who is bianca and what role does she play in iago's scheme
Bianca (Othello) Bianca is a fictional character in William Shakespeare's Othello (c. 1601–1604). She is Cassio's jealous lover. Despite her brief appearance on stage, Bianca plays a significant role in the progress of Iago's scheme to incite Othello's jealousy of Cassio. Bianca is traditionally regarded as a courtesan, although this occupation is not specifically designated in the drama. The character was occasionally cut from performances in the 19th century on moral grounds.[1] Bianca is not to be confused with Bianca Minola in Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew.
