We know Roderigo to be the "sick fool" and dupe whom Iago bosses around, so most of us probably won't consider him to be worthy of much attention. But given that there's no equivalent character for Roderigo in the play's source text, Shakespeare must have created him for a reason - and an important one at that.
In this video, I analyse just what makes Roderigo an insightful point of reference for us to understand both his relationship with Iago, but also his function as a conduit for us to deepen our understanding of Othello.
