I must admit that I am not looking forward to yet another discussion next week in which I have the more difficult side to argue! ;o)
As I read through Othello and perform research regarding who the Moors actually were, particularly concerning their race, I find it difficult to believe that race does not play a large part in Brabantio's objection to the union between Othello and Desdemona. By all other accounts, Othello is a well-respected and successful man who has not particularly even raised an eyebrow-until he married Desdemona. Perhaps if I dig a little deeper and do a bit more research, I can come up with a good argument for the side against racial implications in Othello. I wish myself luck (please wish me luck as well if you are reading this) and bid this blog adieu, for the hour of sleep is soon passing and exhaustion overcometh me! Adieu...adieu...and adieu!
