Infidelity In Literature?

For my writing class in college I have to research infidelity in literature and write about how the author dealt with it. I also have to show how history played a part in how the characters dealt with the infidelity. I can use any play, short story or novel... Any ideas as to what work I could use?Infidelity In Literature?
'The Scarlet Letter,' 'Madame Bovary,' and 'Les Liaisons Dangereuses' are a couple of obvious classical picks. 17th century Boston, 1820s-1840s France, and Ancien R茅gime (just before the Revolution) France, respectively--and all are really influenced by their settings.Infidelity In Literature?
The Bridges of Madison County


Othello


...there are many others listed already.





http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bridges鈥?/a> There is a short summary, stuff about the movie, and be sure you look at discussion openings under 'External Links' here, two links to follow.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Othello Another summary, and more External Links... the second looks best, as you can search this play there.


Luck to you.
