[close] there's one red thin-line I recently acknowledge of Shakespeare "character murdered" from his books: he always uses poisonous herbs as a toxic ingredient, and I think it's cool. jes clean death, complimented with luxurious time to contemplate what's "what" and who's "who". honestly I haven't finished reading these whole 5 tragedies. I miss MacBeth and Othello.

Othello is the story of the downfall of a man gifted with sterling qualities. It is one of Shakespeare?s most tragic plays. A typical Shakespearean tragedy is a sad tale ending inthe death of a tragic hero. The tragic heroes in Shakespeare?s plays possess the best of human qualities.Othello is a great human being bestowed with the qualities of a great military commander. Othello marries a beautiful lady named Desdemona. No other wife could be as faithful as Desdemona. Othello is forced to believe that Desdemona is an unfaithful wife by Iago.Iago is an egomaniac who proves to be a great villain in the play. He uses his cunningness to take revenge from Othello. His only motive is self advancement. He is ready to achieve his motives by wrong means. In the play we also see the dark side of Othello?s character. He is easily influenced by Iago which highlights his lack of foresight. His anger becomes the cause of his downfall. He loses control over himself and takes wrong decisions in the end. Desdemona, on the other hand, possesses the qualities of an ideal wife. Her heart is broken when she is accused by Othello of being unfaithful to him. The only negative point in her character is that she never strives to prove herself innocent. Ironically, she is strangled to death by her own husband for being unfaithful to him in the end.Othello is a story of a great man who is responsible for his own downfall. The negative qualities in Othello?s character outweigh the positive qualities. This ultimately leads to his downfall.I recommend Othello to all book readers who are looking for meaningful reading. The book is easily available in any reputed book store

I place desdemona as if she is miss universe and miss world combined,the fire in me still burns the moment i hear the very word desdemona,I dont know how shakespear knew to kindle sensual feelingscenturies back.Othello is a pure drama written by shakespear for the stage to be played by actors who wanted to express their ability to perform as per the wordings of the author shakespear.i am sure everyone hide their feelings on their lustfull feelings on desdemona because it is natural as a student if one fall in love with desdemona before othello actually marries her.i could never cherish he being married to her at all,it is as if right from the first scene we consider desdemona as ours not as his and his possessiveness over her movement and other actions boils in us to kill him by our mind itself.this is the only drama i feel shakespear has given uniform feeling by male readers and woman folks envy and feel for the mascualine and manly feeling of othello.in todays world othello can be considered as Ravana ,because we consider desdemona as sita,in ramayana.how does desdemona look like,let me express,she wears a white long dress,tight and the falls behind her because she is a royal girl.she is extremely pretty for anybodys eyes,and she is forever shy ,sparkling white teath,lush grey haired,no one ever failed to stop watching her face.when desdemona walks,or around any place,the heart beat of youngsters heart would stop.all these feelings happened to me when i read this drama but i was too shy to express to anyone and had to contain my jealousy ,exasperation of missing her in my life.from the beginning to end we hate othello and our pityness,love,sexual heat on desdemona really errupt but contained because this is a drama written so all will laugh if a reader express in open.since todays world ms members are really matured enough to agree or disagree on what i have reviewed.the author shakespears english is pure hard hit words and grammar less but lashing into our mind.an instant picture develops as the scenes are written in a pure difficult to understand.one must feel to make out if they relly love to look like desdemona.i am sure any woman if she pretend to look like desdemona men will relly put their eyes on her imagined prettyness.in one nut shell what jealousy makes in a man and ends in the death of the wife he feels so possessed.othello just cant bear anyman even near to the mnd of desdemona,that means our RAMA and othello were at par as par as suspicion was concerned,i am not comparing rama in respect of jealousy only he wanted truth on the chasitity of sita here in othello drama,this devil othello was all set to finish his wife for any reason.what ever it is shakespear has created a very deep spell as one take the book ,and till one finish desdemona is carried along with ones conciousness.this is the best drama written by the author and i cant give my judgement on other books written by the author.the reader has to set his mind to go back to three hundred years on the happenings and should finish his food and sit on a easy chair to cherish this book and i suggest infront of swimming pool one can feel desdemona in her princess dress to caress imaginary escapades on her.well what ever i have written on desdemona is still true and she will be forever my dream girl.hope others will follow same way and put aside further wordings here.
