| | The New Venice: Historians and Historiography in the 21st Century Lagoon By Liz Horodowich, History Compass |
| | Venetian colonial policy was undeniably often aggressive and domineering; for instance, Maria Georgopoulou has argued that on Crete, Venetian architecture “made a strong hegemonic statement in favor of the rulers,” as Venetian walls, ports, forts, arsenals, palaces and churches visually asserted the authority of Venetians across their Mediterranean empire. | | | Venetian apothecaries and physicians played on the fact that the body had long been a metaphor used to describe political society and used this metaphor to shore up their professional standing. | | | While this story was recounted in countless Venetian chronicles and humanist histories – all uncritical of a lack of historical evidence – de Vivo demonstrates that toward the end of the sixteenth century, critics of Venice forced the Venetians to provide proof of this story's veracity. |

| | Indeed, his rudeness still enables him to win the day in the Venetian Senate against Brabantio in 1.3, and his romantic and adventurous narrative wins over the Duke's heart (1.3.171), but he would not long survive, one surmises, in the rough and tumble of Venetian politics. | | | This is a rough but alluring way of saying that Desdemona alone has won his heart and persuaded him to come in from his military life. | | | As a matter of fact, in each of his major speeches in Act I, there are twists of language that make one pause and realize that Othello is stretching the language in a way that his presence is probably attempting to stretch the consciousness of the Venetian people. |
