(1564 – 1616) Essay, Research Paper

One of Shakespeare’s most famous works,

As You Like It possesses many classic elements of comedy. The personal

divisions at the outset (two Duke-brothers at war, two other brothers filled

with hate for one another, daughters separated from their fathers) all

strike a discordant note central to the comedic form. Moreover, the device

of Rosalind being mistaken for a man creates humorous tension throughout.

As in most comedies, though, by the end of the play all wrongs are somehow

righted; brothers come together and every Jack has his Jill.
