Lots of people try, but Emilia is the one who finally gets through to him, by explaining about the handkerchief her husband had asked her to steal. Her husband then stabs her to death and runs.

How do you xxplain the story of Othello?

Oversimplifying greatly ... Othello is a dark-skinned African Muslim (a "Moor") who is a high-ranking and hot-tempered general in the army of Venice, Italy. Cassio is Othello's trusted lieutenant. Desdemona is Othello's girlfriend, whom he marries early in the story. Iago (ee-ah-go) is a deviously sly soldier in Othello's army; he is jealous and bitter and wants to destroy Othello, because Othello has chosen Cassio to be his lieutenant instead of choosing Iago. Roderigo is another soldier who Iago easily manipulates to do his bidding. Everyone else in the story takes part in action that revolves around these 5 main characters. Iago tries to get Desdemona's father and the Duke of Venice to believe that Othello engaged in sorcery and kidnapping to get Desdemona to marry him, but that doesn't work. Fortunately for Iago, Othello doesn't realize that Iago is out to get him. Iago gets Cassio drunk, gets Roderigo to pick a fight with Cassio, and then convinces Othello that Cassio started the fight. Othello strips Cassio of his rank. Iago convinces Cassio that Othello's wife Desdemona can help convince Othello to give Cassio his rank back. Iago helps Cassio arrange a secret meeting with Desdemona. Then Iago convinces Othello that Cassio and Desdemona are having a love affair behind his back. Iago convinces Roderigo to kill Cassio, but Cassio is only wounded. Iago kills Roderigo so he can't tell anyone that Iago put him up to the murder attempt. In a fit of jealous rage, Othello smothers Desdemona who he believes has been having sex with Cassio. Cassio, Iago and others arrive at the scene of Desdemona's murder. Othello repents of his fit of temper that has caused him to kill his beloved wife. Desdemona's maid reveals that Iago made her set up false evidence that led Othello to his tragic incorrect conclusion. Iago kills the maid. Othello stabs Iago but only wounds him. Othello begs Cassio to forgive him for his unfounded jealousy, which he does. OMG, the dead Roderigo has left a letter fully incriminating the villainous Iago, who is led away to what we assume is torture and a gruesome death. Othello, crushed by having allowed Iago to lead him to ruin, gives a final speech and commits suicide with his dagger. Everyone comes back to life and bows to the audience, who are weeping and applauding.


Why did Iago feel bitter on Othello?

Iago felt bitter towards Othello for several reasons, primarily due to his belief that Othello had promoted Cassio over him to the position of lieutenant, which he felt he deserved. Additionally, Iago harbored suspicions that Othello had been involved with his wife, Emilia, leading to feelings of jealousy and betrayal. This bitterness fueled his desire for revenge, driving him to manipulate and deceive those around him throughout the play.
