Answer 2

Explanation:

In Twelfth Night, the character Olivia, is a melodramatic, stubborn, deceitful, and wealthy women. Olivia serves as a counterpart to Duke Orsino, both of whom like to wallow in their own misery, stubborn and want the unattainable. Olivia is an extraordinarily deceitful women, who bamboozles anyone from Duke Orsino to Sir Andrew Augcheek. This is seen in Twelfth Nights when Olivia wears a veil, and pretends to mourn for her dead brother, “Give me my veil. Come, throw it o’er my face. We’ll once more hear Orsino’s embassy. (Shakespeare 44)”. She says she will mourn for dead brother for seven years, and only after that can she even contemplate the idea of marriage. She uses this ruse to try and get Sir Andrew Augcheek and Duke Orsino to lose interest in her because she does not reciprocate any of their feelings. Olivia is also an extremely stubborn lady, just like Duke Orsino. As Orsino never gives up on Olivia, Olivia doesn’t give up on Cesario/Viola. This determination is seen in Twelfth Night, when she persists that Cesario must come back because he will eventually fall in love with her, “Yet come again, for thou perhaps mayst move That heart, which abhors, to like his love.” (Shakespeare 132). Although Olivia knows that Cesario is not fond of her, Olivia continues to tell herself that in due time he will. Finally Olivia is also very dramatic, she over exaggerates constantly. She blames her foolishness on Cesario saying that his very presence made her act this way and that this very foolishness could ruin her name and prestige forever, “I’ve said too much to someone with a hear of stone. I’ve foolishly jeopardized my honor and reputation. I hate myself for behaving that way, but I just had to, and no criticism could have stopped me.” (Shakespeare 167). She amplifies the whole situation and makes it out to be much worse than it actually was. Throughout Twelfth Night, Olivia exemplifies, characteristics such as persistence, deceptive, and over exaggeration.
