  The four comedies collected in this text were written between 1595 and 1602, and demonstrate the evolution of Shakespearean comic form. The collective triumph of these plays lies in their mingling of humorous stage business and word-play with a more serious consideration of issues of identity, gender, dreaming, the meaning of love and even theatre itself.
