Othello by William Shakespeare
"Othello" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written around 1603. Set in Venice and Cyprus, the play follows Moorish military commander Othello as his ensign Iago manipulates him into suspecting his wife Desdemona of infidelity. Through cunning deception and psychological warfare, Iago exploits Othello's trust and uses a handkerchief as false evidence of betrayal. This manipulation drives Othello toward a devastating resolution, exploring themes of jealousy, deception, and the destructive power of
suspicion in one of Shakespeare's most compelling tragedies. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
