"And so much duty as my mother Showed
To you, preferring you before her father,
So much I challenge that I may profess
Due to the Moor my lord." pg. 41
When Brabantio calls in Desdemona to find out if Othello has "stolen" her or not. Desdemona states that she is in love with Othello. She says that she is grateful for all her father has done for her. But like her mother choose Brabanito over her fathers wishes, she will do the same.
This quote connects to love. Desdemona has such a true and unbreakable love for Othello that she would go against her own fathers wishes. One of Shakespeare's other play with a big theme like this is Romeo and Juliet. So this can only end in tragedy
prosperous: Success and well-being when it comes to money.
Do you think Brabantio is okay with Desdemona and Othello's marriage (explain why or why not)?
Desdemona and Othello's love is holding up now. But what do you think will happen later?
