I WILL GIVE OUT BRAINLIEST AND 50 POINTS!!!!!!!
Please don't answer if you don't know!!
Please help with this because it was due a long time ago, but I didn't understand Othello, so I just never did it. My teacher finally put in the grade and now my Mom is on my back about getting it done and fixing my grade. I really need help with this. Even if no one can do 4 paragraphs, at least can someone please start it, and then I can try to figure something out from there? The marking period ends next week. I need to get my grade up.
Using the play Othello, please compose a 4 paragraph response to one of the writing prompts provided. Your response must be thesis-based, must make use of many directly-quoted and interpreted lines from the play, and must identify and analyze Shakespeare's use of two or more AP Literary elements.
1) Some have said that the focus of Othello is not the title character, as is the case with Shakespeare's other great tragedies, Macbeth, King Lear, and Hamlet. Is Othello simply too one-dimensional to be considered a great tragic hero? Does his seemingly unrealistic gullibility lessen our interest in him and his suffering?
2) Why does Othello not investigate Iago's accusations? Why does Othello not seek his own proof of Desdemona's betrayal?
3) Samuel Taylor Coleridge once wrote that Iago's soliloquies are the "motive-hunting of motiveless malignity". Is this an accurate observation? Does Iago have a motive or motives for his hatred of Othello?
4) Explore the character of Desdemona. What does she represent in the play?
5) Discuss Othello's relationship with Desdemona. Does he truly love her?
6) Examine the female characters in the play. Do they share a common role in Othello?
