Today we'll be looking at Emilia before moving on to Act IV.

1. Why doesn't Emilia tell Desdemona about the handkerchief?
2.  Is it unlikely that she is truly unaware of Iago's plot regarding the handkerchief?

IV
1. How does Iago enable Othello's jealousy in IV.i?
2. How do we know that this has utterly unraveled Othello's character?
3. How do the themes of Othello to this point appear similar to Shakespearean comedy?
4. Is Emilia actually aware of Iago's plot in IV.ii? Is she playing coy, or is she genuinely naive?
5. What is the meaning behind Desdemona's song in IV.iii?
6. What can we infer about Emilia and Desdemona's character based on their conversation about infidelity that follows Desdemona's song in IV.iii?
7. What meaning can we extract from Emilia's final comment before she leaves Desdemona for the night in IV.iii?
