"Othello" is one of Shakespeare's finest dramas and one of
the greatest tragedies ever written. It is the story of its
title character, Othello, a Moor general who draws the ire
of Iago, his ensign, when he passes him over for a
promotion. Othello also makes an enemy of Roderigo, a
wealthy gentleman, when he marries his love interest,
Desdemona. Iago conspires against Othello by making him
believe that his wife has been unfaithful. This deception
results in tragedy for all of those involved. "Othello", a
tragedy of epic proportions, is one of Shakespeare's best.
