Response paragraph for Twelfth Night

Due: Friday, February 18, one-page single-spaced. For this response paragraph, I am going to try something less structured. Just write up, developed in a page single-spaced, your deepest thought or insight about this play-the play as a whole itself, or a character or situation. What was most interesting or important to you? Why? Or-what was most delightful or bothersome to you? Or-what deep question did it raise, and why might that question be of particular significance to you? If you are stuck for an idea, here's a fallback: how does the presence of the downstairs plot affect the meaning/ pleasure/ interest in the upstairs plot? How would the play be different without the downstairs plot? For a Pass+, develop an original insight not discussed in class.
