In his book, Shakespearean Tragedy, A.C. Bradley discusses at length the many
great works of William Shakespeare. One such work is that of Othello. The story
Othello is one of Shakespeare’s more intricate works. The basic plot is one a
man betrayed by those who are supposed to be close to him but turn out to truly
be vipers in wait to strike. Bradley suggests that Othello’s tragic flaw s are
the very things that make him a renowned fighter, leader, and man. Othello’s
character, by nature, is a very trusting and honest man. It is because of this
trustfulness that Iago is able to take advantage of him. He plays on Othello’s
passion and quick temper, using them as his weapon of revenge. Likewise,
Othello’s romanticism blinds him. His love for his wife keeps him occupied
while Iago sets his schemes into motion. Iago takes that love a contorts it,
making Othello become wild and vengeful. He loves completely and he trusts
completely and when the time comes he hates completely. The most dangerous part
of Othello’s character is his lack of hesitation. He thinks and then he acts,
leaving little time between the two. This brings down Othello in the end. He
acts too quickly and uses his emotions to guide him instead of logic and winds
up being his own undoing.

as far as othello is concerned, his hamartia may be refered as one of those types of fralities that would have been easily removed if the hero had seen through the conditions with an earnest look, in other words othello finds enough opportunities to mend his mistake of suspecting his wife by having a fair and clear talk but he remains dull and dumb to the level of extreme. this results in his perpetual envy towards her which ends in her tragic killing by him...moreover his overtrusting nature to iago also supprts his tragic transgression from good to bad, had he ever trusted anyone else except iago, he would have been saved from meeting his tragic doom.
