No, Bianca does not die in Shakespeare’s play Othello. While her fate is not explicitly detailed in the ending, she is alive by the conclusion of the play.
Throughout the story, Bianca is portrayed as a courtesan who has a complicated relationship with Cassio. In the final act of the play, she appears briefly, confronting Cassio about the handkerchief that Othello had given to Desdemona, which is now in Bianca’s possession. This moment highlights her role in the broader themes of jealousy and betrayal that permeate the play.
After the tragic events leading to Othello’s and Desdemona’s deaths, Bianca’s absence from the final resolutions suggests that she continues to live, but the play does not provide closure on her character. Her story, like many others in the play, serves to illustrate the complex web of relationships and emotions that drive the plot, without specifically detailing her demise.
