This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelfth Night is the only one of Shakespeare’s plays to have a double title – the other title being What You Will. This play is a comedy with an intricate plot and dozens of jokes to keep an audience entertained. It was written circa 1601 and the setting is Illyria, a fictional country. Shakespeare’s inspiration for the story came from Riche his Farewell to Militarie Profession, written in 1581 by Englishman Barnabe Riche. The Duke of Illyria is one Orsino. Illyria appears to be a place where very little is happening and the inhabitants are somewhat bored. When the play begins, Orsino is courting Countess Olivia. Olivia, however, is in no mood for courting, as she has just lost her brother and is mourning her loss. Even so, her uncle Sir Toby Belch is matchmaking. He thinks she would make a suitable mate for the dubious buffoon Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Sir Andrew and Sir Toby spend much of their time drinking with a clown named Feste. This annotated edition includes a biography and critical essay.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named for the twelfth night after Christmas, the end of the Christmas season, Twelfth Night plays with love and power. The Countess Olivia, a woman with her own household, attracts Duke (or Count) Orsino. Two other would-be suitors are her pretentious steward, Malvolio, and Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Onto this scene arrive the twins Viola and Sebastian; caught in a shipwreck, each thinks the other has drowned. Viola disguises herself as a male page and enters Orsino's service. Orsino sends her as his envoy to Olivia--only to have Olivia fall in love with the messenger. The play complicates, then wonderfully untangles, these relationships.

Download or read book Twelfth Night - ISE - Ed. Carnegie & Houlahan written by William Shakespeare and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2014-06-06 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelfth Night has seldom been off the stage since Shakespeare’s day. It has been performed for its romantic high comedy and its boisterous low comedy; with an emphasis on farce or on autumnal melancholy; as straightforward celebration of heterosexual love and marriage or as exploration of the complexity of gender. David Carnegie and Mark Houlahan’s introduction to the play provides a lively discussion of the play’s performance history and encourages readers to think about stagecraft and the play as a performance text, while the historical appendices provide materials that illuminate different thematic elements of the play. Extended notes interleaved throughout the play present relevant illustrations and expand on mythological, historical, and religious references in the play. The accompanying online text will offer additional commentary on staging alternatives and more extensive visual materials. A collaboration between Broadview Press and the Internet Shakespeare Editions project at the University of Victoria, the editions developed for this series have been comprehensively annotated and draw on the authoritative texts newly edited for the ISE. This innovative series allows readers to access extensive and reliable online resources linked to the print edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The play opens at the Illyrian court, where the love-sick Duke Orsino enjoys some live tunes while fantasizing about the luscious Countess Olivia. Too bad Olivia can''t be bothered with the Duke or any other living man. Valentine reports that Olivia''s brother has recently died (shortly after her old passed away), so Olivia''s decided to lock herself up at home while she mourns for the next seven years. Olivia''s grief over her dead bro doesn''t bother Orsino one bit. In fact, he tells us that, if Olivia can love a dead sibling this much, just imagine what she''ll be like with a living, breathing man. Meanwhile, Viola and a crew of sailors wash up on the Illyrian shore after their ship sinks, separating Viola from her twin brother Sebastian, who may have drowned. Viola doesn''t quite know what to do next. So, she decides, what the heck? Why not dress up like a boy and get a job as one of Duke Orsino''s servants? The sea captain is happy to help her transform from Viola to "Cesario," a young "boy" with a great singing voice, luscious lips, and a can-do attitude. Over at Olivia''s pad (where everyone is supposed to be sad since the lady of the house is mourning her dead brother), Olivia''s free-loading uncle, Sir Toby Belch, and his drinking buddy, Sir Andrew Aguecheek, party like it''s 1599. Olivia''s trusty lady in waiting, Maria, gives Toby and Andrew a piece of her mind - they ought to be ashamed of themselves, carousing around at all hours before stumbling home drunk and noisy when Olivia is trying to focus on her love for her dead brother. Aguecheek reveals that he''s hoping to get lucky with Olivia, who is, after all, a smokin'' hot, single heiress. Even though it''s pretty clear that Olivia''s not into Aguecheek, her greedy uncle Toby convinces him to stick around and take another run at the Countess. If Aguecheek marries Olivia, Toby can mooch off his drinking buddy and party like a rock star for ever and ever without having to worry that Olivia will kick his sorry self to the curb. Before we know it, Viola (as "Cesario") has a job at the Duke''s court and has become Orsino''s favorite page. "Cesario" and the Duke have become quite cozy ever since the Duke decided to share all his intimate thoughts with "Cesario" - we''re talking secret diary kinds of things. "Cesario''s" first task as Orsino''s best boy is to march on over to Olivia''s house and convince the Countess that the Duke is a really swell guy - if Olivia knows what''s good for her, she''ll ditch the black mourning veil and get ready for some romance, Orsino-style. Viola (disguised as "Cesario") confesses to the audience that she is totally into Duke Orsino. Uh-oh. Now Viola has to convince some other girl, Olivia, that Orsino''s a great guy when she, Viola, wants the Duke all to herself. This is getting really juicy. Over at Olivia''s pad, Feste the "licensed Fool" (he''s literally licensed to say whatever he wants) entertains Olivia and Maria with his witty word play and clever insults. Malvolio, Olivia''s snobby Steward (head servant), bags on Feste and tries to convince Olivia to get rid of him. Olivia tells Malvolio to zip it - he''s the fool if he can''t appreciate the brilliance of Feste''s clowning. When "Cesario" is granted access to Olivia''s pad and tries to deliver the Duke''s gooey love message, Olivia doesn''t cooperate - the Duke''s an OK guy and all, but Olivia''s just not into him. Plus, she''s super busy wearing her black veil and thinking about her brother. "Cesario," however, keeps talking and, before we know it, Olivia is all interested in Duke Orsino''s "boy" servant. When "Cesario" leaves, Olivia admits she''s totally crushing on "him." (Olivia has no idea "Cesario" is a girl wearing a disguise.) So, Olivia fibs to Malvolio and says that "Cesario" left behind a ring - Malvolio should return the ring and invite the luscious boy back to Olivia''s pad so they can continue their discussion about how she will never love Duke Orsino. Meanwhile...
