Shakespeares Othello - Essay on Iago as the Hero of Othello :: GCSE English Literature Coursework

Iago as the Hero of Othello   Make an argument that Iago is the hero, not the scoundrel of this runaway. Why could we look at him that way? If he is the hero, who does this cast as the baddie and why? What values are important if Iago is the hero? In the run across Othello, m either behind and would label Iago as a villain or even an/the enemy of the play. Im not going to disagree or agree with anyones opinion on whether Iago is the/an villain or not, because everybody has their own pinnacle of view. The purpose of me writing this paper is to prove that Iago is not a villain, swell up at least not a villain in the play Othello. Iago was the main character who caused all the destruction at the end of the play, except there was always some worries going along in the play because Othello was a black man and he was married to the young, very very much younger than him, Desdemona. Who also is a white lady. Neither the less this bear witness is not about Othello and Des demona. Iago had Othello believe that Cassio was having an affair with Desdemona. There isnt really any finale or primer coating for Iagos doings, perhaps besides the only reason which he knows. And that reason none of us know of. The only conclusion i can come up with on why Iago has do what he done is because he was spirit out for himself. This reminds me of a dictum i use to always hear. Nothing is going to happen for yourself unless you shake off it happen yourself. I dont know if Iago knew what the outcome of his doings would be, which was death for him, notwithstanding i do believe he did the things he did because he was looking out for himself. Iago had to take things in his own hands and do what he felt was best. As i said before i authentically dont believe he knew what the outcome would be because nobody wants death and i believe Iago did not want death. When i cash advanceed these thesis as of whether Iago can be consider a hero, i had/have a stop that can bas e him as a hero but no for himself but for others. I dont know if that is the way i was suppose to approach the topic, but i do believe Iago was a hero.
