Othello the Dynamic

I think that Othello portrays a the role of the dynamic character. At the beginning of the play he is madly in love with Desdemona and then at the end he kills her. This is all caused by the cunning of Iago. Othello's personality changes into this sort of jealous madman almost. Everytime Cassio's name is even mentioned Othello practically has one of his seizures. Also, at the beginning of Iago's plot Othello denies with pure faith that Desdemona isn't cheating on him. But, at the end, Othello pleads to Emilia to believe him that Desdemona is cheating on him. These reasons are why I think his perseonality and reasons for doing things have changed and that proves he is a dynamic character.
