   Should Othello be played today?

   What is my critique of Othello?

   • My own critique of Othello is situated in apostmodern moment that foregrounds discursivity as constitutive of the self and the worlds the self inhabits.

   Why is Othello a good book?

   • Othello offers an expansive view of the ways in which language works against certain speakers and is twisted and perverted in the mouth of a dishonest practitioner. By playing on the ambiguities and ironies inherent in language, Iago is able to use the seductive dimensons of discourse to achieve diabolical ends.
