Shakespeares Othello - Essay on Iago as the Hero of Othello :: GCSE English Literature Coursework

Iago as the Hero of Othello   Make an argument that Iago is the hero sandwich, not the villain of this play. Why could we look at him that way? If he is the hero, who does this strain as the villain and why? What values are important if Iago is the hero? In the play Othello, many can and would label Iago as a villain or even an/the enemy of the play. Im not going to differ or agree with anyones opinion on whether Iago is the/an villain or not, because e sincerelybody has their witness point of view. The purpose of me writing this paper is to prove that Iago is not a villain, well at least not a villain in the play Othello. Iago was the main character who caused all the destruction at the block of the play, however there was always some worries going along in the play because Othello was a black man and he was married to the young, very much younger than him, Desdemona. Who also is a white lady. Neither the less(prenominal) this essay is not about Othello and Desdemona . Iago had Othello believe that Cassio was having an affair with Desdemona. There isnt really any conclusion or reasoning for Iagos doings, perhaps besides the further reason which he knows. And that reason none of us know of. The scarcely conclusion i can come up with on why Iago has done what he done is because he was looking out for himself. This reminds me of a saying i use to always hear. Nothing is going to discover for yourself unless you make it happen yourself. I dont know if Iago knew what the outcome of his doings would be, which was cobblers last for him, but i do believe he did the things he did because he was looking out for himself. Iago had to take things in his own hands and do what he felt was best. As i said before i truly dont believe he knew what the outcome would be because nobody wants destruction and i believe Iago did not want death. When i approached these thesis as of whether Iago can be consider a hero, i had/have a point that can base him as a he ro but no for himself but for others. I dont know if that is the way i was cipher to approach the topic, but i do believe Iago was a hero.
