A Doll's House Psychoanalysis

Women’s Issues in the Past In both Trifles and A Doll’s House the reputation and appearances of the two women are examined within nineteenth century marriages.

To provide evidence for this accusation, Iago plants a handkerchief of Desdemona's in Cassio's house. Othello's anger and insecurity allow him to be persuaded very easily by this flimsy evidence that he believes proves Desdemona's guilt. In order for this plan to work out, Iago had to kill his wife, Cassio, and Roderigo. Much like Roderigo and Othello, Iago's'jealousy catches up with him and he is tortured to death for the murder of his

Haply some poison yet doth hang on them, To make me die with a restorative” V,iii,173-78. We see how Juliet, without any hesitation to the matter decides that she is going kill herself in order to be with Romeo. This shows us how irrational she has become, as she is willing to end her life, rather than continuing her life without Romeo. Moreover, this shows the amount of anger from her parents because they forced her to marry Paris despite her secret love for Romeo.

Then, Othello believes that Desdemona is guilty and swears to get revenge on her. With Othello’s jealousy, everyone notices him acting strangely even Iago showed concern. Cassio finds the handkerchief in his room with no idea it belong to Desdemona and asks Bianca, his lady friend, to duplicate it. Othello tries to control his strong emotion by not punishing Desdemona too harshly, but Iago acts made him extremely furious. Iago

The more Dido goes mad with love and becomes “irrational”, the more Aeneas holds on his duty. For instance, after Jove sends his messenger, Aeneas “yearns to be gone, to desert this land he loves, thunderstruck by the warnings.” (4:42), and when Dido asks why, he says “There (Italy) lies my love, there lies my homeland now. ”(4:43).

It is self-evident that there is an issue of power in Othello and in modern day society; the most indisputable one being the emotions beyond reasons and their power over us. It is a non-societal power, yet it is the catalyst for our behaviour. Shakespeare exaggerates the means of power in our emotions and the response we have to it, such as confounding them with love.

Othello illustrates how jealousy forces the characters to go to greater lengths than one normally would to satisfy their desire for vengeance.

Othello is manipulated by the jealous villain Iago as he encourages him to misinterpret what he sees, steering Othello away from the truth. Othello is susceptible to Iago's ploys due to the fact that he himself is so honest and straightforward, “For when my outward action doth demonstrate the

In Act 2, scene 1, lines 252-255 Iago explains, “Now, for want of these required conveniences, her delicate tenderness will find it-self abused, begin to heave gorge, disrelish and abhor the Moor.” From the beginning of the play, readers know that Iago hates Othello because he believed it was unfair that someone who was not as experienced in war was promoted as lieutenant, instead of him. Iago was plotting to get Othello to believe that his wife was a strumpet. He knew that this would anger and sadden Othello but he wanted to carry it out anyways, all while still making sure the Moor thought Iago was being loyal to

Or else the devil will make a grandsire of you. / Arise, I say! (I.I.97-101) Iago uses racial slurs and racism to let Brabantio know that a Moor has his daughter. Later in the play, Brabantio died because of his daughter’s elopement with Othello.

Tybalt seen Romeo at the party and was very determined to “strike him dead” (1.5.67) because of their family feud. Juliet calls love a monster for making her fall in love with her “loathed enemy.” (1.5.155)

So to try and cheer up their daughter they try and marry her to another man to get her spirits up. This supports that Tybalt is to blame because his death leads to a lot more events like the capulet finding out and being heartbroken, but Juliet is even more sad because Romeo has been punished to exile but her parents do not know that they are married. So to try and cheer up their daughter they try and marry her to another man to get her spirits

The High Anxieties of a High Society When the set of rules placedin a society begins to seep into the private affairs of an individual, they instinctively begin to make choices that best submit to these expectations, rather than what is practical for them.
