Feminine Perspective within Othello

Oslon's women's view on William Shakespeare's tragedy 'Othello', the character of men far exceeds the character of women. This could lead to oversight of women. Do not let this happen - think about the same thing in this article. Robert B. Heilmann in the article of "Witt and magic: Othello's way" talks Emiya, wife of Iago in the play. Her personality is related to Shake Spear's wife's devotion and the concept of marital relations (not to mention its relationship).

William · Shakespeare 's "Othello" can be read from the perspective of feminism. Feminist analysis of Othello's play makes it possible to judge women's different social values ​​and positions in Elizabethan society. Othello is an example of the patriarchal expectation of the Elizabethan era. Practice of society, patriarchal marriage privilege, and suppression and restriction of femininity. According to the Elizabethan or Shakespeare established in the Renaissance society, women are married. As a single occupation, marriage takes a lot of responsibility for housekeeping. In addition, women are silent, chivalrous, and should be obedient to husbands, fathers, brothers and all men. Since women are considered to be inferior to men both physically and mentally, the patriarch proves that the subordinate status of women is a natural order.

Today, feminists believe that women's "feminization" is not "nature". History is trying to hide women's social expectations as part of natural law. But Othello women are former feminists and seem to only enhance their ideological expectations for women through their own actions. But this is not that a woman in a drama will not question men at all. When she talked to Desdeimona at the end of the fourth act, Emilia's view on men was very serious. In a speech reminiscent of Sherlock 's eyes of the Jews, Emilia believes that women are physically different from men.

Perhaps the most similar to Othello feminism is Emilia. Through the script, women unconsciously become three-dimensional in the mind's heart, affecting many readers and critics. After all, Emilia cut off this and paid the last sacrifice for the truth. And it revealed that Shakespeare did not show feminine charm when describing women negatively.

Othello women are synonymous with Venetian social standards. Othello has only three female characters: Desdemona, Emilia, Bianca, but not only in Shakespeare's Othello but in society as a whole, these women play the role of making readers understand the way women describe their readers. Women are only considered as property. Othello said, "I have assigned my wife for my relocation" (I.3.283), after the Duke allowed Othello to go to Cyprus to Desdemona, and it was with Desdeimona It means property.
