Best Answer

In Shakespeare's play "Othello," the question of whether Othello still loves Desdemona is complex and open to interpretation. Othello's feelings towards Desdemona evolve throughout the play, influenced by jealousy, manipulation, and his own insecurities. Ultimately, Othello's love for Desdemona is overshadowed by his doubts and suspicions, leading to tragic consequences.

Oh, yes. It wouldn't be as sad if he didn't. Read or watch the scene in which he kills her again. Again and again his love and his better nature are struggling with the evil jealousy Iago has planted in him.

What does the discussion between Desdemona and emilia show about their relationship?

Othello and Desdemona are deeply in love with each other, even though they are very different. Othello has led a life of adventure; Desdemona has hardly been outside her house. Othello is middle-aged; Desdemona is in he late teens or early twenties. Othello is a foreigner who has won his place by merit; Desdemona is from an important Venetian family and has her social status by birth. Othello is dark-skinned; Desdemona is pale. Othello is also very humble, which makes him feel that he is unwarrantably lucky to have the love of a woman like Desdemona. This virtue should enhance their relationship, but it is unfortunately also the chink in Othello's armour through which Iago attacks, making Othello feel that Desdemona must also consider him unworthy of her love.
