7 years later and still the most useful Othello analysis

i literally need this for tomorrow's english exam

About Iago’s duplicity: he curses early in the play using the name of Janus, the two faced Roman god of doors. This links him to the theme of deception and implies his own two-faced nature

the animalistic imagery in the Black Ram...White ewe statement also brings Desdemona down to the same level as if tainted by being with him, probably because of the colour imagery and connotations related to the colour black as something dark; as you rightfully said would have had religious connections to the devil, also example of dramatic irony as Iago, the one who says it, has the closest demeanour to the devil.

someone decided to put Othello on the GCSE speck so im studying it and this is really helping me with my revision for my mocks and actual exams this year. thank youuuu

This helped me so so much! I have an exam tomorrow and this was so concise and clear in understanding

Thank you so much, this was really helpful to remind me of the basic plot line and key info for my exam tomorrow in a clear and concise way!!

this video is excellent and so clear, i incorporated some of your ideas into my a level essay and got an A!

Wow that was a great help, easy to refresh before my exam tomorrow. Many thanks

The cross cultural adaptation of Othello in Indian cinema is way fascinating. Having read the play (its usually off the routine Theatrical list) and seen the adaptation, I had a very different idea but your overview brings many different angles to the fore. Thanks

thank you queen for the simple summary.... my exam is on Saturday and this video helped me a lot!

I just got done with my A level exam on Othello last Thursday and I'm just watching this because I thoroughly enjoyed studying it towards the end. You wrapped things up and explained a lot of things so concisely! Enjoyed this thoroughly. I wish I could write in the way you speak here.

It's also important to remember about Emilia's and Iago's relationship - you can read a lot into how she speaks about men in Act 4 Scene 3! I feel she steals the napkin/handkerchief as to try and please a husband whom most likely beats and abuses her. Both Desdemona and Emilia fall victim to their husbands behaviour. Another social statement about the times.

This really helped - thank you!

You look like you could actually play the role of Desdemona (not because you are naive) because of your tone of voice, beauty and angel like features. Othello is the best.
