Othello vs. Robert Ross
For kids, jobs are all based on money, fame or just being recognized. We all want to be the big man, the most popular or just well respected. We see people on television or read about them in books and sometimes we dream about being that person and think we can handle it. When we, as humans, grow up, tend to know what we want to be and who we want to be, but we never really think about the truth about ourselves. A simple incident can change who we think we are. This is evident through Robert Ross and Othello. They think they know what they want but then change view in their own ways. Things change as we grow up and what we thought was good at that time, doesn't always stay that way. Robert Ross was the main character in the novel "The Wars" by Timothy Findley. He was like many boys, wanting to become a war hero when he grew up. He had such faith in senior officers, in the ideals of glory and heroism and patriotism. He wanted to be all that. His decision to go to war was basically made when his sister died. Robert Ross and his sister, Rowena, had a very close relationship. She depended on Robert to care for her, as she was unable to do so herself. Robert would think of he
He is telling her that once he is done doing what he has to do, he will go straight home to her. Unfortunately, the horses die before he can save them all and he is filled with anger, shooting captain Leather between the eyes for causing their death. He realizes this on the first time that he killed a senior official called Eugene Taffle. "Robert Ross has become a man, an extraordinary one, in his one year at war"(Ann Reynolds pg 3). "I'll come to thee straight" (act 3 scene 3 lines 86-87). In his mind, they kept reaching out for the back of Rowena's chair" (pg. It was for her he learned to run" (page 14). "When she smiled, he thought she was his mother. Othello loved her so much that he tries to be a different person to please the people who frowned upon the marriage. "But I do love thee! And when I love thee not, Chaos is come again" (act 3 scene 3 line 91-92). This makes him feel that her death was actually his fault, even though he was not supposed to be watching her at that time. From this moment on, you see him rebel against anyone who does not respect his love for animals. He treats his wife right and tells her that he loves her and means it. This is what Robert thought he wanted to be and this was the person who he thought he would like to live as. r as one of the only stable things in his life- she is always there.
