Character that stood out to me after I had read Othello was Iago. Iago isn’t a nice man clearly the villain in the play controlling Othello who was once thought as a hero. Iago’s motives were finally clear at the end showing him to be controlled of his own jealousy and hatred of Othello “I hate the moor”. It is thought that Othello’s life and his character was ruined by the art and skill of Iago the villain showing Othello to be a simple man (Ambreen Shahriar 2013).

Adam and Eve produced the possibility of making any choice at all. In your mythology you have made Eve the bad one‚ the temptress who ate of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil and coyly invited Adam to join her.
