"Your napkin (handkerchief) is too little, (He puts the handkerchief from him, and it drops.) Let it alone. Come, I'll go in with you" III.iii.288-290.
"Lend me thy handkerchief" / "Here, my lord." / "That which I gave you." / "I have it not about me." / "Not?" / "No indeed, my lord." / "That's a fault." III.iv.46-49.
Alright Othello, this, right here. You see this? This is why I am a proud member of Team Iago! You are bashing your wife for losing the "napkin" that you gave her despite the fact that you were there when it happened! Shame hypocrite is not a literary device. I think that this whole Act would be a good use of dramatic irony though. If there is only one thing that I like about Shakespeare writings, it would have to be the fact that he blatantly tells the reader what is about to happen and why people are doing what they do.
Back to my hatred of Othello, this is kind of like that Bumblebee story in my mind. It's really annoying that we had Bumblebee who never did anything, but the narrator was just as guilty in his never making him do anything. Othello is just a piece in Iago's game of Othello.Not to sound racist, but Othello is that black piece in the middle of Iago's complete annihilation of Othello's reputation. Ironically enough, Iago has now had Othello wreck Cassio's reputation too. This whole dramatic irony situation really makes me get annoyed with Othello when I read because I just watch Iago be a genius, but I can't help but notice how everyone is turning away from each other. Literally just talking about the situation would be enough to figure out all of these lies, but I suppose this is a story and people just aren't as smart as
I just "Loled" when I realized that I used dramatic irony to describe a drama.
