  1. Othello by William Shakespeare http://ditechnology.wikispaces.com/file/view/Othello+power+point.ppt “Beware of jealousy, my lord. It is the green-eyed monster which doth mock the meat on which it feeds.” Iago

  2. William Shakespeare Shakespeare’s Home • William Shakespeare • 1564 – 1616 • Born in Stratford – upon –Avon, England • Known as Bard of Avon • Wrote 37 plays, 154 sonnets, various short poems

  3. Master of Tragedy • 10 of Shakespeare’s 37 plays were tragedies • Created some of the most memorable characters in literature • Almost 400 yrs. after his death, his plays are still the most widely performed

  4. Othello and Desdemona • Theme of doomed lovers popular in Shakespeare’s work • Othello fulfilled the concept of classic Greek tragic hero • Desdemona represented the innocent, proper female whose power lay in her beauty

  5. Iago • Iago personifies evil in Othello • He is considered by most critics and Shakespeare fans to be one of the most interesting characters ever written

  6. Conflict among 3 main characters • Othello appoints Cassio as his lieutenant rather than appointing Iago, but Iago feels he deserves the honor. • This exacerbates Iago’s hatred towards Othello, a hatred Iago secretly feels because he suspects Othello has slept with his wife Emilia. • Iago’s goal is to turn Othello against his wife Desdemona and ruin his life as he believes Othello has ruined his.

  7. Secondary Characters • The minor characters in Othello make important contributions to the plot and serve as pawns in Iago’s revenge plan.

  8. Secondary Characters

  9. Tragic Ending • The jealousy ignited in Othello by Iago’s subtle suggestions of Desdemona’s infidelity inspired Othello to take the life of the woman he loved more than life itself • As in most traditional tragedies, the tragic hero falls to ruin because of a character flaw, in Othello’s case – jealousy.
