An aside is a remark directed at someone other than the one in conversation, in many cases this is the audience. It usually represents a thought or observation that would not be heard by the other characters.
In some situations, real and literary, the term sotto voce (lowered voice) serves the same purpose as an aside.
(The act of saying something "under one's breath" is even lower in volume, said so that no one else is supposed to hear.)
Same as it means now: to the side. Like in this quotation from Coriolanus: "Come, lay aside your stitchery; I must have you play the idle housewife with me this afternoon." Or this, from Love's Labour's Lost: "Walk aside the true folk, and let the traitors stay."
Of course, it had and still has a special meaning to actors. An aside is a line which is delivered, not to the other actors on the stage, but to the audience. Asides lost popularity and disappeared almost completely from scripts in the late 19th century because of what is called the "fourth wall convention", the convention that the actors behave as if they are unaware of the existence of the audience as if the stage was a box with a fourth wall between audience and actors which only the audience can see through. Some experimental kinds of theatre (and even some television and film scripts) in the later parts of the twentieth century have given rise to renewed interest in using asides from time to time.
