"Othello," a tragedy by William Shakespeare, features several key characters: Othello, a Moorish general in the Venetian army; Desdemona, his devoted wife; Iago, Othello's treacherous ensign who manipulates others for his own gain; and Cassio, Othello's loyal lieutenant. Other important characters include Emilia, Iago's wife and Desdemona's maid, and Roderigo, a wealthy suitor of Desdemona who is manipulated by Iago. The interplay between these characters drives the themes of jealousy, betrayal, and the complexities of love.
