Why Desdemona
Prompt. Write a 2000/2500 word research paper discussing why Desdemona, who is a feisty woman, not afraid to defy her father and follow her husband to a war zone, becomes so passive when her husband shows he doesn’t trust her? Discuss by comparing her to other strong female characters you have encountered in Shakespeare’s plays: are strong female characters inevitably destined to be cowed by society (or even to die)?
