Desdemona’s Love
Option 2. I spoke with the professor about the topic being about the play Othello. The thesis of the essay will be asking the question if Desdemona actually fell out of love with Othello or was it all in his head.
Does the reader know if she stopped loving him? Since there is no concrete verification of love, and it only exists as a mutual agreement, how can we tell if Desdemona stopped loving him or even loved him in the first place?
Does the audience see Othello losing Desdemona’s love? We see Othello believe he has lost her love, but does the audience believe it? What does Shakespeare show us? Does she lose her love for Othello or does she still love him? Does our doubt parallel his?
