What is the importance of identity in Twelfth Night?
Twelfth Night is certainly a play where mistaken identities are crucial to the plot. Viola's alternate identity as Cesario attracts Olivia, yet her real identity is attracted to Orsino. Further confusion between Cesario and Sebastian, as when Feste, Olivia, and Aguecheek mistake Sebastian for Cesario and when Antonio and Olivia (after marrying Sebastian) mistake Cesario for Sebastian pushes the plot to its conclusion through the last two acts.

Are Unrequited love and mistaken identity key features in the comedy Twelfth Night?
Yes, both unrequited love and mistaken identity are key plot elements in Twelfth Night. Orsino is introduced as someone pining for the love of Olivia, which he cannot win. Viola is also in love with Orsino which she cannot disclose without revealing that she is a woman. Olivia is in love with Viola, believing her to be a man, a love which cannot be requited. The near-identical twins Viola and Sebastian give rise to a number of mistakes as to identity. Antonio, thinking she is Sebastian, asks Viola for a return of his money. Sir Andrew and Sir Toby, thinking that they are dealing with Viola, attack Sebastian and get beaten up. Finally, Olivia marries Sebastian thinking he is Viola.

How many plots do Shakespeare plays usually have?
The tragedies generally have one main plot, although there are diversions from it. Some of the comedies have two plots such as Much Ado About Nothing (the Beatrice/Benedick plot and the Claudio/Hero plot) and Merchant of Venice (the Bassanio/Portia plot and the Shylock/Antonio plot). A Midsummer Night's Dream has three plots. The plot structure of some of the history plays, particularly the Henry VI trilogy, is diffuse and difficult to unravel. The more popular history plays Richard III and Henry V have a more definable main plot. The plot of Pericles is rambling and episodic, but does not have strong subplots. On the other hand, the late play Cymbeline contains Shakespeare's most complex and tightly-written plot.

What is The Merchant of Venice by Shakespeare?
The Merchant of Venice is a play by William Shakespeare, one of his best-known early plays. It involves a double plot: the first involves a young man called Bassanio who wants to marry the wealthy heiress Portia. The successful suitor must first pass a test which is to guess which of three chests Portia's picture is hidden in. He guesses right and they are married. The second plot arises because Bassanio is too poor to go courting Portia. He calls upon his friend Antonio, the Merchant of Venice in the title, who is in a little cash flow bind, but who agrees to borrow the money for Bassanio. He borrows the money from Shylock, a Jewish moneylender. Now, Shylock and Antonio dislike each other intensely and Antonio has behaved very rudely to Shylock in the past. Nevertheless, Shylock agrees to lend the money, and without interest, provided that Antonio will agree that if the loan is not repaid on time, Shylock may cut a pound of flesh from Antonio's body. Antonio expects to be able to pay, so he agrees, but he is wrong and is taken to court by Shylock, who expects to get the pound of flesh he bargained for, and kill his enemy Antonio in the process. Unfortunately Portia dresses up as a lawyer and finds a loophole which saves Antonio and destroys Shylock.
