Susan Snyder who writes for the Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare Company, states that - ‘Comedy involves men of middling estate, its perils are small scale, its outcomes peaceful’. This is an excellent summary for the majority of Shakespeare’s plays; however it is not necessarily accurate in relation to MAAN.

I heard about elderly people dying in attics and hospitals believing that the world didn’t care as they slowly ran out of medication and oxygen.
