Shakespeare’s Othello follows the machinations of Iago and Roderigo, to a lesser extent, to harm the African general of the Venetian army, Othello. Roderigo goes to Iago, Othello’s ensign or advisor, for help to get Othello’s wife, Desdemona. Iago and Roderigo frame an affair between Othello’s lieutenant, Cassio, and Desdemona in order to strip Cassio of his position and break up Othello and Desdemona. What solidifies Othello ending tragically instead of hilariously is in Act III Scene iii when…

Emilia “If wives do fall. [...] The ills we do, their ills instruct us so” (4.3.87-104). Though not typically seen as a major character in Othello, Emilia has very crucial roles in the conflict and resolution of play. Constantly privy to the misdoings of her husband, the villainous Iago, Emilia is a fairly strong character and an important part of Desdemona’s death from beginning to end. Emilia’s greatest importance to the conflict and plot of the play is that she is faithful to Desdemona and…

playing in the Super Bowl? Michael Oher, a person who nobody would have had any hope for, beat the odds to become a professional football player.

Michael Oher’s early…

Basketball has been the highlight of my highschool experience. I was eager to join the program freshman year of high school.

I grew a strong love for basketball that every time I'd play, I'll instantly be in a good mood. I was the goofy one out of all my teammates and wasn't shy to have fun. The JV team had an instant bond because of my big…

“Jealousy is the fear of comparison,” Max Frisch spoke the truth when it comes to jealousy and the part it plays in Othello. Throughout the play, characters compare themselves to one another and twist their insecurities into reasons to hate one another. The case of hatred that encompasses each individual, and even leads some to kill, resulting in no one to compare themselves to. In a Shakespearean play the main character, without fail, possesses a tragic flaw; in Othello, the Moor of Venice, his…

A foil to Stanley Kowolski, Mitch is always dressed neatly, he is respectful and kind, he speaks in a more refined manner--not coarse like Pablo. While Stanley takes off his shirt and goes around in his undershirt, Mitch will not remove his coat for fear he is sweating too much; he even says that the men should not be playing cards around the women. However, Mitch has some of the male predator in him, just like Stanley. For, when he learns of Blanche's less than stellar reputation, he tries…

In the story of King Lear, Shakespeare uses metaphorical and literal blindness to relay how Gloucester overcomes the burdensome power inflicted upon him by the younger generation and himself. Shakespeare accomplishes this by providing examples of Gloucester’s struggle to rid himself of power through his sons, his friends, and himself. Gloucester had to overcome the emotional blindness of the love he had for his sons to have who they really are come to light. He had to perceive his friends of the…
