Othello - Day 10

Today - Tuesday - you shared the dialogues you wrote about Act III, scene 3 as we tried to identify the turning point of the play for Othello. Along the way, we identified several of the methods used by Iago to influence Othello, from seeming one way (trustworthy, loyal) and being another, to raising doubt in Othello's mind about Desdemona's love. He raises questions about her actions - she disobeyed her father in marrying Othello, so maybe she will be deceitful to others - she will want to be with people "like her" - and by the end of the scene Othello declares that his love for her is over and that he wants both Desdemona and Cassio killed.

Check the Google Slide show presentations you made yesterday to see all of the dialogues. Hopefully, you were taking great notes on all of this! We had an excellent discussion about it, too!
