How Is Desdemona Presented In Othello

Intro: What does Desdemona represent in Shakespeare’s play? Well she represents a lot of things like showing her love for Othello and the betrayal in relationship between those two. And she has a good and sometimes bad relationship with her Dad.

The other thing that makes this relationship go south is when the text says “But you’ve seen her and Cassio together Yes, but I didn’t see anything
