As You Like It

William Shakespeare's As You Like It is widely considered to be one of the greatest comedies ever written. Reading the play is a wonderful approach to educating oneself about Shakespeare and the early 17th century. The play's exploration of love, identity, disguise, and the contrast between the court and rural life remains relevant and thought-provoking centuries after it was created. The characters in "As You Like It" are what makes studying the play so enjoyable. Whether it's Orlando's hopeless romantic outlook or Rosalind's sassy insight, every one of the characters in this story contributes something unique to the overall experience. Orlando, in hiding from his violent brother Oliver, runs into Rosalind, now known as Ganymede, in the woods, and the two fall in love. Through a series of witty exchanges and humorous misunderstandings, Rosalind encourages Orlando to overcome his shyness and profess his love for her, all the while teaching him valuable lessons about love, relationships, and his own nature.
