Shakespeare's protagonists Othello and Hamlet are
for the most part, completely unalike in the ways
that they handle the many emotions thrown at them
in their respective plays. Othello is the victim
of a twisted villain; Hamlet bears a distinct
solitude and has a tendency to procrastinate.
Othello is a story centered on the manipulations
of an insecure newlywed, while Hamlet is centered
on an idealistic avenger of justice. Hamlet is
smarter, and with maybe the exception of his
confidante Horatio...

determining element in their experience was not so
much what happened to them but how they took it.
