmillan.com/piratesthepoliticsofplunder15501650〕 in Renaissance literature and culture has cast light on the complex and contradictory nature of contemporary attitudes to "others". She argues that allegorical allusions to domestic English political issues are important as well as the dominant view that literary representations played an important role in the shaping of a national consciousness. Her examination of two early modern English "Turk" plays Lust's Dominion and The Turke notes the light they cast on the domestic concerns of the culture within which they were produced alongside their negative depiction of Islamic men and their contribution to contemporary anti-Muslim sentiment.〔http://www.questia.com/googleScholar.qst;jsessionid=76856D14472266988C06337844735B6F.inst3_3b?docId=5001981472〕
Likewise in her analysis of the development of the pirate romance at the end of the sixteenth century and beginning of the seventeenth, Jowitt notes the ambivalence of attitudes to the ideology and practice of piracy – maritime violence – in an England that was becoming known internationally as "a nation of pirates". She describes how the portrayal of piracy in contemporary literature became an index for other domestic concerns. She suggests that the depiction of pirates in Sir Philip Sydney's New Arcadia as in some respects acting little differently from any group of fighting men may reflect the ambivalence of English attitudes towards "men of action" like Sir Francis Drake. For Prince Musidorus, piracy and pirates are not condemned outright – if they can be serviceable to his cause, and are successful, then he supports them, in the same flexible way as Queen Elizabeth gave semi-official support to the "patriotic violence of Drake and Hawkins.〔http://projects.chass.utoronto.ca/emls/si-16/jowiarca.htm "Et in Arcadia Ego": The Politics of Pirates in the ''Old Arcadia'', ''New Arcadia'' and ''Urania'', Claire Jowitt, Early Modern Literary Studies Special Issue 16 (October 2007) 5.1–36〕
