othello-12/14
One thing that Shakespeare does in the book is the assonance where all the male characters names end with o and all the female characters names end with a. i think that this affects the story in that it sort of creates a divide between male and female like two seperate groups and I think that shows up a little in the book like the difference between male and female and how one treats the other. Another thing is the sentence structure and how he has a lot of long sentences and I think this makes the book a little slower to read but everything is very flowy. and another thing I noticed is that there's a lot of references to animals and metaphors using animals. And this gives it the affect where he could be comparing how people are like animals, especially when they are taken over by certain emotions like jealousy and don't act civilized.
