Folly Essay – Twelfth Night For my essay I have chosen to write about Malvolio. He is Princess Olivia head steward and confidant. In this play Malvolio proves to be an extremely complex character. As straight edged as he tries to be‚ Malvolio has definitely been stuck by several folly’s. Just as Feste stated in the play‚ “Folly is like the sun‚ it shines everywhere.” Folly operates in a way that the person it affects still believes they are acting with reason and logic. This theme is
