SWAT- The Movie

In Othello, Shakespeare forms the villainous character, Iago through his complex language. Iago shows his evil nature towards Roderigo through his use of demeaning animal imagery. Iago also uses an extended metaphor to try and trick the ignorant Roderigo and (unknowingly to Roderigo), insults him. Lastly, Iago uses repetition to beguile Roderigo to keep paying him. Iago’s slyness is clearly seen through his deceiving language towards the end of Act I.

In Shakespeare’s Othello, Iago represents the transformational style of leadership because he is influential, assertive and inspires a shared vision. Iago’s desires are to change and or transform individuals throughout the play. He illustrates this concept as he deceived Roderigo into thinking that Desdemona holds affection for him. The purpose of which is to motivate his mate to cooperate in his plan. Iago has his own jealous motives for hating Othello and Cassio, yet he strongly drags Roderigo to his side. He develops feelings of hate and revenge. He gets Roderigo to dislike Cassio by making Roderigo jealous of Cassio's chances with Desdemona, he states, “Desdemona is directly in love with him, didst thou not see her paddle with the palm of his hand? Didst not mark that?”(II.i.214-215,246-246). Iago emphasizes his belief that Roderigo

In Shakespeare’s play, Othello, several incidents occur that portray the purpose of Roderigo’s character. If one event is isolated from the rest, the thematic desire is lost. It is only when the events are looked at as a whole that the actual theme is obtained. Roderigo is a minor character who carries out a vital role in the play. Although Roderigo has very few lines, he plays a crucial role on a thematic level.

The capacity or ability to direct or influence the behavior of others or the course of events, in other words, Power of the People, is irrefutably manifested in Shakespeare Othello. We notice how the characters all perceive Iago, and how Iago exploits their misconceived judgment of his personality. Repetition of the epithet ‘Honest Iago’ asserts that he stands a man with moral integrity in the eyes of the other characters naming him so. This presents dramatic irony, as those he is closest to trust him entirely. Iago openly admits to Roderigo in the first scene “I am not what I Am” which makes clear the deception within the relationships Iago has with the other characters and the paradox remains true throughout the play. Iago constantly masks his real self from others because the way the people see Iago is of great significance; if he were seen as the manipulative, scheming, duplicitous man he really

While Roderigo's internal conflict can be analyzed in its own sense, it can also be used in portraying the play's main theme which is that complete trust is an invitation for betrayal. Iago's manipulation is successful in swaying Roderigo to choose Desdemona over his common sense because Roderigo decides to keep trusting Iago even after he becomes suspicious of Iago's intentions. Roderigo's situation, along with the theme of the play as well, is ironic because trust is often seen as a positive attribute. In this case, we find manipulation in the presence of trust and see that trusting others can be a dangerous thing. Roderigo's conflict relates

The relationships in Shakespeare’s plays are never simple and even less so when one narrows the field to his tragedies. In the case of Iago and Othello this complicated relationship is made more so by the interwoven theme of appearance verses reality. The idea of Iago, the wolf in sheep’s clothing, fighting both for and against his master that permeates the play. Othello, however, a seasoned warrior being unable to see through the guise is a flaw his companion takes advantage of. Iago’s hatred is the biggest mystery of this play, making the reader wish Shakespeare had written a prequel.

Iago takes on many different persona’s to enact his plan of revenge upon Othello. He plays the friend, a trustworthy and credible source of

In each case, Iago manipulates Othello into seeing and believing what he wants him to, rather than the reality of what is actually happening. In this way, Iago becomes a kind of ‘director’.

Today was just like any other old day for John he went down to the police station to clock in and had no action for a while. I guess that’s what happens when you work in swat but later that day they had a call for a drug bust near Downtown L.A. So his team suited up got in there swat vehicles and left towards the scene. When they got there it was bigger than they thought it was the building they had to assault was practically a fort there were three floors they had to clear all of the windows were boarded closed.

A SWAT, or special weapons and tactics, team is used in extraordinary situations that need more specialized procedures and increased firepower. Federal departments as well as in major police departments use SWAT teams.

Iago is a powerful predator who exploits those around him by infecting their perceptions of truth with carefully chosen fallacy. His skill in finding the proverbial chinks in others' armor allows him to skillfully weave his machinations of destroying Othello into their minds and actions; by manipulating character's perceptions of Desdemona, Iago gains the leverage he needs to exploit each character. No one is impervious to Iago's seething purpose; even Othello falls prey to Iago's suggestions and insinuations about Desdemona. Iago's constant presence as the stager, as well as his ceaseless - but subtle - reinforcement of events through narration, allows him to be the pivotal force that directs

In the first scene, Iago was seen in the middle of a conversation with Roderigo. This opening scene sets forth the key elements to understanding Iago’s basic character and the play’s conflict. The scene revealed Iago’s deep resentment toward Othello and his outlook on himself as a soldier. “And I of whom his eyes had

The movie Full Metal jacket is a realist impersonation of what it was like to be apart of the Marine Core. The total thing about resocialization is to break down a person down from what they previously were to nothing. In this film this is best when the drill instructor was going around and calling them all; “Worthless pieces of shit”. This is also a big part when he starts to give them all nicknames. This is taking away from even a person’s own name. This is stripping them down to the bone to really the first thing that they knew. But then as well as they broke these soon to be marines down they built them right back up.

Corruption overcomes the Venetian society as Iago uses his crafty skills of deceit. The plan to have Othello turn against the ones he loves is the perfect example of evil’s nature. The power struggle is evident between these two. This situation is the start to

As in almost all tragedies, especially those of William Shakespeare, the tragic hero always runs into misfortune. The play Othello is no exception. In this play, every character acquainted with the tragic hero appears to be unfortunate. While these misfortunes are oddly related to Othello, are they his fault or did each character attract them out of their own actions? To answer this daunting question, one must consider the three most unfortunate characters: Othello, Desdamona and Roderigo and analyse their downfall which eventually lead to their deaths. It is known from reading the play that Iago is the one who manipulates all three of them. Examinations of their connection with him before their deaths are necessary to answer this
