Who Is Desdemona's Jealousy

Jealousy will adjust the way you look at people, moreover jealousy makes you envy someone, for their talents, looks, or even personality. They may transform from sweet and caring to becoming rude and obnoxious. Othello from the play, written by Shakespeare experienced this jealousy with his wife, Desdemona. In the eyes of Othello, he believes that Desdemona has a sweet and gentle personality, but his jealousy makes him think otherwise.
