Act 1
1. |
How does Shakespeare present the world of Venice in
the first act, and how does he construct the interactions
of his central characters (Iago, Othello, and Desdemona)
with that Venetian world and with each other. How are
these interactions complicated by the fact that Othello
is a Moor and that Desdemona is a young women? |
2. |
What sort of person is Iago, as he appears in act 1?
Are you satisfied by the reasons he gives for hating
Othello? What is Iago's relationship with Roderigo? |
3. |
What sort of language does Iago use? What sort of language does Othello use? What might be the significance of this difference? |
