Comparing Uncertain Vision in “Othello” and “Oedipus Rex”
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the fact that Uncertain vision serves as a unifying theme in both Sophocles’ “Oedipus Rex” and Shakespeare’s “Othello” but there is a difference in how each of the authors present their characters’ overall vision and the direction of that vision. What they perceive or understand is not necessarily what they are seeing. Therefore, interpretation serves as the primary component that makes the difference in how the final outcomes are achieved but the end result is still disastrous. Both men lose everything. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Connections: Othello and Much Ado About Nothing.

(5 pp) Would you think that an author who wrote a lot might start repeating himself, or would you guess that if an author writes bout the quality of the human condition, that certain elements are bound to repeat. If you guessed the last of the two thoughts you would be closer to a connection between the two Shakespearean plays Othello and Much Ado About Nothing.

Dark Keys to Shakespearean Conflict
[ send me this paper ]
(10 pp) In any tragedy, it is tension or conflict which keeps the play moving. Modern jargon would call it "spin" and "counterspin." In this discussion we will compare the sources of conflict in two plays, Othello and Macbeth. Iago and Lady Macbeth are our major obsessives,the first prompted by an apparent frustration with being passed over in military command, yet disguising a darker personal agenda, and the second, Lady Macbeth with a compulsive need for power and title.
