Summary of Othello Play by William Shakespeare

Othello is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, written around 1603. The play follows Othello, a Moorish general in the Venetian army, who secretly marries Desdemona, a noblewoman. Though respected for his military prowess, Othello faces racial prejudice and jealousy from those around himโ€”especially Iago, his envious ensign. Iago feels wronged when Othello promotes Cassio over him and plots a twisted scheme to ruin Othello by making him believe Desdemona is unfaithful.

Using manipulation, lies, and a stolen handkerchief, Iago poisons Othelloโ€™s mind with jealousy, leading Othello to murder Desdemona in a fit of rage. When the truth of Iagoโ€™s deceit is finally revealed, Othello is overcome with guilt and takes his own life. The play is a powerful exploration of themes like jealousy, manipulation, racism, and the tragic consequences of misplaced trust. Iago, despite his evil nature, remains one of Shakespeareโ€™s most complex villains, while Othelloโ€™s downfall highlights the vulnerability of even the noblest individuals.
