Sassan Caspiani February 27th 2012 Per. 1 1. Sebastian- (Act 2. Scene 2.

Line 20)- Sebastian is still oblivious to the fact that his sister has drowned at sea. Viola still does not know that Sebastian is still alive. This creates dramatic irony because we know both characters are alive, but the characters themselves do not.

2. Viola- (Act 2. Scene 2. Line 20)- The comedic aspect of this portion of this play is due to the disguise of Viola. Viola realizes that Olivia is attracted to her, but Viola is currently disguised as a highly feminine man. Viola reflects, then events have indeed taken an ironic turn, because Olivia has unknowingly fallen in love with another woman. Poor lady, she were better love a dream, Viola says to herself. Apparently loved by Olivia and in love with Orsino, who loves Olivia, Viola expresses her hope that time will untangle these problems since she certainly cannot figure out how to solve them. 3. Sir Toby Belch- (Act 2, Scene 3, Line 104)- Sir Toby Belch and the fool are engaging in a conversation that visual goes back and forth in a witty manner. They call Malvolio a servant due to his seriousness. 4. a) Orsino b) Viola a) Orsino b) Viola a) Orsino- (Act 2. Scene 4. Line 19)Orsino tells Cesario that he can tell by looking at him that Cesario is in love. Since Viola is really in love with Orsino, Cesario admits that Orsino is right. When Orsino asks what the woman he loves is like, Cesario answers that she is very much like Orsinosimilar to him in age and features. Orsino, not picking up on his pages meaning, remarks that Cesario would be better off loving a younger woman, because men are naturally fickle, and only a younger woman can keep them romantically satisfied for a long time. 5. a) Orsino. b) Viola (Act 2. Scene 4. Line 102)- Viola talks about herself in the third person. She acts as a master of women in front of Orsino. In reality, she is actually just confessing her love to him because she actually is a women and not a feminine man. 6. Viola (Act 2 Scene 4 Line 114)-Orsino says no woman can love with the same kind of passion as a man. Cesario disagrees and tells the story of a woman he

knew who died for the love of a man: the woman never told the man about her love but, instead, simply wasted away. Cesario refers to this girl as her fathers daughterleading Orsino, -naturally, to think that it must be Cesarios sister. He asks if the girl died of her love, and Viola answers ambiguously.

7. Maria (Act 2. Scene 5. Line 182)- They told Orsino to show up in yellow stockings but Olivia actually hates yellow stockings and that style of dress in general. They told Orsino that she likes those stockings.
