How was Shakespeare received as a playwright by audiences
in the Jacobean Age?

Shakespeare, the most gentle and sensitive of Elizabethan playwrights, with his moving human dramas, his comedies, and his ever-ready memorable quotes, but always with the lurking threat of violence, threw himself into the spirit of the Jacobean theatre, applying his talent for characterization and plot to the new tastes. Iago, for example, the villain of Othello, a psychopath who limits his own violent acts but manipulates those around him to commit extreme violence, culminating in Othello strangling Desdemona, is the arch Jacobean protagonist – ambitious, intelligent, clever and manipulative. And, of course, Iago survives as one of the most notorious villains of both the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods – and of the whole of dramatic literature too.
