Othello Case
Othello is a play written by William Shakespeare around 1601 and 1604. This play takes place around the 16th century, were a man called Othello is the greatest general to Venice. He assigns Cassio as lieutenant and is married to the beautiful Desdemona. This causes conflict to a man named Iago. He was indignant that he wasn’t lieutenant and had the suspicion that his wife cheated on him with the moor. As the play continues Iago sabotages Othello’s relationship and at the end everything ends with tragedy. But who is Iago and why his relationship falls apart? At the end this relationship can only bring chaos, death and betrayal.
Two different personalities come together to create a pandemonium and conflict between each other Iago is a man who has strong sense of determination. He was a general to Othello. Since Othello didn’t assign him as his lieutenant, he “retained” anger and resentment against him. He is a very vindictive person. Iago is shown as a man who can´t tolerate competition and who always wants to be the winner; take what it takes. What it seems, he is married to a woman who is as selfish as him. Married to her cause constant fights between each other, making the relation even tenser. With the constant problems with Emilia, Iago uses manipulation techniques to make Emilia do what he wants. With this he can make several plans to get rid of various characters in play, to at the end get his way. Emilia is Iago´s wife. She is a woman who is very shellfish and cant stand being with her husband. Emilia is the typical example of a wife who can only think in being with men like Othello instead of being with his husband. At the beginning of the relationship probably they loved each other. But as the relationship advances they start hating each other.
