Believed to have been written in 1603, Shakespeare's Othello is a tragedy that puts the playwright's prodigious creative gifts on full display. Based loosely on a Renaissance-era Italian tale, Othello follows the stormy relationship of the Moorish general Othello and his lovely wife Desdemona. Addressing timeless themes of love and betrayal, as well as surprisingly contemporary concepts such as race-based stereotypes, Othello is a satisfying read for modern-day fans of the Bard.
A obra gira em torno de um general de Veneza, Otelo, e sua paixão por Desdêmona. O romance é cercado por intrigas, onde um de seus amigos Iago, arquiteta uma suposta traição de Desdêmona com Cássio, também amigo de Otelo deixando-o bastante enciumado com a situação, totalmente descontrolado, Otelo vai a procura de sua esposa acreditando que ela o havia traído e a asfixia em seu quarto.

Never tell me; I take it much unkindly That thou, Iago, who hast had my purse As if the strings were thine, shouldst know of this.

Trifles light as air Are to the jealous confirmations strong As proofs of holy writ;
O, beware, my lord, of jealousy! It is the green-eyed monster, which doth mock The meat it feeds on. That cuckold lives in bliss Who, certain of his fate, loves not his wronger; But O, what damned minutes tells he o'er Who dotes, yet doubts, suspects, yet strongly loves!
Not poppy, nor mandragora, Nor all the drowsy syrups of the world, Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep Which thou owedst yesterday.
Reputation is an idle and most false imposition; oft got without merit and lost without deserving.
Good name in man and woman, dear my lord, Is the immediate jewel of their souls. Who steals my purse steals trash; 'tis something, nothing; 'Twas mine, 'tis his, and has been slave to thousands; But he that filches from me my good name Robs me of that which not enriches him And makes me poor indeed.
