    If Shakespeare would have written Othello in a different genre than there would be quite a dramatic change in the understanding of the play/poem. I personally feel that if would be more understandable if it were written in a novel form. This is because there would be more detail of the characters, more details of the setting, and more details of what the characters are physically doing. There would be the same amount of dialogue since there is quite a lot of dialogue in novels. While at the same time there would be a reduction in some things the characters in Othello say beucase they dont have to describe their own feelings.…
