African’s were singled out in 17th century norms for their distinct culture of clothing and traditions. They were known as “devils” or “villains” because the color black was associated with sinfulness and wickedness. https://prezi.com/3qafi3tyd4x0/cultural-context-of-othello/

Brabantio demolishes Othello’s name, referring to his being black and even going so far as to accuse him of using magic. Magic is usually a foreign topic, so it can be seen as racially charged when Brabantio said it.🐸
(1.2.64-85)

Shakespeares perspective on communication try’s to strive for clarity and his use of outside sources and creating interesting narratives from the perspective of a feminist theory and with an eye on material culture. Shakespeare makes the characters very manipulative and naïve toward each other and showing jealousy and rage. The communication issue between Iago and othello is much more evident when Iago gives othello miscommunication. Othello weakness is communication is that he actually doesn’t know anyone properly and he’s and outsider making him his weakness and the communication with Iago and Cassio and othello causes jealousy.

Shakespeare uses figure language like imagery to help the reader visualize the play by adding creativity .In act 1 of Othello, Lago describes Othello as a “old black ram” and “Barbary horse”. This makes the reader imagine the race and identity of Othello. Also though out the play women’s characteristics are formed around imagery. When Iago explains Desdemona he basically calls her and the other women nothing but whores. Telling the audience how woman were shown as during Shakespeare’s time period. Lastly, Imagery is used to describe Iago’s evilness as poison and sleeping aids. This reveals Iago’s characteristics of being the villain in the play.]]> 2020-02-11 17:56:21 UTC https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/443865629 Representation https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/443865916 Fai, Gabriel, Nayeli, & Briana ]]> 2020-02-11 17:56:41 UTC https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/443865916 Miguel and Sierra https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/443866527 identity ]]> 2020-02-11 17:57:26 UTC https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/443866527 Transformation- https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/443867044 Briana V., Jalissa P., Robert R., Destiny R.

In othello there are certain scenes or possibly one scene in the play that transforms the meaning of the text. In (2.3.375) of Othello by Shakespeare it’s when the dramatic irony transforms the entire play, and just leads up to what’s next. It states “ Two things are to be done: My wife must move for Cassio to her mistress ;. I’ll set her on; Myself awhile draw the Moor apart And bring him jump when he may find Cassio Soliciting his wife.” In the quote what’s being said is Iago’s plan. The way this transforms the entire play is now we know what to expect later on in the play, it would seem as if everything will be happening for a reason, when Othello coincidently runs into all these signs. Iago will build up to break him. It actually works in the end due to Othello being so insecure that Iago does get to him. 
In (3.3.115-125) Iago is now transforming yet again to a nice, intelligent, even loving man towards Othello. Continue reading and

In the play, men are superior and women are inferior, and the women who don’t have a voice, or try to speak up for themselves, are killed by the men that “own” them. “Iago: Be wise, and get you home. Emilia: I will not... Iago: Villainous 🤬! ... [Iago kills his wife]” (Act 5 scene 2) Not only does Iago kill Emilia, but Othello also kills Desdemona, both for reasons concerning the men’s opinions and the lack of communication. ]]> 2020-02-12 18:04:21 UTC https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/444528232 Representation dankassfai02 https://padlet.com/marinasantos955/7gp130dpinog/wish/444791256 Gabriel, Fai, Nayeli, & Brianna

1. This quote represents racism, and that blood line was strictly kept in family they didn’t want to mix.
Zounds, sir, you're robb'd; for shame, put on 
your gown; 
Your heart is burst, you have lost half your soul; 
Even now, now, very now, an old black ram 
Is topping your white ewe. Arise, arise; 95
Awake the snorting citizens with the bell, 
Or else the 🤬 will make a grandsire of you: 
Arise, I say. ( Lines 84 - 90, A1, S1)

2. This quote represents gender roles because women were taught by society to simply serve a man.
Tis not a year or two shows us a man.
They are all but stomachs, and we all but food;
They eat us hungerly, and, when they are full,
They belch us. ( Lines 120 - 123, A3, S4 )

3. This quote represents society standards of women during the 1570s in Venice that affected Othello’s fears. During this scene Shakespeare includes a prostitute named Bianca. When Iago says this, Othello  believes his wife, Desdemona could fall into promiscuity.
A huswife that by selling her desires 
Buys herself bread and clothes. ( Lines 110 - 112, A4, S1 )
