Detailed commentary and analysis by Claire's Notes of Act IV, scene i, 145ff of Othello by William Shakespeare
Bianca is having a hard time believing Cassio’s story of having found the handkerchief in his bedroom. She comes upon Cassio in the street with Iago and makes a scene, accusing him of giving her another woman’s love token. Othello has seen enough and comes out of hiding as soon as Cassio has left. He has murder on his mind and Iago persuades him that strangling Desdemona in their bed will be an appropriate punishment. Their plotting is interrupted by the arrival of Lodovico, accompanied by Desdemona, with some important news from Venice. Will Othello be able to keep his cool in front of this important guest…?
