Othello, who married Desdemona, is Moor and fighting for Venice. His ensign, Iago hate the Moor. And tragedy start...
I can know about estrangement between white and black skin people a little. I want to know why Shakespeare describe Othello as a Moor. And I am interesting to the background of the story. ( )

I think Othello is very poor. He was deceived by Iago and you killed Desdemona whom he loved dearly. To make matters worse, he committed suicide. But all of these things told me how he loved her. People say that jealousy is just the obverse side of love. His story is just what describes this. ( )

As you know, this story was written by William Shakespeare. This is very famou and popular,but I do not like this.
I had known this title, but not read. So, I tried.

This story was very sad. But I like stories that have happy ending.

So, readers who like unhappy ending like this story very much.
