This paper discusses the way in which John Fletcher`s The Island Princess (1620-1) imagines a successful landing of an adventuring Jacobean man on his racial Other`s territory in terms of his sexual conquest and religious conversion of a willful Moluccan princess. The paper aims to explore how the play attempts to establish white masculine supremacy by reconfiguring "honor" in collusion with the contemporary discourses of gender and racial differences, and how in so doing the play reveals the (proto-)colonial mercantile system in making in the early seventeenth century. The paper concludes that the play ends up destabilizing, rather than consolidating, the white masculine supremacy that it sets out to promote, because the white man`s honor is shown to depend primarily on the non-white woman`s fluid and convertible body that he comes to possess. It is Quisara the Moluccan Princess`s immensely strong will to turn to desire fully and change completely that conditions and legitimizes Armusia the white protagonist`s subject position along with his socio-economic achievements in the play. Furthermore, the play`s positive representation of an alien woman`s conversion apparently contradicts the dominant discourse of the time against feminine impurity and changeability. Quisara`s submission to Armusia therefore does not simply endorse the superiority of a white masculine self, and Fletcher`s dramatization ironically confirms that while strenuously struggling to subdue female will to turn, masculine narratives cannot reproduce themselves unless they fully acknowledge and utilize ever-turning women.
