Deception in Hamlet & Othello
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper that contrasts and compares the use of deception in these two plays. The writer argues that in both plays, characters, specifically Hamlet and Iago, engage in deceptive actions that are intended to manipulate others.

Hamlet is tortured about whether revenge against his uncle is the correct action, that is, action that is justified and noble. Iago, on the other hand, is the epitome of evil and positively revels in his duplicity. Nevertheless, certain parallels can be drawn between the Iago and the prince of Denmark. Both Iago and Hamlet use manipulate language in order to deceive, and, also, they are both motivated, to a certain extent by repulsion at certain sexual liaisons. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
