othello race
Cards in this deck (4)
- 1IAGO: 'THICK LIPS'Iago and Roderigo uproot conformist/ racist society views within the 1st scene - defamatory images of Othello used
- 2IAGO: 'AN OLD BLACK RAM TUPPING YOUR WHITE EWE'Scene- both men aggresively insulting Othello. Iago fails to identify Othello's name - iago lacks awareness of what he is actually saying just repeats insults with no meaning which reflects his personality.
- 3BRAB: TO FALL IN LOVE WITH SOMETHING SHE FEARED TO LOOK ON' IAGO: THESE MOORS ARE CHANGEABLE IN THEIR WILLS'Iago discriminating against all black people - the change he references comes in act 2 scene 3 ' my blood begins' - anger - stereotypical- loses self control. Same as how Gatsby/ Willy Loman lose control' = tragedy.
- 4'A FLORENTINE'Iago points out Cassio = not venetian and neither is Othello. He finds it easy to point out races.
