Othello 4

"IAGO: Do it not with poisson.  Strngle her in her bed, even the bed she hath contaminated.
OTHELLO: Good, good! The justice pleases. Very good."

I chose these lines because I think it shows how easily Othello will take Iago's advice.  I also find that it is evidence of Othello's temper.  He hasn't even confronted Desdemona about the topic.  It could be a huge misunderstanding and all Othello is going by is a rumor.

I agree with you idea's on Iago's plans.  Very interesting.

  1. I also think that Othello is very quick to take Iago's advice, even when there isn't much backing it up. Maybe he will eventually find out Iago is lying to him?

  2. I think it's weird how desperately Othello trusts Iago. He believes in every word that snake speaks. It is also frustrating that Othello hasn't told her why he is angry, which is a HUGE block in their relationship.

  3. i also find it strange that he doesn't even think about asking her about it first instead of just going and killing her
