Duke Orsino is one of the main characters involved in the love triangle and dynamics of Twelfth Night. At the beginning of the play‚ Duke Orsino is very obsessively in love with Olivia.

How does the dramatic device of the fool contribute to the comedy in Twelfth Night? Feste is Shakespeare’s comedic tool in Twelfth Night. He uses puns and a mix of prose and iambic pentameter to titillate the audience. However‚ in a different manner‚ Malvolio is also presented as a fool‚ but in the sense that he is at the end of the jests of others‚ which amuses us due to how Shakespeare has made the audience dislike him. Typically‚ in Shakespeare’s comedies such as As you like it‚ the fool is
