Speaker: Duke
Subject: Clarifies Othello's heroic and high status/ cements our notion now of him as the hero/ confirms Iago's manipulation. - 20"The other."Theme: Alienation
Subject: Shakespeare creates illusion that Othello is a dark, mysterious, supernatural character. - 21"Killing myself to die upon a kiss"Subject: Othello does deserve his fate as when he has the choice between believing Desdemona or Iago he chooses Iago and does not ask anyone face to face if any rumours are true. So believing the wrong 'Ocular Proof' and not asking others led to the death of his wife.
