After reading Act 1 if TWN...

I can't stop thinking about all of the confusing love triangles. The duke loves Olivia and sends Viola (who is disguised as Cesario) to tell Olivia of the duke's love for her. Olivia ends up loving Cesario (Viola) when really Viola loves the duke. The character's love interests change so quickly they're hard to keep track of. I think the characters are confused and don't care who they love, as long as they are loved.

  1. The searching for the "hart" is a reoccurring theme throughout this play. This realization pretty much sums of my project. All the characters do want to feel loved and their suffering in order to obtain that love makes for the entertainment we demand out of the play.
