what is the dramatic irony of othellos utterance, "excellent wretch, perdition catch my soul, but i do love thee when i love thee not, chaos is come again, lines 90 - 92
This is a great line! Iago knows that when Othello ceases to love Desdemona, he will come apart. Othello thinks in absolutes and, for all his masculinity, feels validated by Desdemona's affection. When this balance is altered, Othello becomes an emotional wreck and "chaos come again".
what do you mean when you say othello thinks in absolutes?
