Othello HELP!

[Calvin.]

So I'm writing a paper describing the role of race in shakespeare's Othello. I've already discussed how other characters treat othello because of his race and how othello views himself because of his descent. I need one more paragraph what should i talk about?

i dunno. first find on google, look at the race section:

i think is cassius and the other guy tell desdemonas father that the "moor" (othello) is tupping the white "ewe" (desdemona) and that they are making the beast with one back. if i remember correctly he gets pissed

 

[2814]

*Two backs actually.

Pretty much the openning scene in the play when they senator guy is talking with the two guards. Shakespeare suggests a great deal of beastiality when talking about the Othello. Such as:

Beast with two backs

That line where they describe the type of children Othello and Desdemona will have:

When the guards tell them to go and look for him at the Saggitary. (Sagittarius is iconoclased by a centaur - a half-man half-beast creature.

So basically your last paragraph could describe them methods in which Shakespeare attributes beastiality to Othello's race.

There are loads of others if you look for them. I just thought these were the most prominent.
