By Iago being the puppet master of the play he reveals the inhuman side of people and how they react to manipulation and deception. In the book Othello by Shakespeare we have what I see as a masterful puppeteer. He should be in Sesame Street if you ask me. The puppet masters name is Iago. Iago uses many tools at his dispersal like manipulation, lies, and sometimes just pure luck. His end goal is clear at first but near the end of the story we’re not quite sure where he’s going. Iago is pissed off because Othello just simply overlooked him for getting the spot of lieutenant, this is what starts this whirlwind of hatred and all out jealousy in Iago’s pitiful head. Othello says that he thinks that he can trust Iago. In act 1 scene 3…

In Michael Petry’s The Code Breaker, the Puppet Master does not believe that the government should hold the power to strictly implement laws and orders that control the people. The Puppet Master makes a solid argument that the government’s power needs to be limited because, left unchecked, government leaders are often corrupted by their own…

Science Autobiography My first memories of science lessons in elementary school are from kindergarten, when we made sock puppets filled with dirt and grass seed. The grass grew out of the top of the sock puppet, and created a sort of hair for it. I thought it was the greatest thing ever. When I got the chance to bring it home, I put it in the window in the kitchen, so everyone could see it. I was so proud of that thing. In first grade we raised butterfly eggs into larvae to a chrysalis, into…

Puppet of a Pal Sometime around the age of five or six, I received a gift of a hand puppet. I assume the maker tried to make it resemble a spider. The back end of the puppet ballooned, which made the head very small. It was the color of lilacs with a powder pink nose and bright yellow antennae. I named it Bugsy, and he lived at my grandparent’s house in LaCrosse, Wisconsin. My little fingers couldn’t fill the enormous leg holes or the head hole to play with the puppet. Instead, I would…
