Othello Acts 1 2 3

Personal- Iago reveals his own characterization through his thoughts and actions. As with most Shakespeare, my favorite character is the one who brings about all the trouble. He is unbelievably smart and canniving. What makes this play interesting are the ploys he comes up with and his ability to deceive everyone. As an audience, we like to think that we would not fall for such obvious betrayal, but it has happened to everyone. His chameleon personality allows him to blend in with the intelligent and dumb alike. Such a unique characters adds importance to the story. One lesson is teaches is to watch your back. The person you may think is going to be there for you may actually be the one troubling you. Through this play, Shakespeare inspires serious themes through interesting characters and story lines.
