'The mind that undoes him is not Iago's but his own...' (Leavis)
'... no man could resist the circumstances of suspicion which were so artfully suggested to Othello's mind.' (Boswell)
Discuss the validity of these viewpoints in establishing who is to blame for Othello's downfall. Refer to Acts 1-3 only (unless you know the whole play, in which case you can use the whole play in response).
This is the question for the timed piece in tomorrow's (Tuesday's) lesson. You might want to listen to some or all of the debate again (below) to help you prepare. You can use your text for this piece of work.
