Othello has been described as Shakespeare's most perfect play. Critics of dramatic structure have praised it for its attention to the main theme without irrelevant distractions. It is believed to been written around 1603. The work revolves around four central characters: Othello, his wife Desdemona, his lieutenant Cassio and his trusted advisor Iago. Attesting to its enduring popularity, the play appeared in 7 editions between 1622 and 1705. Because of its varied themes "racism, love, jealousy and betrayal" it remains relevant to the present day.
