Tragedy is mostly seen in characters pure and innocent. The deaths of those whom are innocent have a blindness to see the deceitfulness in others. Characters die who do not deserve their unfortunate fates. Desdemona is the heart of Iago’s plan and her loyalty to Othello eventually leads to her death bed. Emilia’s husband is the villain she hates, but giving him the one item he needs dooms everyone. Othello falls into Iago’s plan as soon as his fatal flaw of jealousy comes into play. In the tragic play Othello, by William Shakespeare, the innocent characters Desdemona, Emilia, and Othello are lead to their demise because they are manipulated into trusting Iago. Desdemona is loyal and caring, which blinds her from Iago’s manipulation.†¦show more content†¦Ultimately, Iago manipulates Othello and takes advantage of Desdemona’s sweet and pure essence to begin his plan. Coupled with Emilia’s obedience to Iago, his ploy can finally convinc e Othello of Desdemona’s unfaithfulness.

However, Emilia picks up Desdemona’s handkerchief, with no thought, only that it will please her husband, â€Å"what he will do with it /heaven knows, not I; /I nothing but please his fantasy,† (OTH.III.III.297-289). Subsequently, this handkerchief may not have much meaning to Emilia at this moment, but once she finally discovers the truth about her husband, she immediately accuses her husband of being a villain, and dies by his hands. Correspondingly, Emilia is also loyal to her husband, to such an extent as to lie to Desdemona about where her handkerchief has gone. As Desdemona worryingly searches for her handkerchief, Emilia denies knowing where she could have lost it, and suggests a different reason for Othello’s uneasiness, â€Å"I know no madam†¦ /Is he not jealous?† (OTH.III.IV.14, 20). Emilia knows where the handkerchief has gone, but remains silent because her husband, Iago has told her to. As a result of Emilia’s loyalty Iago does not need to worry about others discovering where Othello’s handkerchiefShow MoreRelatedThe Great Gatsby Analysis5626 Words   |  23 Pagesyoung man from Minnesota, moves to New York in the summer of 1922 to learn about the bond business.
