Furthermore, Cassio, the man promoted over Iago, has some drinking problems. Othello, the respected and triumphant outsider, is insecure and struggles to communicate with his partner, Desdemona. Using his manipulative skills and careful planning, Iago takes advantage of certain characters’ personal flaws.
Thus, Iago feels wronged and plots for Othello’s downfall. Othello has a lot of trust in Iago, but at the beginning of the play, he gives Cassio the rank of lieutenant over the qualified Iago. William Shakespeare, a prominent playwright and poet, creates a story revolving around Othello, a Moorish military commander from Venice, and Iago, a soldier craving the rank of lieutenant.
