She did deceive her father, marrying you,
And when she seemed to shake, and fear your looks
She loved them most. (3.3.209-211)
For she had eyes and chose me. (3.3.192)
- How do ideas about difference and otherness help Iago's manipulation of Othello in this scene? Consider:
- How Othello is reminded of the fact that Cassio helped him to woo Desdemona (lines 70-74) (Remember, Othello is insecure about how he speaks compared to Italian people 'rude am I in my speech')
- How Iago reminds Othello of how different he is to Desdemona (lines 232-242)
- The reasons Othello thinks that Desdemona may fall out of love with him (lines 267-270)
