Pretty darn low. Of course that was what he intended, since the idea was to be as coarse and racist as possible to play on Brabantio's latent racism and get him angry about Othello and Desdemona's elopement. At the same time he played up the idea of a father having ownership in his daughter. And the coarseness of referring directly to the sexual act is further accentuated by suggestions that it is bestial.
So "an old black ram is tupping your white ewe!" works for Iago on many levels. The use of the word "your" emphasizes that Desdemona is her father's property. The use of "black" and "white" raises the racial issue. "Tupping" is a coarse epithet for intercourse. The word "old" reminds Brabantio that Othello is much older than Desdemona. The use of the sheep imagery suggests the bestiality of sex. That's a lot to pack into nine words.
"You'll have your daughter covered with a Barbary horse" works the same way. "Barbary" is a reference to North Africa but also carries the connotation of "barbarians". "Your daughter"--again with the possessive. "Covered" is a graphic sexual image. The reference to horse again suggests bestiality.
The same way I would describe any other Othello. Othello is still Othello no matter what clothes you put him in.
No, almost certainly not. Desdemona was a loving and true wife and would not have given Othello any reason to kill her. And Othello was basically a fair-minded man as the play shows before Iago began to spin his web of deceit. Not only that, but Othello truly loved Desdemona and under normal circumstances would not hurt her. Everyone is shocked when he strikes her in public not only because it is shocking behaviour but also because it is uncharacteristic. Without Iago it is as likely that Othello would kill Desdemona as it is that she would kill him.
how much is the The Tudor Shakespeare Othello 1925 edition worth
I would say grade levels 4th-6th grade
Iago leaves Roderigo at Brabantio house because he was to appear a faithful friend to Othello, and it would not be good of him to be seen informing of his actions
The same way I would describe any other Othello. Othello is still Othello no matter what clothes you put him in.

There is no novel of Othello, actually. The famous Othello is a play by Shakespeare. Plays are not novels. If Othello was white, Othello wouldn't have been insecure, his relationship with Desdemona wouldn't be disapproved of and Iago might have hated Othello less. That is, of course assuming that Othello is white and so is everybody else. If Othello were white and everyone else was black, the story would be much the same because Othello's insecurity stems from his feeling of otherness, his feeling that he was different from everyone else. Othello has in fact been staged in this way, with a black cast and a white Othello. It has also been staged with actors playing Othello who are not black but are different from the rest in some other way.

Othello's hamartia would either be his misplaced trust upon Iago or his magnified sense of jealousy.
It is much more likely that Othello's and Desdemona's marriage would be accepted, today.
roderigo is jealous of othello because desdemona has chosen othello asher suiter despite the overwhelming offers roderigo has made and the racial difference in othello, which at that time would be considered taboo. so desdemona would rather go against society with othello than be with roderigo.
Othello could have avoided all the pain Iago's lies caused him by simply believeing in the love Desdemona had for him. If Othello were to have been less insecure and jealous than Iago would not have been able to trick him.
Probably would be Othello in Shakespeare's play, "Othello", written around 1603~

This would be William Shakespeare. If you don't know he wrote Othello. it's time you learned more about him.
Iago is obviously the villain, but if Othello had not been susceptible to Iago's lies because of jealousy, they would have had no effect.
