Iago And Othello Essay
Iago and Othello have a copious amount of dissenting opinions and this is never more palpable than
in their sentiment about Othello and even though they are both biased views, with Othello obviously
having an affinity to himself and the both narcissistic and envious Iago having an animosity towards
Othello, they reveal the nature of Othello. Othello is an amalgamation of experiences; he is royalty,
"I fetch my life and being from men of royal siege...(1:2:24–25), he is a respected and trusted
general, "Valiant Othello, we must straight employ you against the general enemy
Ottoman...(1:3:56), and he is confident, even refusing to retreat when Iago warns him of an indignant
Brabantio, "Let him do his spite...(1:2:20). Othello is a man of...show more content...
This is Iago's view on Othello,who is a man of considerable wealth,royalty,prestige and masculinity.

horse. You'll have your nephews neigh to you.You'll have coursers for cousins and gennets for
germans. (1:1:116–118". Even though Iago abhors Othello, he understands that Othello is an
unparalleled as a General, "...for he's embarked with such loud reason to the Cyprus wars (which
even now stand in act) that, for their souls,another of his fathom they have none to lead their
business.(1:1:148–152)". His skill is unprecedented that not even a Senator could apprehend Othello
permanently and Iago acknowledges this, "For I do know the state (however this may gall him with
some check) cannot with safety cast him...(1:1146–148)". Iago seems to be
