Sidney Lee

    Sir Sidney Lee war ein bedeutender englischer Biograf und Kritiker, dessen Werk sich hauptsächlich auf elisabethanische Autoren und Staatsmänner konzentrierte. Er wurde zu einer Schlüsselfigur durch seine umfangreichen Beiträge zum Dictionary of National Biography und insbesondere durch seine eingehende Biografie von William Shakespeare. Lees kritische Analyse und seine editorische Arbeit, einschließlich seiner Auseinandersetzung mit Shakespeares First Folio, legten eine grundlegende Basis für die spätere Literaturwissenschaft.

    • Set in a topsy-turvy world like a holiday revel, this comedy devises a romantic plot around separated twins, misplaced passions, and mistaken identity. Juxtaposed to it is the satirical story of a self-deluded steward who dreams of becoming “Count Malvolio” only to receive his comeuppance at the hands of the merrymakers he wishes to suppress. The two plots combine to create a farce touched with melancholy, mixed throughout with seductively beautiful explorations on the themes of love and time, and the play ends, not with laughter, but with a clown’s sad song.'
