Haply for I am black, And have not those soft parts of
conversation" - ANSWER-Act 3 Scene 3 Othello: As soon as
doubt of Desdemona's infidelity begins, Othello loses his sense
of manhood and begins to be affected by the racial prejudices
he had previously shrugged off. His feelings reflect the racist
society that he lives in and the audience is left to feel pathos
towards the pitiful Othello.
"She's gone. I am abused and my relief must be to loathe her" -
ANSWER-Act 3 Scene 3 Othello: This statement should be
written in the model or conditional tense, however here
Shakespeare uses a clear declarative to portray Othello's
distress. Hence, this further cements to the audience that in
Othello's mind, Desdemona is already guilty. Although he
demands "ocular proof", the insecurities he feels from the
racial prejudices at the time result in him immediately casting
Desdemona as the "_____ of Venice".
"I nothing but to please his fantasy" - ANSWER-Act 3 Scene 3
Emilia: This quote again further emphasizes the stereotype of
females to please their husbands despite Emilia knowing that
what she does his wrong. Her subservience reflect the
obedience of all women in the play to their male counterparts.
,"I will in Cassio's lodging lose this napkin and let him find it"
"The Moor already changes with my poison" - ANSWER-Act 3
Scene 3 Iago:
Snatching the handkerchief Iago regains an excusive control
over directing the unfolding jealousy of Othello. By directly
revealing his intentions to the audience again, they one again
become explicit to the tragi downfall of Othello. This awareness
of the scheme he is concocting shows once again the
calculated nature of Iago. The destructive language and
references to "poison" again reveal the corruption that Iago is
creating in Othello's mind. He has used references to diseases
and medicines throughout the play, highlighting the admiring
nature of his intelligence as even linguistically Iago is able to
manipulate the language to his own advantage.
"O now for ever Farewell the tranquil mind!"
"Farewell" - ANSWER-Act 3 Scene 3 Othello: Othello is now
raving angry, and his anger can be portrayed on stage through
him erratically pacing around the stage. The exclamatives,
interrogatives as well as his use of rhetorical questions does
highlight his hamartia of having such a quick temper and
perhaps, jumping to such quick conclusions of jealousy.
Furthermore, the repetition of "Farewell" highlights the
continuing loss of identity for Othello.
"Give me the ocular proof" - ANSWER-Act 3 Scene 3 Othello:
Othello's demand
, for ocular proof, that is, tangible evidence of his wife's
adultery, is the turning
point in the play. It places Iago in a perilous position. He
has to produce
physical evidence to support all his false accusations or die.
More ironically still,
what follows is not physically 'ocular' at all, but a play on
Othello's fevered
imagination.
"I think my wife be honest, and think she is not; I think that thou
are just, and think thou art not" - ANSWER-Act 3 Scene 3
Othello: The structure of the speech here is expressing God
Janus: the two faced God. Othello does not know what to
believe as two different versions of reality lie before him.
Othello has quickly fallen into a state of great disturbance,
confusion and uncertainty shown through is anxious and
uneasy speech. Would be played in a staccato manner on
stage.
"In sleep I heard him say sweet Desdemona, let us be wary, let
us hide our love" - ANSWER-Act 3 Scene 3 Iago: Iago responds
to Othello's demand for visible proof with the most
circumstantial, unverifiable evidence. And Othello, overcome
by jealousy, accepts it. Notice also that Othello immediately
thinks of killing Desdemona. He believes that she has robbed
him of his manhood, so he feels he must destroy her. Iago's
explanation is an echo of Iago's line at the end of Act 2 where
he exclaimed that he would "tear the moor apart"
