A major difference between the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original story "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" and its film version relates to the story's setting. In the original story, we see Holmes and Watson meeting with Helen Stoner in their shared 221B Baker Street apartment. In the film, Holmes works in a modern office equipped with the latest technology. However, the setting of the crime scene is the same in the original story and in the film. It takes place at Stoke Moran. The Adventure of the Speckled Band tells one of the cases of the detective Sherlock Holmes, the investigation of a mysterious death and the suspicioun that someone else might die under the same circumstances. Both the book and the adaptation follow the plot, diverging mostly on the resources Holmes has at his disposal, like a mordern office with secretaries in the adaptation and only a simple apartment in the book.
The R.ape of the Lock is a mock-heroic narrative poem written by Alexander Pope, using the heroic couplet.
A couplet refers to a stanza consisting of two lines only, and heroic means that each of these two lines is written using rhyming iambic pentameters. Iamb means that an unstressed syllable is followed by a stressed one. Pentameter means that there are 5 meters in one line (penta = 5), and given that one meter equals two syllables, pentameter is a line consisting of 10 syllables.
Iago thinks that a person must have experiences in wars and battles with an additional experience in general knowledge as he himself got into the position on this basis while Cassio is simply a tactician and a scholar. Iago uses his leadership position to begin a raging campaign against Othello and Cassio.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Iago is a character developed by Shakespeare in the play "Othello". He is defined as a manipulative man who develops strategies and plans to destroy the lives of those who wronged him.
- The rage starts when Iago becomes upset about not being promoted and seeks revenge on Othello (his head lieutenant) and Cassio the person who took his position.
- Othello is defined as a confident leader in the play and a person who is very much needed by the government.
- Iago feels that he is more qualified than Cassio for the position and that he was betrayed by Othello.
- Iago was the third-ranking officer under Othello.
