Paper Summary:

This paper examines the conflict, contrast, and contradiction in "As You Like It", as well as its host of colorful characters. The main theme of disguise is discussed in detail, and a summary of the play's plot with examples illustrating the main is provided.

From the Paper:

"The central theme of disguise makes its way into this early scene in the play, too. Orlando, Oliver's younger brother and surprise victor in the wrestling match, fights under a false identity. The wrestling scene therefore contains elements of disguise and of excitement, which both continue throughout the play. Moreover, the figure of Touchstone the Jester adds the necessary color and confusion that also characterizes As You Like It."
