    Creative Writing: Queen Elizabeth I

    Ten more guards filed into the room to surround the queen. She didn't move her suit an inch. She just beared her golden teeth in a grin, and fixed her tiny eyes on Catherine. A guard finally broke the silence and fired a tranquiliser dart for the Queen's neck. But he should have known better. It was deflected by the suit's automatic shield and deflected straight back at him. He'd made a mistake. He'd enraged the beast. She stuck her arms up straight and thin metal thorns shot out of her torso, impaling the circle of guards. They were dead before they hit the ground. She grinned again. She hadn't drawn blood since the revolution of ten years ago. It felt good. She stepped forward over the top of the Duchess. Suddenly Prince Charles and George burst into the room. “Mother!” Charles cried. “What the heavens has gone on he-”…

    Examples Of Eulogy For Othello

    When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. To me, Othello was the living validation of this quote from the Holy Bible. Othello, a noble man to us all, an admirable leader to our army, a valuable friend to everyone, and a doting brother to myself. Citizens of Venice, fellow Venetian army, most humble duke, and gracious God above, it is with great sorrow that I, Michael Cassio, as his former officer and the leader of the Venetian army, stand here today to bid farewell to a man such as him who breathed his last far too early; For Venice has lost not only a well respected leader and significant member in our community, but also a friend. The Venetian army will no longer have an admirable commander like him to cherish for not only the valiant battles, but also the integrity. He was truly like the lion in our animal kingdom, with unwavering heroism and nobility which he passed down to us.…

Reading it carefully as if the words themselves would run off the pages. “The witches met me on the day of my victory in battle, and I have learned that they have supernatural knowledge. When I tried desperately to question them further, they vanished into thin air. While I stood spellbound, messengers from the king arrived and greeted me as the Thane of Cawdor, which is precisely how the weird sisters had saluted me before calling me ’the future king!'…

    How does Iago manipulate Othello in Act 3?

    When Desdemona advocates on Cassio's behalf, she initiates the first real conversation she has had with her husband throughout the play. She also displays her strong, generous, and independent personality. In addition to his burgeoning suspicion, Othello's moodiness may also result from his dislike of Desdemona herself. Only once Desdemona has left does Othello recover somewhat: "Excellent wretch!" he says affectionately. "Perdition catch my soul, But I do love thee, and when I love thee not, Chaos is come again".…

    Othello Close Reading

    In the play, Othello, by William Shakespeare, a character named Iago, manipulates people to get what he wants. One character that is manipulated the most by Iago is Othello. The reason why is because Othello made Cassio his lieutenant and there were rumors that Othello has been sleeping around with his wife, Emilia. Iago involves Desdemona, Othello’s wife, in his plan by making it seem that Desdemona and Cassio are having a relationship. Iago convinces Othello about this relationship when Othello gets the ocular proof that he wanted. This evidence was that Cassio had the handkerchief that he had given to Desdemona as a first gift. Othello and Iago made a promise to each other that Othello will kill Desdemona and Iago will kill Cassio. Up to this point in the story Othello thought that Cassio is dead; now he will have to kill Desdemona. In Othello’s opening speech in Act 5 Scene 2, Othello feels the need to kill Desdemona but still feels doubt on whether he should do it as it is presented in his speech by literary meanings and devices.…

    Othello Act 1 Summary

    Othello still very much affected about the thought of his wife and her unknown faithful standings, interprets this to mean Iago is suggesting any man’s head would hurt if they were just deceived by their wife. Iago then comforts Othello explaining to him things like this happen all the time and that he will in fact get through it. Othello then declares Iago to be very wise. Iago not straying away from his goal to ruin Othello’s life, tells him to hide back a ways so that he can over hear a conversation between him and Cassio. A conversation in which Iago plans to incriminate Cassio by the way in which it will seem he talks about Desdemona so lightly. Othello agrees and is almost pleased with this idea. After Othello backs away, Iago divulges this particular plan to us, the audience, explaining that he’ll talk in veiled terms to Cassio about a prostitute, Bianca, whom Cassio takes very lightly. Iago believes when Othello listens to this conversation, he is bound to think Cassio is making light of his wife, Desdemona. Iago will underhandedly have given proof to Othello, yet again. When Cassio comes back, Iago brings up Bianca. Cassio, of course, laughs about how much the woman loves him, how desperate she is, and how easily beguiled she has been by his false intentions of marriage. This conversation is overheard by Othello, who apparently missed the key word…
