Shakespeare presents Iago as a manipulative deceitful villain in act III scene III. Do you think he has intended Othello to be seen by audiences as being as much to blame for his demise as Iago?
The tragedy Othello is a story based on the character Othello and the jealousy of him and the characters around him. In the play the character Iago manipulates Othello into believing his wife Desdemona is being unfaithful with Cassio. Iago is seemed to be doing this because of the jealousy he has of Othello and Cassio because earlier on in the play your find that Othello has made Cassio his llieutenant instead to Iago. I will be looking at racism, the power of the handkerchief, tragedy, Iago's language and how Othello changes throughout the scene. There are also a few themes throughout the play, like Iagos constant reference to animals; I will be looking at a few of these.
A tragic story is not necessarily a tragedy. A tragedy is said to be inevitable, a tragedy is said to happen by a flaw in a persons character and bringing him from his high power to his shocking death. The experience of a tragedy is said to stimulate the audience with intense emotions including pity and fear when they share the experience of the main characters. Othello's flaw was jealousy or "the green eyed monster" He was a great man with high power who came to a horrible death. We gave him pity, feared for him and both loved and hated the character. I believe that the story of Othello is indeed a tragedy, and the outcome was inevitable and unavoidable.
