Explanation:
In Shakespeare’s play, Othello, Iago is one of the most complex and intriguing characters. Iago’s complex character is marked by his insatiable ambition, deceptive nature, and unparalleled ability to manipulate those around him. Throughout the play, Iago’s true motives are shrouded in mystery, and the question of why he hates Cassio, Othello’s faithful lieutenant, is a particularly perplexing one. The most important reason for hating Cassio is probably the fact that Cassio was promoted before him.
