The Best of the Bard: Top 10 Greatest Lines in Shakespeare
The History of Literature
Analysis of Macbeth, Othello, and Shakespeare's Language
The speaker discusses choosing Macbeth fourth, but regretting not picking 12th Night and opting for Othello instead. They appreciate a line from Othello where he says, 'I kiss the air I kill it thee' as it rhymes like a pop song and functions on multiple levels. The speaker finds the use of language satisfying, especially the play on apostrophe D in 'kiss it and kill it.' They draw parallels between Othello and Hamlet in terms of internal conflict and moral dilemmas, making Shakespeare's works relatable on a classic teenage angst level.
