English Coursework
Othello's tragic flaw is his jealousy. His feelings of inadequacy are felt sharply though his colour and the fact that he does not actually belong in Venice. He is an outsider, and although he is eloquent and brave he doesn't feel that he is part of that society in the way he should be. He does have respect: when he tells the people to put up their arms in Act 1 Scene 2, they listen to him and do as he says.
