Othello/Role of Jealousy
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that addresses the topic of the role that jealousy plays in Shakespeare's Othello. While the writer acknowledges that jealousy is the primary motivation that compels Othello to murder his wife, the writer argues that jealousy is compounded by his marginalized position in Elizabethan society, both as a military man and by his race. Iago's manipulation of the Moor is so successful because he is able to play off Othello's feelings of inadequacy and use Othello's qualities of decisiveness and integrity against him.

Othello/The Handkerchief
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that discusses the significance of the handkerchief in Shakespeare's Othello. In the history of the theater, the argument can easily be made that there has never been a prop as instrumental to the substance of a play as Desdemona's handkerchief is to the action of Shakespeare's Othello. This prop becomes symbolic to Othello of Desdemona's supposed infidelity, which is precisely what Iago intends. Iago's manipulation of the handkerchief provides Othello's military mind with his supposed "proof" of Desdemona's betrayal and precipitates Othello's tragic subsequent actions. Examination of the play demonstrates the pivotal importance of this prop and how the action and the thematic substance hinge on this one image. No other sources cited.

Othello: Iago's Shame
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing Iago's ability to deceive as presented in Act III Scene 3. Iago exhibits the behavior of the "frog years" of middle school, where normal children begin to learn the real lessons of life and the value of honesty in relationships. If they learn well enough, those entering middle school as frogs emerge as higher forms. Iago never continued that progression of maturation, if indeed he ever began it. As an adult, he has a much wider repertoire of methods of infecting others with his malicious, murderous ability to hate. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Othello: Shakespeare, Welles and Parker
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing Orson Welles' and Oliver Parker's film adaptations of Shakespeare's play. The first genius here is that of William Shakespeare, in his compelling and gripping tragedy featuring a story of racism that is as applicable today as it was 400 years ago. The second is that of Orson Welles, in his dramatic use of visual supports underscoring the powerful story. Then there's Oliver Parker. One reviewer muses that it is a Shakespearean tragedy, after all, so of course everyone is supposed to die. "By the time the end finally rolls around, I was hoping they'd all die, and soon." Both filmmakers retain the basic message of racism, but Welles manages to achieve the other aspects of the play as well. Parker does not. Bibliography lists 1 sources.

Othello: Compelling Drama
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. Impressive individuals who are distinguished by their words -- apart from the morality or success of their actions -- represent the formula for compelling drama, be it a comedy, tragedy or historical play. Perhaps no better example of this statement is found by examining Shakespeare's Othello, where the sole use of words designates each character as good or evil, whether warranted or not, thereby establishing a certain dramatic element. No additional sources cited.
