Journal #22

I've been focusing a lot on the character of Iago and I think I will continue with that. his intricate ways of behavior and his thought process is very interesting to me. He's using so many people at once and still finds a way to justify his actions to himself. Yet he is even willing to destroy his own marriage to do likewise to Othello's. I'm waiting for him to slip and make a rash decision under what appears to be over ruling jealousy, but the fact that this is atragedy discounts this theory. It would seem his plan is going to work.

  1. Wow, Blake, you are a very deep thinker! I never even imagined to think of that! But that is so true! Iago does seem to be capable of finding a way of justifying his actions to himself.
