Why did iago want cassio to ask Desdemona for help in restoring Othello's faith in cassio?

If Desdemona asked a favour on Cassio's behalf, it would look to Othello like she was doing it out of an improper love for Cassio. The harder she argues, the more suspicious it seems to Othello.


How will Iago's advice to Cassio work in Iago's favor?

Iago advises Cassio to ask Desdemona to plead on his behalf. This will help Iago poison Othello's mind, as Desdemona will appear to be doing so out of her (illicit) love for Cassio.


What advice does Desdemona ask of Iago HOW DOES HE RESPOND?

Desdemona is not at all successful although she tries really hard. Unfortunately Iago has set things up so that the harder she pleads the more Othello thinks she must be doing so because he is her lover, and the less likely he is to grant her request. It was a lost cause from the start.


How does Iago treat his wife?

Iago convinces him that his wife Desdemona is having an affair with Cassio, his lieutenant. Thus, enraging him and blinding him with jealousy. These thoughts eventually cause Othello to kill Desdemona and fill him with hatred towards Cassio.


Why did Iago want Roderigo to anger Cassio?

Iago's plan is to make Cassio drunk and get him into a brawl that will ruin Cassio's reputation and cause him to lose his position. He urges Roderigo to provoke Cassio "to put our Cassio in some action/ that may offend the isle." As usual,Roderigo is duped by Iago's manipulative words and agrees to do this, even though all he ends up with is a sound beating from Cassio. Iago, however, succeeds in getting Cassio dismissed from his lieutenancy to Othello, which plays in toIago's master plan to ruin Othello.

What did Iago do well in the play Othello?

He is very good at conning people into doing what he wants them to do and thinking what he wants them to think. This is not just Othello, but also Roderigo, and Cassio, and Emilia, and anyone else he comes in contact with. He manipulates them, and they love him for it.

Is justice served at the end of the play Othello?

Partly. Cassio is justly restored to favour after being entrapped into a crime. Iago will be punished. These things are just and fair. But Desdemona is dead, who was absolutely innocent. Emilia, who unwittingly helped Iago but redeemed herself by revealing what she knew, died for courageously doing so. And Othello, who is as much a victim as they are, is dead also. The unfairness of these deaths cannot be made right by punishing Iago. Nothing can bring them back to life.


Why does cassio get Othello's estate?

In Act II Scene 3, Iago knows that Cassio's weakness is unable to tolerate alcohol therefore he targets this weakness and persuades Cassio to drink with him. At first Cassio said no to Iago's offer because he was assigned to be on duty at night however, he ends up drinking anyways because of Iago's persistent persuasion. Iago's plan was slowly progressing. After a great amount of alcohol consumption, Cassio became drunk and went to the washroom by himself. While he was doing his business, an unknown man which was Roderigo disguised with a beard, pushed him from behind. This action angers Cassio therefore he chases the "unknown man". At the same time, Iago was talking to Montano about Cassio's drinking problem. Cassio runs into Iago and Montano, a fight occurs and Montano gets injured as Iago stabs him without anyone else noticing. The fight causes Othello to appear and strips Cassio of his rank because "he" injured Montano.


Is Othello's real problem his own jealousy?

Do you mean to ask if there's literally a green-eyed monster in Othello? If that's what you're asking, then no. The "green-eyed monster" refers to the popular saying which says a persons eyes "turn green" when filled with the feeling of jealousy. One of the main themes in Othello is jealousy, along with deceit and betrayal. There is no physical green-eyed monster in Othello. I don't know what you where expecting but the answer is simply an emotion, jealousy used in the term as " i see the green eyed monster" green being a negative colour to other people
