Examples Of Evil In Othello

A person can absorb another person’s advice when it is given. Someone can suggest anything to anyone and it is the other person’s choice to take it or not.

When you can’t handle something you would usually turn to the closest person to you know, well Othello did just that and he ended commiting a horrible crime. Othello’s second hand man is untrustworthy Iago and he has a way of persuasion. Cluelessly, Othello needed advice about Desdemona and their marriage. Iago thought of a perfect plan to get to Othello, to get in between his marriage and break Othello’s heart. To do that he made up a rumor that Desdemona was cheating on him with Cassio, a conniving way to bring Othello down to his knees, “I speak not yet of proof.
Wear your eyes thus, not jealous nor secure” which assists in Iago's plan of deceiving Othello.(Act III, scene iii, 225-230) Othello didn’t want to believe that his loving wife was doing such a thing but hearing it from the closest person he knows, it could be true. To hear such things made Othello confused and broken, to add more suffering, Iago gave advice to murder his wife for the sins she has committed. With some persuasion and comfort, Othello had rage in his heart and followed Iago’s advice and “Do it not with poison. Strangle her in her bed, even the bed she hath contaminated.” (Act IV, scene i, 227-229) His twist of words and cold heart, murder was committed and everything ended badly.
