Lago and Stanley are villains in Othello and A Street Car
Named Desire. They both plan a tragic scheme to draw the main
Characters, Othello and Blanche to their 'downfall' in their plays and they start it by their their
hatred. Iago is absolutely inhuman being while Stanley showed his little conscience. They are both
the master and are brilliant. Nevertheless Lago seem tp be much smarter than Stanley in
comparsion.
Iago and Stanley plan a tragic scheme to draw Othello and Blanche to their downfall because
Othello promotes Cassio to lieutenancy, a position that he wants and it causes him to plan a tragic
plan. Othello has suppossed affair to Emilia who is Lago's wife. Thus, Lago constructs a plan to
revenge. Stanley hates Branche because she destroys the good relationship between him and his
wife , Stella. He thinks that she has sold the Belle Reve which he thinks it's a part of partly him,
but she does not give him any money. The most important one, he 'assume' that Blanche describes
him as 'common' and bestial.
Thus, he plots a plan to revenge. In all, both Lago and Stanley start tragic plan their hatred.
Lago is absolutely inhuman while Stanley has little consciences in his heart. In order to achieve
the target, Iago does everythings that will benefits himself even killing other's. He kills Roderigo
who helps him a lot in his paln. He persuade Othello to kill his Desdemona. Furthermore he kills
his wife at the end. Stanley has not yet totally lost his humanity. Although he has raped Branche,
he does not kill her or other people. Moreover, at the end of the play he settles her into a asylum,
but he does not just forsakes her. This reveals that someone will look after her in the future, and
she will not be living alone. In
short, Stanley still has little emotions of love in her heart, but Lago is absolutely inhuman, these
two villains have a different level at different period.
As the villians in their plays, Iago and Stanley are both brilliant, but Iago's tragic plan is almost
perfect. He is able to use other Charater's 'flaw' in his well constructed plan. The smartest thing he
does is that able to hide his identify from others. He appears to be 'noble' to others, but in fact, he
is evil 'nderworth'. Thus, he can gain other characters's trust. For Stanley, his plan is not as well
constructed as Lago ' '. Actually, his plan is quite straight forward. He just find out the train and
tell it to Stella and Mitch. Stanley is an impetuous person, it can be showed by the action that be
'thorus' the radio out in the poker night(detail explain). This is his weakness. He make fault in his
plan by this, so he cannot as smart as Lago.


Lago and Stanley are both the master in their plays, they can control every other characters. Iago
can control Others because he is able to gain trust form other characters. He seems loyal in front
of everyone so he can easily control others. Stanley is the ' ' among his friends. He is the leader of
the bowling team and the 'plant'. Thus, he can control his friends. Also he can 'control' Stella and
Blanche because man is alwys the King. There is no doubt that Lagoo are Stanley are the master in
the play.
Lago and Stanley are both an evil person, they both start their tragic scheme by their hatred. Lago
is seemed to be much smarter than Stanley, but ironically, Iago cannot completely finish his trgic
plan while Stanley can. Furthermore, Iago ends up with death. Anyway, they both cannot use their
brilliant on the good side: otherwise the world will be more beautiful.
