Othello의 판결 행위에 대하여

This paper tries to discuss the acts of judgement of Othello. These are the findings of the study. One of them is the decision by the Duke on Brabantio's complaint against Othello. The Duke quite unfairly dismisses it on the basis of Desdemona's testimony and of the urgency of the state. Next one is Othello's judgement of Cassio for his commotion. Othello rushes to his decision to dismiss Cassio, without a full and correct inquiry of the situation. At the near end of the play, Othello, identifying himself as a just judge and executioner, judges and damns Desdemona for her faithfulness and kills her. Finally, Othello damns and executes himself after acknowledging belatedly the chastity and innocence of Desdemona as well as his dreadful folly.
