Othello by Wiliam Shakespeare

Othello by  William Shakespeare

Along with Hamlet, King Lear and Macbeth are one of Shakespeare's four great tragedies. Othello is unique and often described as "Tragedy of Characters". Shakespeare's tragic tale opens in Venice where the villainous Iago plots against Othello the Moor. Iago poisoned Othello's ears that Cassio has an illegitimate relationship with Desdemona.

                                       Desdemona is completely innocent and extremely faithful to Othello Iago gives handkerchief that Desdemona dropped to Cassio then suggests that it was as soon as it was given to Cassio as a symbol of love. Mad with jealousy, Othello kills Desdemona his sad drive him to suicide Iago arrested but never reveals his true motive for manipulating Othello.Iago's dazzling display of villainy The relationship between these characters is another unusual feature of Othello. Othello and Iago bears the greater responsibility for the tragedy.More than anything else what's different from Othello from it's great tragedies peers is the role of it's villain, Iago is a character who essentially writes play's main plot. and takes a key part in it. Written in 1604, Othello is one of Shakespeare's tightly constructed tragedies.The fall of the proud, dignified man, the murder of loving and graceful woman and the unreasoning hatred of an "motiveless" villain all have evoked fear and pity in audiences throughout the centuries. If we compare Othello with hamlet then we have come across the truth Because Othello kills his wife without thinking and even if he knows that Claudius is a murderer.
