Essay, Othello

My 16 yr old daughter was disappointed that Othello didn't make the cut. Hamlet is the only Shakespeare. Imagine how hard it must have been to make this list! It's not surprising that many people disagree. For those of you who would add a book....what book would you remove?

Shakespeare covered so much more than Tolkien. Othello and The Merchant of Venice, just for a few examples, hit areas of the human experience that I don't see in Tolkien. In a physical fight: well, I wouldn't back Will. And hobbits are harmless. (Aren't they?)

Finished The Folger Library Edition of Othello. Can't say it was one of my favorites. Iago's motivation seems out of line with his actions and Othello changes too completely in just two days. But then Shakespeare was a working playwright with deadlines and not his eye on being enshrined by the ...

Iago is named after . . . well, Iago, the villain from Othello. His now deceased sister was Isabella from Measure for Measure (but we're not saying he murdered her).

Othello is the benchmark standard of jealousy; Bertie considers that Stilton, who thinks Bertie wants to steal Florence from him, is even more jealous than Othello.
