JEALOUSY

  • Iago is perhaps jealous of the the power Desdemona has over Othello


  • Iago's jealousy of not being promoted is arguably the source of this tragedy.


  • Othello's jealousy is exploited by Iago, as can be seen when he begins to mirror Iago's crude and bitter language.


  • Othello's insistence for 'ocular' proof suggests his nobility.


  • This play shows how jealousy is terrifying and destructive.


  • Othello's jealousy is reflected in Bianca's jealousy over the handkerchief.


  • Shakespeare presents to the audience how jealousy is a part of all of us.
