The Queen’s Torture and The Winter’s Tale

The further exploration is carried out to have a deeper understanding of King Leontes and his jealousy and violence. Autolycus, the rogue, is given a detailed avaluation so as to reveal his active role in the play and the artistic flavour on the stage. The brave and straight forward lady Paulina is held in high regard because of both of her brilliant words and benevolent actions. The fourth Act of the play is regarded as the excellent part of the play based on its rich and colourful picture of the rural life by the playwright Shakespeare. Since Hermione, the heroine, is the main character of all the main characters, and the fate of hers is the focus of the whole play, so the title of this play is in need of change.
