Othello or the alternative full title as it is called The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice, is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare, approximately in 1603. The story is chiefly centred around two characters, Othello and Iago. In real-life, tragic heroes are the rarest of the breed. Othello is William Shakespeare’s one of the most artfully crafted and most prominent tragic heroes of all time. Othello is a tragic hero on account of his noble traits, his tragic flaws and his catastrophic downfall. A Moorish military commander, Othello has been portrayed as one who serves as a general to the Venetian army and engaged in the defence of Cyprus against the Ottoman Turk invasion. Roderigo, a wealthy and dissolute gentleman, is distraught learning about the secret marriage of Othello with Desdemona, since he had asked for Desdemona’s hands in marriage from her father, Brabantio. Desdemona is a beautiful and wealthy Venetian lady who is much younger than Othello and falls in love with Othello, secretly marrying him against the wishes of his father. Roderigo informs Iago about the elopement and marriage. Iago in turn is already furious at Othello when he was overlooked for promotion and is already plotting to take revenge against his General, Othello, the Moor of Venice. Thus, Iago and Roderigo conspire to turn the situation to their own advantage and bring down Othello, their common enemy. Iago instigates Brabantio informing about Othello’s elopement with Desdemona compelling Brabantio to confront Othello in a fit of rage. While Iago goes to Othello to inform him that Brabantio is coming after him. The conspiracy begins. On one hand, we find Iago manipulating Othello to believe his wife Desdemona is unfaithful and prone to betrayal, thereby stirring Othello's jealousy.
