10/7 Do Now – Take out your word homework and copy down the following questions in your notebook. Who uses the word most often? How does the connotation of the word change depending on character, act and/or scene? Which of the definitions from the OED/AHD and the LEME fits the context(s) best? How do the alternative meanings make sense within the rest of the play?

Agenda 1. Act 1, Scene 3 Presentations 2.Character Analysis 3.Watch Othello through the end of Act I. 4.Act II, Scene I 4. Watch Othello through the end of Act I.

Scene Presentations Let’s hear one summary of the scene, all three quotations, and your predictions/connections.

Reflective Writing: Character Analysis (10 min.) At this point in the play, is Othello a sympathetic (likeable) or unsympathetic character? Don’t forget to say why. What do we think of Desdemona, based on what we know of her so far? What are her strengths, weaknesses, virtues, and faults? Othello is an outsider in Venice. How does this affect what is going on?

Text vs. Film As we watch the DVD Othello take notes on the characters. OthelloRoderigoIagoBrabantioDesdemona Text Film

Getting the Beat Prose No rhythm or rhyme Similar to our speaking & “book” writing Verse Like poetry Can rhyme or not A certain number of syllables per line

Verse Blank Verse Doesn’t rhyme “measured” verse (same number of syllables per line” Iambic Pentameter Iamb = an unstressed and stressed syllable in a metrical foot Penta = five "my BIRTHday IS the THIRT-i-TH of JUNE.“

Identifying meter in Othello “If she be air and wise, fairness and wit, The one’s for use, the other useth it” (II.i ) “If she be black, and thereto have a wit, She’ll find a white that shall her blackness {hit.}” (II.i )

Act 2, Scene 1, lines st Gentleman/Emilia – 2 nd Gentleman/ Desdemona – 3 rd Gentleman - Iago/Messenger – Montano - Cassio -

Was there a sonnet in the scene we just read? (this is what Shakespearean scholars call a problem sonnet because is only 12 lines, much like Shakespeare’s Sonnet no.126)

What do these lines tell us? About Iago? About Emilia? About Desdemona?

Homework 1.Read Act 2, Scene 1 slowly and carefully. (Scene Presentation?) Pay close attention to lines What do these lines tell us about: Iago? Emilia? Desdemona? What do they tell us about their relationship? **Keep looking for examples of your words**
