Othello
Othello, one of the great plays from William Shakespeare, was composed in the affluent period of literature in England. According to Literature: An Introduction to Fiction, Poetry, and Drama. Ed. X. J. Kennedy and dana Gioia. 9th ed, William Shakespeare is known as the great writer of English who was born, baptized, and buried in the market town of Stratford-on-Avon. Shakespeare usually composes most of his plays adapting from a tale story. Othello is an example how Shakespeare borrows the scheme from a tale story of a sixteenth century Italian writer, Giraldi Cinthio. However, he had proved himself to the world as a brilliant author of literature in both poems and plays by his achievements. Hamlet, King Lear, Macbeth, and Othello are the most four notable plays of tragedy, which honestly turn Shakespeare to a brilliant writer. Nevertheless each play contains a significant theme such as murder, race and love. Although Shakespeare had composed many plays, the theme of each play is slightly different from one another. What distinguishes Othello from its great tragedies peers is the role of its villain, Iago. Hamlet, King Lear, and Macbeth are all remarkably evil in their own way while Othello focuses on th
It must conform as a strict tradition. The next thing that he should do is just to wait. Iago says;Iago: Zounds, sir, you are one of those that will not serve God if the devil bid you. Consequently, the Moor has executed his wife. Therefore, this consequence leads to another theme which is reputation. When Cassio asks Desdemona for helping, the Moor will mistakenly understand that Desdemona betrays him. He then goes to the court and prosecutes Othello as using a witch craft on his daughter. Another essential theme is jealousy. He extremely upsets with Iago's action, and he is very depressing by killing his innocent wife. According to the period of time when the play was composed, the English society considered black people as slave or the lowest class of the society. Because we come to do you service and you think we are ruffians, you'll have your daughter covered with a Barbary horse; you'll have you nephews neigh to you; you'll have coursers for cousins and jennets for Germans. 111-114)Eventually, Brabantio is successfully provoked by Iago.
