Othello Iago Iii Ll

Othello is one of Shakespeare's four great
tragedies and thus a pillar of what most critics
take to be the apex of Shakespeare's dramatic art.
Indeed, a central thematic strand of the play is
trust, honor, and reputation. The theme of honor
and reputation intertwines with those of
perception and trust. In the plays second act,
Iago tells Othello that Brabantio? prated, /And
spoke such scurvy and provoking terms/ Against
your honor. (I, ii. ll. 6 - 8). To this, the
proven hero of Venice replies, ...

A puppet master is in complete control over his
puppet. But only after years of studying and
observation does this special interaction of
complete control occur. The master soon speaks for
the puppet, acts for the puppet, and feels for the
puppet. A similar manipulative situation arises
between Iago and Othello in Shakespeare's Othello.
Iago's clever application of parallelism, rhyme,
and metaphor play a key role in his devilish
scheme. He wishes to manipulate Othello's
emotions; thus creating a...

Black And White Othello And Desdemona
975 words
Although there are lots of things to suggest this
is a racist play I dont think that racism actually
dominates the play, even though it has a racist
theme. There is a romantic union between black and
white which gets destroyed because most people
think the relationship is wrong. At the time the
play was written, 1604, even the Queen of England
was racist so there must have been a strong hatred
of blacks around that time. Most racist comments
in the play are said by people that are angry or
upset...

Iago Plan Act Three Scene
2,352 words
My first impressions of the play as a whole were
that it was quite predictable and straightforward.
As the play continues there is a huge climax so,
of course, I was expecting a really unexpected
twist and Iago to be discovered. Since Iago has
created mistrust between most of the characters
you expect him to be caught out. As this happens,
it just shows how predictable the play is. The end
is more realistic and this makes it much sadder.
By Othello killing himself I think that this means
he coul...
