Cassio
Cassio may not represent a principal character but still, it’s a interesting character in “Othello”. For instance to me, Cassio was one of the main ingredients that Iago used to finish with Othellos life.
Cassio was named by Othello his lieutenant. This act started all the tragedy. He was a schooled soldier, with no experience. Iago, got mad an jealous of him because Othello chose him even dough he was inexperienced. He is a good looking guy, who has several conversations with Desdemona (Othellos wife). These conversations gave power to Iago’s allegations; he had told Othello that they were having an affair.
The reader can see trough the play how the luck of man changes especially Cassio’s. He went from being a Student to a Lieutenant. From being a friend, he got in a fight and lost his title. Iago made him speak about his relationship with his mistress Bianca. But Othello tough they were talking about Desdemona and her relationship with Cassio.
At last even dough they tried many times to make Cassio fail he was practically the only survivor and triumphant of all the characters. After many tries to get rid of him he gets into a fight with Roderigo were he gets hurt, an Iago comes and hurts him again trying to kill him. At the end Cassio was winner of all. He got out of there alive and got his honorary position in Venice.
