Othello Quote Response 18

Lago: "Oh sir content you." "I follow him to serve my term upon him."(Shakespeer 940)

Lago sounds like a scurvey dog. I have worked with and around people like this. They have no honor and really do not view their actions as anything wrong. In reading on this was found to be true in the Lago helped to identify Othello as absconding with Brabantio's daughter. this kind of double dealing crap would write out well today from a corporate perspective on interoffice politics. Maybe that is part of the genious of Shakespeare in writing something several hundred years ago as profoundly relevent as Othello could be today. To give credit to LaGrande High School I did see Othello performed by Shakespearean actors from Ashland Oregon in the early eighties, a tradition the school continues today.
I wonder what impact Lago will have in the story?
