Vouch with me, heaven, I therefore Othello ''beg it not
To please the palate of my appetite,  Nor to comply with heat the young affects
In my defunct and proper satisfaction. 
But to be free and bounteous to her mind, And heaven defend your good souls, that you think I will your serious and great business scant When she is with me. No when light-winged toys OF feathered Cupid seel with wanton dullness My speculative and officed instrument...''

This is not the case, Othello is a great man and general of Venice, he seduced her with his manhood, reputation and Honor, contrary to what Branbantio is stating, which is a society prejudice that all moors or black skinned man is directly bad.]]> 2017-11-17 14:52:45 UTC https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/208129845 bc01 https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/208132901 Iago ''...and asked him humbly to make me his lieutenant, the second in command. And I know my own worth well enough to know I deserve that position. But he wants to have things his own way, so he sidesteps the issue with a lot of military talks and refuses their requests. ''I've already chosen my lieutenant,'' he says. And who does he choose? A guy who knows more about numbers then fighting! This guy from Florence named Michael Cassio. He has a pretty wife but he can't even control her. And he's definitely never commanded men in battle. He's got no more hands-on knowledge of warfare than an old women-unless you count what he's read in books, which any peace-lover can do. His military understanding is all theory, no practice. But Cassio's been chosen over me. My career is cut short by some bookkeeper, even though the general saw my fighting skills first-hand in Rhodes and Cyprus. This accountant is now lieutenant, while I end up as the Moor's flagbearer.''

He describes Michael Cassio in a really bad way, talking about all his flaws and explains why he is way better than Cassio. It shows how jealous he is of Cassio for getting the position he wanted so much.]]> 2017-11-17 15:06:36 UTC https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/208137712 bc01 https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/209140407 Iago : I may seem to love and obey him, but in fact, i'm just serving him to get what I want. If m outward appearance started reflecting what I really felt, soon enough i'd be wearing my heart on my sleeve for birds to peck at. No it's better to hide it. I'm not who I appear to be (p.7).]]> 2017-11-21 15:35:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/209140407 bc01 https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/209141624 In this part of the scene we can see how Iago hides his true identity by making false appearances next to Othello even though he will hate.]]> 2017-11-21 15:37:22 UTC https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/209141624 bc01 https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/209143747 Iago : ''Come on, come on. You women are all the same. You're as pretty as pictures when you're out in public, but in your own houses you're as noisy as jangling bells. In your own kitchens you act like wildcats. You make yourselves sound like saints when you're complaining about something, but you act like devils when someone offends you. You don't take your jobs as housewives seriously, and you're shameless hussies in bed. ]]> 2017-11-21 15:41:58 UTC https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/209143747 bc01 https://padlet.com/bc01/u54hdi1dura4/wish/209148554 Iago describes his view on women and how they really are in life based on his own opinion.

I've lost my reputation, the longest-living and truest part of myself! Everything else in me is just animal-like. Oh , my reputation, Iago my reputation!

Iago : ''I swear I thought you meant you'd been hurt physically. Your physical health matters more than your reputation. A reputation is useless and fake quality that others impose on us. You haven't lost it unless you think you have. There are lots of ways to get on the general's good side again. You've been discharged because he's angry, and because he's obliged to do so for policy reasons, not because he dislikes you. He's got to beat up the weak to frighten the strong. Go to him, petition him.
