Personality in Othello

Emilia is a complex character, which the audience can blatantly see even in the briefness that we see her. She so desperately wants to give love, and have it be reciprocated. She is a total sweetheart. However, she is loyal and obedient, which sometimes isn’t a good thing. She is submissive to her evil husband, Iago,  even though she knows what he does is cruel and unjust. This is true except for the final actions of her life. Emilia is intelligent, and throughout the novel, becomes steadfast and firm in what she believes is right.
