Roderigo.
Othello is plain-speaking, honest, and forthright.
"an old black ram / Is tupping your white ewe" Act 1, Scene 1
He is ordered to go to the duke.
One paradox in Act 2, Scene 1 of Othello is when Iago says, "I am not what I am." This statement is paradoxical because Iago is known to be deceitful and manipulative, so his claim that he is not what he appears to be creates a sense of irony and doublespeak.
We hear about Desdemona in the first scene when Iago tells Brabantio that she has eloped with Othello. She makes her first entrance in Act 1 Scene 3 and her first line is "My lord, I do perceive here a divided duty."
This quotation is from Act 1 Scene 1 of Othello.
A messenger in Act 1 Scene 3 calls them "Ottomites".
Othello - Act 1, Scene 2 BRABANTIO O thou foul thief, where hast thou stow'd my daughter?
The story takes place in Venice and in Cyprus.
In Act 2 Scene 1, someone says that they are in "Veronessa" but there is no such place in Cyprus.
Iago believed that Othello slept with his wife, Emilia. He states in Act 1, scene 1. "I hate the moor, and its thought abroad that twixt my sheets he has done my office" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iago's becomes enraged because Othello has selected another officer, Cassio, to be his lieutenant, and Iago also believed that Othello slept with his wife, Emilia.
In Act 5 of Romeo and Juliet, Romeo, Juliet, Paris, and Mercutio all die. Romeo dies by drinking poison, Juliet dies by stabbing herself, Paris dies in a duel with Romeo, and Mercutio dies during a street fight with Tybalt.
