Summary of Otello Verdi

The action takes place on the island of Cyprus.During a storm, the Moorish general Otello returns home victorious to his young wife Desdemona. But once he is home he becomes ensnared in a diabolical plot laid by ensign Iago, the very incarnation of evil, who is ready to do anything to destroy his master. Slowly, Iago takes advantage of his close relationship with Otello to sow the seeds of jealousy and persuade him that Desdemona is having and affair with Cassio. Iago provides false evidence of Desdemona’s guilt, stoking the Moor’s rage. Otello is devoured by jealousy, caught in the web of Iago’s lies. AlthoughDesdemona insists she has been unjustly accused, Otello publicly repudiates her and throws her to the ground. Later he strangles her in her bed and then stabs himself to death when he discovers the terrible truth.

Act 3
Desdemona spontaneously comes to speak in Cassio’s favour, not realising that by doing so she is only fuelling her husband's suspicions. He curses her and calls her a courtesan. His jealousy turns into irrepressible rage. In front of the crowd that has turned out to welcome ambassador Lodovico, he learns that he has been called back to Venice and Cassio will succeed him as governor of Cyprus. Mad with jealousy, he can no longer control himself and unleashes his anger in public, insulting and throwing his wife Desdemona to the ground, before passing out.
