Othello, the Moor of Venice is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in approximately 1603, and based on the Italian short story "Un Capitano Moro" ("A Moorish Captain") by Cinthio, a disciple of Boccaccio, first published in 1565. The work revolves around four central characters: Othello, a Moorish general in the Venetian army; his wife Desdemona; his lieutenant, Cassio; and his trusted ensign Iago. Because of its varied themes — racism, love, jealousy, and betrayal — Othello is widely felt to remain relevant to the present day and is often performed in professional and community theatres alike. The play has also been the basis for numerous operatic, film, and literary adaptations. From Wikipedia under the

Q. Hi! For an English Literature essay I've been asked to assess the role of women in Shakespeare's Othello. I have the main foundations set out and some pretty good ideas that just need fleshing out. Does anyone who may have studied the play have any pointers; any tips that could improve my essay? I'm looking for concise notes based around characters (Desdemona/Emilia etc.) and maybe some historical context that might add weight to my analysis. Thanks!
