#2 Pg. 1119

I think this play is definitely a tragedy. If you don't include Iago, it seems as though every one's lives are going horribly. There is war involved, love, both unrequited and mutual, but anything good such as love seems to get messed up. However there is one aspect of tragedies that I have not noticed in Othello. No one is dead yet. This is odd, especially for Shakespearean work. Surely someone will die soon, right?
