My teacher is predicting jealousy, however I cannot seem to find many quotes surrounding the topic, can you think of any?

Comparison between TGG and Love poetry

i think if you plan an essay for a few love themes that are prominent that havnt already come up you should be fine

yeah broken love, barriers to love. hopefully something we can talk about how Gatsby's love for Daisy is materialistic otherwise it'll be difficult to link to the poems.

Othello will hopefully be jealousy

That would be bloody great I also don’t think it has come up - if it has it hasn’t been explicit
The Winter's Tale would be great if it was a jealousy question but it came up recently so I'm not sure what to expect.

Some of the plans I've done are: obsessive love, forbidden love, unrequited love, materialism and class division but I don't know if i'm missing any potential themes which could catch me off guard

Idk if this is any use to anyone but last year’s othello was about men controlling women and the poetry was either loss of love or enduring love.
