Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shipwrecked off the coast of Illyria, Viola enters the service of Duke Orsino disguised as Cesario. But when her twin brother, Sebastian, thought lost at sea, also arrives in Illyria, confusion reigns. Young love, mistaken identity, and general merriment are the hallmarks of this play. So named for a period of the year during the Epiphany where everyday rules of life are turned upside down, Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night remains a delightful romp of Elizabethan revelry. Known as “The Bard of Avon,” William Shakespeare is arguably the greatest English-language writer known. Enormously popular during his life, Shakespeare’s works continue to resonate more than three centuries after his death, as has his influence on theatre and literature. Shakespeare’s innovative use of character, language, and experimentation with romance as tragedy served as a foundation for later playwrights and dramatists, and some of his most famous lines of dialogue have become part of everyday speech.
