About This Novel

"As You Like It" is one of Shakespeare's four comedies. It is called Shakespeare's "four comedies" together with "A Midsummer Night's Dream", "The Merchant of Venice" and "Twelfth Night". It tells the story of Rosalind, the daughter of an exiled Duke, who goes to the forest to find her father in the Ardennes Forest, far away from the world, and her love story. The period from 1590 to 1613 was the golden age of Shakespeare's creation. His early plays, mainly comedies and historical dramas, reached their peak of depth and artistry in the late 16th century. By 1608, he was mainly writing tragedies. Shakespeare advocated noble sentiments, and his tragedies often described sacrifice and revenge, including "Othello", "Hamlet", "King Lear" and "Macbeth", which are considered among the best examples in the English language. Towards the end of his life, he began to write tragicomedies, also known as romance plays.
