2. Iago explains how he will act with Othello now that he has been "disrespected". "In following him, I follow but myself...I am not what I am!"
Meet Brabantio!
Iago and Roderigo go to Desdemona's house. What do you think is going on in the following quote:
What ho, Brabantio! Awake! Theives! Theives! Look to your house, your daughter and your bags! Theives! Theives!
Prepare yourself. The images and language they use are graphic and disgusting! Why?
Will Brabantio take the bait?
Why does Iago leave the scene?
Homework: Read to the end of this scene and answer the reading questions.
