For example, Othello might see Iago as a very loyal person, however in reality Iago is planning to get revenge on Othello. I feel that this relates strongly to Iago because he is a mastermind that deceives and tricks the other characters around him. This is just one of the many quotes listed above that show the tricks the eye can play on oneself, and how you must really be careful as to what you are perceiving. This quote shows that the pageant is merely a distraction, to the reality of things. ‘Tis a pageant to keep us in false gaze”( Shakespeare 1. In line 24, the dukes and senators were talking about the safety of Cyprus, and describes that: “This cannot be, by no assay of reason. By using many circumstances of eyes in this scene it really describes how the eyes might be deceiving to oneself. I personally feel that Shakespeare’s repetitive yet useful way of presenting the theme of eyes in this scene is very effective. Line 276 – important thoughts being in ones eye Line 116 – Fear to look upon line 180 – Tears Here are some instances where we see the symbol of eyes show up in this story: Just a random question: Does Iago plan to get Desdemona all for himself in the future? If i were the dukes I would of punished them for interrupting such a important meeting Personal Question: The dukes have immense patience, in my personal opinion, because of how they even gave time for Othello and Roderigo. This, however they had to end their discussion and help Othello and Roderigo solve their small issue. The dukes, are meeting and having an intense conversation about the safety and the future of Cyprus, in what I imagine as a very formal and serious place. Personally I felt that the setting for Othello and Roderigo’s party to interrupt is quite funny.
And to their surprise, Desdemona testifies that she loves Othello and yes, it is because of his stories that she developed love for him. He was so confident that he allowed Desdemona to testify, and said that they could take his life if Desdemona said anything different from what he said. Rather than claiming that magic was used to get Desdemona, Othello says that it is because of his manly and brave stories that he told to Brabantio that wooed Desdemona. Suddenly, Othello, Brabantio, Roderigo, Cassio, Iago and their party rudely interrupts their meeting, and brings up their own issues.Īs the dukes try to help their problem, and listens to both sides.
