Publisher's Synopsis
Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night', with its rebellious gender jokes, cross-dressing, practical jokes, daft costumes, moonstruck lovers and comic revenge would have been amusing for audiences. Today we study the play to understand the language and appreciate the play's entertaining nature and we enjoy the farcical mixing-up of men and women and the funny characters such as Malvolio. This edition includes the complete text with explanatory notes on the language, themes and also explores typical exam themes and questions.
