Jane (he likes her), Holden vs. curiosity (alcohol, cigarettes), Holden vs. society (he has problems with people) Theme: Innocence is precious.

Othello, William Shakespeare Othello (protagonist), Desdemona (his wife), Iago (antagonist) Backstabbing—manipulation Irony: dramatic irony (Iago’s soliloquies—speeches that only the audience can hear) Tragedy—Othello kills Desdemona out of jealousy for a fake affair
