    believe everything Iago tells him is true? Why doesn’t Othello seek his own proof of Desdemona’s betrayal? I’ll tell you why. Throughout the entire play‚ Iago does everything possible to gain the trust and respect of Othello. Iago begins to tell Othello everything that has happened between Cassio and Desdemona. Again Othello seems a bit skeptic about believing Iago but of course‚ everything Iago says is happening‚ happens and becomes somewhat true. Othello is believing everything Iago tells him and I

    In the tragedy of Othello‚ Iago draws out the true nature of Othello‚ inch by inch. He tangles the Moor into a web of lies‚ hatred and deceit- which leads to devastating consequences. Reputation is the most outstanding theme in this play as it visibly classifies characters and it defines relationships between each of them. At the conclusion of Act 2‚ Shakespeare uses various methods to present Iago to the audience‚ and reveal his ideas and thoughts‚ the most effective being a soliloquy. "Motiveless

    Kiana Bales Mrs. MacKenzie English 3U Monday‚ April 15‚ 2013 Abigail Williams and Iago: Master Villains Villains play a very important role in every literary work. Whether they exist as people‚ circumstances‚ or even nature‚ their purpose is to provide a problem to be solved by the “good guys”. Without villains‚ no piece of literature would be worth reading.

    The character of Iago is crucial for the play‚ and its essence has often been presented as ‘the evil taking a human form.’ What is important to any attempt to understand this play is the mechanism that makes the action moving forward. If this is ‘the force of evil’‚ represented in the character of Iago‚ this gives him the most relevant role‚ the power to forward the entire course of the play in certain direction. A number of fortunate circumstances helps his plot‚ and even in the most dangerous

    entire personality can be reconstructed by another’s cues‚ encourages companionship and intimacy‚ as developed between Othello and Iago‚ shown through Othello recognising Iago as someone of “exceeding honesty”. His ultimate naïve trust in Iago leads Iago’s manipulation to facilitate the feature of the Socratic method that a personality can be altered from another’s cues as Iago distributes imperatives such as “Note” and “You shall”‚ this over-analysis will lead Othello to undoubtedly become more jealous

    it can be ok‚ but the way Iago uses language to deceive people is not ethical. Example: Act 1 Scene 1 Lines 94-95 The way Iago described Othello and Desdemona’s marriage to Brabantio made it sound as if Desdemona did not want to marry Othello‚ and it made Brabantio hate Othello even more. 1a. Iago’s anger is based off of Cassio being promoted higher than him. He promises to betray Othello the first chance he gets (because of his anger) Act 1 Scene 1 Line 67 Iago was also able to manipulate

    myself. Exact thing applies to Shakespeare ’s Iago‚ the almost too perfect villain in the play Othello. Different from the other typical trite villains‚ Iago has more depth in him other than being plain pure evil. Consumed with envy and plots Iago deceives and kills those who trust him‚ using the mask of "honest". As an amoral villain‚ it is not that Iago pushes aside his conscience to commit these acts‚ but that he lacks a conscience to begin with. Iago ’s amorality results in the marginality of Othello

    Othello’s supposed right hand man‚ Iago. There are many reasons why I feel that Iago is the main person responsible for the horrible deaths that incur in such a short period of time but the most obvious would be that he is an evident sociopath. A sociopath can be described as somebody affected with a personality disorder made obvious by being overly aggressive‚ violent and antisocial thoughts and behaviors and a lack of empathy. Living with this disease and not knowing made Iago a very cold and calculating

    development of the character of Iago and his manipulative and treacherous deeds. It is through Iago and his ways that he works gradually at destroying Othello‚ defaming Desdemona and deposing of Cassio. In this‚ we are able to see Iago’s spiteful scheme in which he creates havoc and seeks motives for his malice. A famous English poet‚ Samuel Taylor Coleridge‚ depicts Iago’s actions as “the motive-hunting of motiveless malignity This is seen in Act I and II as Iago seeks reasons‚ motive hunting to

    every action or event stems from one of Shakespeare’s simplest characters‚ Iago. Within the first scene‚ Iago is introduced as the main antagonist. His purpose is to elevate himself and preserve his manhood through means of manipulation‚ as well as emphasizing the themes of jealousy and and race through his relationship with Othello. From the first scene‚ Iago reveals his amoral and egoistic nature. I believe that whenever Iago feels that his masculinity is being attacked‚ he chooses to manipulate
