William Shakespeare gave us a very moving drama in Othello. In this comedy we witness the disappearance of a "model" of a wife and a "moor of value", Othello. We consider Moro in detail, with a professional critical contribution, in this essay. From the text of the work we can obtain some clues that complete the description of the general. In William Shakespeare: The Tragedies, Paul A. Jorgensen describes Othello's general: Though not called the "barbarian" (1.3.353), the Moor is decidedly black, probably rude, even fearful, in appearance, and a foreigner . mercenary from Mauritania in refined Venice. Although of royal blood, from the age of seven he led a restrictive and painful life, being sold into slavery and spending much of his life in the “tent camp” (1.3.85). His “occupation” (3.3.357), to a degree found in no other Shakespearean hero, is war. He can therefore speak of the great world little "more than concerns feats of cooking and battle" (1.3.87). If not for the gentle Desdemona, he would have given up a life of unsettled war and his “homeless free state / … For the valor of the sea” (1.2.26-27). (58)The first appearance of the protagonist is in scene 2 of Act 1, where Iago pathologically lies about Brabantio and himself and about the ancient's relationships with the general and about everything in general. Othello responds very coolly and confidently to the pressing question of Brabantio's crowd chasing him: “Let him do his spite. / My services that I have rendered to the lordship / will make his complaints speak. However, Cassio's party approaches first, demanding the general's "fast after fast appearance" before the Venetian council due to the Turkish attack on Cyp...... middle of paper...... rises to the she turns the tables and refutes her husband's lies, at the cost of her life. His example as a martyr inspires Othello to sacrifice his life next to Desdemona's corpse; for he “Like the vile Jew, cast away a pearl / Richer than all his tribe [. . .] .” He dies a noble death, just as he lived a noble life. Michael Cassius's assessment of his end is our assessment: “This I feared, but I thought he had no weapons; / Because he was big at heart. ”WORKS CITEDShakespeare, William. Othello.
