The Downfall of Othello in Shakespeare’s "Othello" Although one may seem sweet‚ innocent‚ and harmless‚ he potentially might just be hiding the beastly side of himself quite well. Shakespeare’s “Othello” depicts the perfect example of this idea of a “two-faced” man using the main character‚ Othello.

one’s greatest enemy is their own self. This statement rings true in William Shakespeare’s tragedy of character‚ Macbeth‚ as many characters’ downfalls occur as a result of their own vices. The most prominent of these flawed people is Lady Macbeth whose excess of success in manipulation is what ultimately causes her downfall.

The review that I chose to review was one about Steven Sherrill’s book The Minotaur Takes His Own Sweet Time‚ by the New York Times journalist Allan Gurganus. In his review‚ titled A Minotaur’s in Maintenance in a Tale of Rust Belt America‚ Gurganus ponders whether the Minotaur is a worthwhile subject to place into contemporary American life; and while the Minotaur may be a multi-millennia year old beast‚ Gurganus believes that a once feared creature reduced to average Joe’s level is a good comparison
