| Summary | "Othello" by William Shakespeare is a tragic play written during the early 17th century. The work delves into themes of jealousy, love, betrayal, and racism, centering on the complex relationship between Othello, a Moorish general in the Venetian army, and Desdemona, his beautiful wife. Their love story is set against the backdrop of a military conflict and societal prejudice, introducing a range of characters whose motivations intertwine to unravel a powerful tale of deception and tragedy. The opening of "Othello" introduces us to the conflict between Iago and Othello, framed through the eyes of Iago, who feels wronged when he is passed over for a promotion in favor of Cassio. As the play begins, Iago and Rodrigo conspire to disturb Othello’s life by stirring up trouble regarding his marriage. They incite Brabantio, Desdemona's father, claiming that his daughter has eloped with Othello. Brabantio reacts with outrage and disbelief, intending to confront Othello. The scene sets up a narrative charged with tension and reveals Iago's manipulative nature and contempt for Othello, hinting at the destructive path that the story will take as it unfolds.
