Re: Othello. There are several discussions about the "messiness" of truth seeking. I'm quoting from bad memory here, but Desdemona says she can't understand why someone would be unfaithful and asks Emilia if she would cheat on her husband "for all the world" and Emilia replies that of course she would because if you have all the world, you can justify whatever you want to do. Othello is one of the most important works for the Trump era.
