Iago states: “Thus do I ever make fool my purse” ( I.iii.374). Evidently, Iago takes advantage of Roderigo’s devotion by conning him in his money. Similarly, Iago uses Roderigo once more by convincing him to kill Cassio. Although, Roderigo is reluctant at first, he relents once Iago insists that this will win him Desdemona. Roderigo states: “I have no great devotion to the deed and yet he hath given my satisfying reasons.
The key part of this however is that Iago is tempting Cassio, very like the devil himself tries to tempt us. Iago tempts Cassio in this way but he remains very proper and remarks only that ‘She’s a most of exquisite lady’. His initial remarks are soon followed by 'And I’ll warrant her full of game’. an inappropriate statement in reference to his captains wife designed to manipulate Cassio into making lecherous comments about Desdemona. We can see various factors of the language
Othello then sees and claims Iago to be ‘honest’ throughout the play and believing all the lies that is told to him. This shows that Othello was not responsible for the bulk of the tragedy but being very gullible and not thinking twice for his actions towards his surroundings and helping Iago’s plan for revenge. Quoted by Iago in Act 3 Scene 3, “Men should be what they seem”, gives the irony of illusion and reality. There is an extensive jealousy with Othello and thinking Desdemona is having an affair with Cassio using the napkin Othello gave to Desdemona as the symbol between them, building a chaotic wrath inside
The dramatic irony that the reader can predict what will happen as the story progresses, but yet is hopeless to prevent it, reflects how Iago “knows” that Othello is having an affair with his wife, but is reluctant to try to stop it by means other than to ruin Othello’s life completely. Cassio, on the other hand is known by the reader to be a respectable lieutenant, however the view of him by the characters changes. The characters notice how a drunk and disorderly Cassio assaults Roderigo; however what is not seen is how Cassio was manipulated by Iago. As a result, Iago is seen as more honest, and Cassio is thought of as untrustworthy (as shown more thoroughly in Act 3 scene 3). The irony of this is that Cassio is honest and Iago is not.
He does not notice his change but others like Banquo are completely aware of the fact that Macbeth “ [has] it all: [he’s] the king, the thane of Cawdor, and the thane of Glamis, just like the weird women promised [him]. And [Banquo] suspect [he] cheated to win these titles.” (3.1.1) The witches know exactly how everything will turn out and manipulate him in such a way that he does not know that he is becoming evil. They do this by giving him the illusion that the things he is doing are done in order to protect himself when in fact they just pull him deeper into the pit of evil and arise second thoughts about Macbeth’s greatness among others. The complete change can easily be seen by Act 4 as the First Apparition cries“Macbeth! Macbeth!
He gives a sly/ cunning impression; he shows this by saying to Sheila: Yes. We can keep it from him. This indicates that if he is able to hide secrets he will like the affair with Dasiy Renton, also known as Eva. As we, all know reading through the play Sheila knew nothing about the affair until Gerald was force to confess and come out with the truth. Gerald also hows some sympathy for Eva as he “Walks out distressed” when he hears how he is responsible for Eva’s death.
This makes him responsible for his own removal from the relationship. The scence when Bundy has the gun is just another metaphor for her being in control. This is logical and emotional because everyone loves when the woman is able to take up for herself and by removing the man she asserting her power. She further uses humiliation to show the lowlesness of a man who is unfaithful to his woman. This is logical and emotional because a real loving man would not be unfaithful and
It’s clear that each of them is meant to torture one of the others. Garcin tortures Estelle, because she wants him to love her and think her beautiful, while he refuses to do so. Estelle tortures Inez, because Inez feels an unreciprocated attraction to Estelle. And finally, Inez tortures Garcin. He wants to be considered a hero, not a coward, and it is Inez’s approval that he seeks (since he has correctly identified that she, not Estelle, knows and understands human emotions and
Shakespeare manipulates our response to Richard by implying in the text that he poisoned his wife Anne in order to gain a political marriage to his niece, Elizabeth of York. He is a master of dissembling and a man undeniably without charm, regardless his physical deformity. Finally, he possesses a sense of irony and a sardonic wit, which extensively explains his connection with audiences and readers. Shakespeare’s use of soliloquies enables us to see Richard’s duplicitous nature. He masterfully manipulates our response into having a grudging admiration for his skilful use of language.
Lady Macbeth constantly challenges her husband's manhood by mocking and taunting him into a state of . We can see this when she challanges Macbeth in saying """"""""" Since he fulfilled her order, he started losing his integrity and relying less on his conscience. It is easier to have sympathy for a person who is not entirely to blame for his actions. In Macbeth's case, his wife was at least partly responsible. However, even taking into consideration the pressure and harassment Macbeth is subjected to preceding
