Hamlet’s First Soliloquy The tone of Hamlet’s first soliloquy begins as sad and depressed as Hamlet contemplates suicide.

Iago/Othello: The Main Character The whole Iago verses Othello on who’s the main character of this tragedy has been going on for decades. Iago is a manipulative‚ revenge seeking‚ nefarious villain; although he seeks all this attention he is not of great importance in my opinion.

The Use of Soliloquies in Romeo and Juliet Talking to yourself is never a good idea in society‚ unless of course you are a character in a work by William Shakespeare. Many of his famous works are riddled with people talking to themselves‚ rambling on and on in Shakespeare’s unique poetic fashion of iambic pentameter. These outbursts of thought that come from the minds of the characters are generally called soliloquies. One of the most famous scenarios of a soliloquy happens to come from the play

which made him believe his only punishment was death. In the end‚ Iago succeeded in ruining Othello’s life. Iago is the character that made the lies and slowly but surely plotted.

HAMLET: To be‚ or not to be--that is the question: Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune Or to take arms against a sea of troubles And by opposing end them. To die‚ to sleep-- No more--and by a sleep to say we end The heartache‚ and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to. ’Tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished.
