He's not a true military man and appears to be somewhere in the hierarchy of nobility as he has land that he will sell in order to "fill his purse" with money. (Which Iago eventually "bobs" for himself.") Roderigo is also very gullible and allows Iago to lead him on constantly. By Act 4, scene 3, Roderigo is ready to give up on Desdemona and go back to Venice, but Iago persuades him to try one more time for Des, and so Roderigo agrees to help kill Cassio. bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370049846 2022-11-04 12:59:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370049846 Over the course of the play, Roderigo has become increasingly disillusioned with Iago's ability to help him get Desdemona. By Act 4, Scene 3, Iago has to persuade him again that he can still help Roderigo get Desdemona and Roderigo agrees to kill Cassio to accomplish this. bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370049848 2022-11-04 12:59:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370049848 At the beginning of the play in Act 1, Roderigo comes across as Iago's sidekick who is working with him because he desires Desdemona for himself. His partnership with Iago is mostly friendly, but if they didn't have a common link, I don't think the two of them would spend much time together. bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370049850 2022-11-04 12:59:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370049850 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370055322 At first, I thought Desdemona would be very smart of Iago’s plan and would figure out that Iago was lying and manipulating her and Othello. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:03:16 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370055322 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370059775 During the play, Desdemona’s characterization didn’t change. She loved Othello and was being completely honest with Othello, she tried so hard to make Othello see that she would never cheat on Othello with Cassio, but Othello didn’t listen. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:06:29 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370059775 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370071718 As Othello goes to kill Desdemona, Desdemona is sleeping on the bed and Othello starts kissing her and wishing she didn’t cheat on him. Desdemona wakes up and her and Othello talk about Desdemona cheating. Desdemona runs to the bedroom door screaming for help, but quickly Othello takes her back to the bed and smothers her. Outside the door, Emilia is screaming in curious for Othello to open the door. As he opens the door, Emilia sees that Desdemona is on the bed dead, but then Desdemona wakes up and says to Emilia that no one killed her. Sadly, Desdemona dies and Emilia says to Othello that he murdered Desdemona. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:14:50 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370071718 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370085488 In Act 5 Scene 2: Emilia “Out, and alas, that was my lady’s voice! Help! Help ho! Help! O lady, speak again! Sweet Desdemona, O sweet mistress, speak!” Desdemona “A guiltless death I die.” Emilia “O, who hath done this deed?” Desdemona “Nobody. I myself. Farewell. Commend me to my kind lord. O, farewell.” ]]> 2022-11-04 13:23:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370085488 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370091016 In my opinion, it’s not fitting cause I just didn’t like that Othello would really accuse Desdemona cheating after her trying to convince him that she did no such thing. If Othello really did love Desdemona, I think he should have believed her and let her explain the situation with Emilia as well and see what Emilia would have said too.  ]]> 2022-11-04 13:27:39 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370091016 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370100513 In the beginning of the story, I thought Othello would be very patient with marrying Desdemona cause I thought it was strange that Othello and Desdemona were getting eloped without letting Desdemona’s father have a saying about it. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:34:00 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370100513 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370107578 Othello’s character really did change throughout the play cause towards the end, he really believed Iago saying that Desdemona cheated on Othello and saying that Cassio had Desdemona’s handkerchief and saw him use it. After Iago told Othello all that, Othello really didn’t trust Desdemona anymore and when she tried to speak to him, Othello slapped her in front of Lodovico. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:38:21 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370107578 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370114302 At the end of the play, Othello is speaking to Lodovico about regretting things he has done. Othello takes one of the Generals crossbow and fires it at himself, killing him. Othello than goes to Desdemona’s dead body and kisses her one last time and then dies. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:42:39 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370114302 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370118023 In Act 5 Scene 2: Lodovico “O bloody period!” Gratiano “All that is spoke is marred.” Othello “I kiss thee ere I killed thee. No way but this, Killing myself, to die upon a kiss.”]]> 2022-11-04 13:45:00 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370118023 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370120678 I guess this ending is fitting cause Othello felt guilty for killing Desdemona and he knew that he wouldn’t want to suffer his murder so he thought to just kill himself. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:46:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370120678 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370123624 In the beginning, I thought Iago was just going to be a nice person siding by Othello, being a great friend to Othello, all that kind of stuff. I really did like Iago at the beginning. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:48:37 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370123624 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370129801 Iago’s character changed tremendously. As soon as Othello made Cassio a Lieutenant, Iago got really jealous and planned that Desdemona would cheat on Othello with Cassio to get back on Cassio and Othello. ]]> 2022-11-04 13:52:20 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370129801 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370630603 After Othello kills Desdemona, Iago is surrounded by Generals to arrest him for murdering Emilia and possibly manipulating Othello. As the Generals take Iago away, Iago smirks as if he has finally got away with his revenge from Othello and Cassio. But, there is a possibility that Iago will be tortured for what he has done. ]]> 2022-11-04 20:19:55 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370630603 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370633025 In Act 5 Scene 2: Lodovico says to Iago “O Spartan dog, More fell than anguish, hunger, or the sea, Look on the tragic loading of this bed. This is thy work.-The object poisons sight. Let it be hid.-Gratiano, keep the house, And seize upon the fortunes of the Moor, For they succeed on you.”]]> 2022-11-04 20:23:44 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370633025 bowleskr517 https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370635733 I disagree that this ending was appropriate nor fitting because I wanted Iago to not get away with his plan and I wanted Iago dead instead of Othello, Desdemona, Emilia, and Roderigo. I really believe that Iago should have been busted from the start with this very mischief revenge. ]]> 2022-11-04 20:28:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bowleskr517/ywnkaic4ary8von8/wish/2370635733
