The Tragedy of Othello, the Moor of Venice is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in approximately 1603, and based on the Italian short story Un Capitano Moro (" A Moorish Captain ") by Cinthio, a disciple of Boccaccio, first published in 1565.

Desdemona is the only named character in Cinthio's tale, with his few other characters identified only as " the Moor " ( Othello ), " the squadron leader " ( Cassio ), " the ensign " ( Iago ), and " the ensign's wife " ( Emilia ).
