| Summary | "Twelfth Night; Or, What You Will" by William Shakespeare is a comedic play composed during the early 17th century. The narrative revolves around themes of love, mistaken identities, and the complexities of human emotion, featuring a rich cast of characters that include Duke Orsino, who is love-struck by Countess Olivia, and Viola, who is disguised as a man named Cesario. At the start of the play, we find Duke Orsino in his palace, lamenting his unrequited love for Olivia, who mourns for her brother's death and refuses to entertain any suitors. Meanwhile, Viola arrives in Illyria after a shipwreck, believing her twin brother Sebastian to be drowned. Disguised as a man, she seeks to serve the Duke, ultimately becoming a messenger in his courtship of Olivia. The mix of romantic pursuits and misunderstandings creates a comedic scenario, driving the plot of mistaken identities and the ensuing love triangle, setting the stage for the delightful confusion that is characteristic of Shakespearean comedy.
