Wooing a countess on his behalf, she is stunned to find herself the object of his beloved's affections. With the arrival of Viola's brother, and a trick played upon the countess's steward, confusion reigns in this romantic comedy of mistaken identity.威廉·莎士比亚（William Shakespeare，1564－1616），英国文学史上杰出的戏剧家和诗人，欧洲文艺复兴时期重要的作家。他流传下来的作品包括38部戏剧、155首十四行诗、两首长叙事诗和其他诗歌。由于莎士比亚在戏剧方面的巨大成就，被喻为“人类文学奥林匹克山上的宙斯”，影响了包括狄更斯、歌德、巴尔扎克等一代又一代的文学家，并同古希腊三大悲剧家埃斯库罗斯（Aeschylus）、索福克勒斯（Sophocles）及欧里庇得斯（Euripides）合称戏剧史上的四大悲剧家。

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was a poet, playwright, and actor who is widely regarded as one of the most influential writers in the history of the English language. Often referred to as the Bard of Avon, Shakespeare’s vast body of work includes comedic, tragic, and historical plays; poems; and 154 sonnets. His dramatic works have been translated into every major language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.
