Does brabantio accept Desdemona's marriage to Othello later?
No, we never hear about him again after the court rules in Othello's favour.
Who reveals the bitter truth to Othello that Desdemona was never unfaithful?
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.
What is a summary of Othello?
Othello is a General that lives in Italy(Venice), but is a Moor. Traditionally that means he is black while everyone else is white. He is very respected and marries on of the leading families daughters. Iago is one of his most trusted lieutenants, but after great victories Othello decides to promote someone else. Iago then begins a scheme to get power. First he brings down his other rivals for power. Then he seeks revenge on Othello. To do so he starts scandals almost on a whim and makes everyone distrust one another. Including Othello and his wife. Side note: Othello has epilepsy and no one must know or they will think him weak or possesed. Iago forces Othello to smother his wife and all of his rivals to die, yet in the end He loses his own life in his web of lies. One of the most Ironic things about Othello is Iago the most wicked liar coins the term (I wear my heart upon my sleeve.) Meaning he does not decieve. Iago makes the top ten most evil fictional villains ever.
Which character recruits lago to woo Desdemona for himself?
Roderigo pays Iago large sums of money to help Roderigo's attempt to woo Desdemona. Iago just pockets the money because not only is Desdemona totally committed to Othello, but could never be interested in a twit like Roderigo.
Why does Iago stab Roderigo in Shakespeare's Othello?
Iago has been systematically conning Roderigo out of his money, saying that he is using it to try to get Desdemona to dump Othello and go for Roderigo instead. Iago knows that Desdemona will never do this, and has been simply pocketing the money. Roderigo is starting to catch on, so Iago feeds him the same line about Cassio and Desdemona having an affair and sets Roderigo on to murder Cassio. His objective is to get rid of both of them. Roderigo does stab Cassio, who Iago takes for dead, so Iago kills Roderigo himself.
