Professor Bradley Greenburg of Northeastern Illinois University provides an in-depth summary and analysis of Act 5, Scene 1 of William Shakespeare's play Othello.
Othello, written in 1603-4, centers on a mysterious conflict between the Moorish protagonist by the same name as the play and his malevolent ensign Iago. Othello of Venice, Italy is a passionate soldier and lover who woos the noble and good-hearted Desdemona.
Sadly, Othello remains oblivious to the plots of mastermind Iago, who is puppeteering schemes involving all the plays other characters. "Honest Iago" manipulates his friends and confidants at every turn, staying one step ahead of them and turning them against one another. By the end of the play, Iago has trapped and killed almost all the characters in his web of lies.
Did you know? The character Othello wasn't played by a black actor for more than two centuries after the play was written.
And consider these common phrases first invented by Shakespeare in Othello: "forgone conclusion," "jealousy is the green-eyed monster," and "wear my heart upon my sleeve."

I don't understand how nobody has seen Iago killing Roderigo?
Don't worry bout ittttt
it was dark outside
🤷 Shakespeare didn't want others to see it so nobody saw that coming ....
Iago is such a machiavelic character his power of lying to people shows us how special he is.
But to be fair i dont really understand the end why does he kill Roderigo who was his pigeon and very important card ?!!!!
The fact that Iago did all this just because Othello chose Cassio over him as a lieutenant makes me so mad, how can humans be so cruel
Cassio is wounded on leg by the way , not in back.
Cassio is wounded in the leg, not the back.
