Transcription
• more references to female sexual mechanics: ‘miscarriage’ The play is full of them!
• the fight scene is all fragments and messy – don’t try to make the rhythm make sense
• Bianca as scapegoat, Emilia participates in slut-shaming – an example of the lowest on the totem pole taking each other our and not focusing on the real problem above them
• failed assassination of Cassio – he says his leg is cut in two – hamstring cut?
• Roderigo’s death – later they say he “came to” enough to tell about Iago’s involvement – first example of not-quite-death (like Desdemona later)
