Desdemona’s unquestioning commitment to the idea of marriage also causes her to continue her subservient devotion to Othello, even after he openly accuses her of adultery. Having been called a whore in the presence of her attendant, Emilia, Desdemona professes the permanence of her love in the face of Othello’s unfounded anger, acknowledging, “his unkindness may defeat my life, But never taint my love” (4.3.315-319). Her unquestioning love is her primary motivation for obediently accepting her husband’s abuse. His own motivations are irrelevant to her and beyond her concern. According to noted critic Herm Von Freisan, “to the very last moment of this fearful scene, the threads are not severed by which Desdemona and Othello might be saved” (132). Von Freisan is referring to Desdemona’s love and willingness to forgive, which is evident even as she lay dying, strangled by her husband’s hands. When asked who has killed her, she tells Emilia, “No one; I myself” (5.2)
