The document provides an analysis of William Shakespeare's play Othello from an Aristotelian perspective. It summarizes that Othello fits the mold of an Aristotelian tragedy through his characterization as a renowned protagonist whose fortunes change from good to bad through his own mistakes. Specifically, Othello's trusting and jealous nature makes him vulnerable to manipulation by Iago, which ultimately leads to Othello murdering his beloved wife Desdemona due to his lack of knowledge about her faithfulness. The document analyzes how Othello exemplifies Aristotelian tragic principles such as hamartia through his fatal character flaw of jealousy.
