1. The first task asks you to examine Othello’s use of language at this point in the play.

• Consider how Othello’s language differs from that used in Act 1.
• Remind yourself of the way Othello addressed the Senate (Act 1, scene 3, lines 77-170).
• Remind yourself of the work you did on the language of Act 2, scene 1, lines 180-211, Q 2 and 3.
• Think about the reasons for this change.
