Othello/Contrasts in Language, Character & Mood
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page essay that discusses the thesis that Shakespeare's play Othello is, in many ways, a study in contrasts of language, character and mood. Through Shakespeare's expert manipulations of these elements the action of the play becomes understandable and logical whereas, otherwise, the main action would be inexplicable. In other words, Shakespeare pictures a man, who is very much in love with his wife, succumbing to innuendo, gossip and circumstantial evidence to the point that he looses all sense of perspective and murders the woman he loves. It is an improbable plot, at best, but Shakespeare makes it believable and tragic through the juxtaposition of contrasts in these three elements. No additional sources cited.
