1
Let's review the plot summary of Othello.
2
The introduction of the play is set in Venice, during a time of conflict between the Ottoman Empire and Venice.
3
As the play begins, the Turks are preparing for war against the Venetians, and are likely to attack either Cyprus or Rhodes.
4
Othello, a more from North Africa and a successful Venetian general, has eloped with a young Venetian noblewoman named Desdemona.
5
Rodrigo, a gentleman who is in love with Desdemona, complains to Iago, Othello's ensign, about the secret marriage.
6
Iago has agreed to help Rodrigo court and win Desdemona, but only if Rodrigo keeps him supplied with money.
7
Iago is angry at Othello for promoting another man, Michael Cascio, to lieutenant.
8
At play's opening, Iago and Rodrigo cause a ruckus at Brabantio's home and reveal that Brabantio's daughter, Desdemona, has eloped with Othello.
9
Iago leaves before his identity is known and goes back to Othello.
10
Cassio joins them, bringing a message from the Duke of Venice
11
that Othello is required to turn back the Turkish attack on Cyprus.
12
Othello hurries to the Duke, Brabantio following along, intent on confronting Othello about Desdemona.
13
The duke, however, takes Othello's side in the matter partially due to Othello's earnest professions of love for Desdemona
14
and his description of how they fell in love.
15
Desdemona arrives and supports Othello's argument, and Brabantio is forced to accept the marriage.
16
In the rising action of the play, Othello makes arrangements to leave right away for Cyprus, and Desdemona argues successfully to accompany him.
17
The next day, Desdemona, Iago, and his wife, Emilia, Rodrigo, and Cassio arrive on Cyprus before Othello.
18
Cassio holds Desdemona's hand for a moment in greeting, and this small gesture gives Iago an idea of how to get back at both Cassio and Othello.
19
Then Othello arrives.
20
Miraculously, the Turkish ships on their way to invade Cyprus have been destroyed by a storm, so they celebrate this turn of events at a banquet that evening.
21
At the celebration, Iago convinces Cassio to get drunk, and then encourages Rodrigo to fight Cassio.
22
Montano tries to break it up, and Cassio stabs him in the leg.
23
When Othello finds out, he strips Cassio of his rank.
24
Iago suggests Cassio appeal to Desdemona, who can go to Othello on his behalf.
25
When Cassio leaves, Iago reveals to the audience that he plans to make Othello think Cassio and Desdemona are having an affair.
26
As Cassio approaches Desdemona and she asks Othello to reconsider Cassio's case, Iago Iago plants the seeds of suspicion in Othello's mind.
27
When Desdemona accidentally drops her handkerchief, Emilia picks it up and gives it to her husband.
28
Iago plants the handkerchief in Cassio's room, and Cassio finds it.
29
Later, Iago stages a scene with Cassio meant to convince Othello, observing from a hidden place just out of earshot, that Cassio is sleeping with Desdemona.
30
As a result, Othello becomes wild with jealousy.
31
While Iago orchestrates another fight between Cassio and Rodrigo, then ends up killing Rodrigo himself, Othello plans Desdemona's death.
32
That night, in the climax of the play, he smothers Desdemona in her bed.
33
In the falling action of the play, Emilia realizes it has been her husband all along, and Othello realizes he has been manipulated.
34
He tries to kill Iago, but Iago kills Emilia instead.
35
In the play's resolution, Othello kills himself, and Iago is arrested.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
