In this act, what scenes (or speeches) contain memorable dramatic irony?
What will be an ideal response?
- Iago’s “I am a very villain else” (IV, i, 125) could be considered a classic instance, as could his comment to Lodovico about Othello’s shocking behavior: “It is not honesty in me to speak / What I have seen and known” (IV, i, 263–264). At IV, ii, 137–140, Emilia speculates that some lying villain has turned Othello against Desdemona, not realizing that the villain in question is the man she’s speaking to. Also in Scene ii, Iago speaks more presciently than he knows when he tells Roderigo, “If thou the next night following enjoy not Desdemona, take me from this world with treachery and devise engines for my life” (lines 212–213); Roderigo does not, of course, “enjoy” Desdemona, and Iago is to be taken from this world (though not with treachery).
