Othello, The Tragic Hero

          Interesting as it as, Othello catches my attention every page I read about Iago's little plot on all the characters in the story. Up to this point, I really don't know what's Iago's intention in getting revenge upon Othello. He says that Othello has chosen an officer of no battle experience and has probably slept with his wife even though he seems to not love her at all. After his failure in the first scheme, Iago seems to be cautious and more attentive in his next plot that is so far successful. He has gotten Cassio fired from his position and yet, he still continues to drag this drama on throughout the story. But what do we know? Its a tragic story, someone has to die in order to end this tragedy, but who would it be? More likely so, Iago may reach his death if his plans are revealed since everything is planned out properly and neatly. The most hilarious part about Iago is that he feels that his actions are evil and has been creating sins upon himself, but he defies these evil and sinful acts as an aide for his fellow friends that he "love" so much.
