Ghibli Hills/Theatre: Difference between revisions

 

* In Shakespeare's ''As You Like It'', the exiled duke, and later his daughter and niece, take refuge in the Forest of Arden. In fact, by the end of the play, so many people have taken refuge in the Forest of Arden that the usurping duke sets out to take it by force. (He doesn't get far.) Despite the population explosion, the forest proper remains a Ghibli Hills, pristine except for Orlando's carvings of love on the trees... It has more than a touch of [[Arcadia]] about it, as witness that the daughter is able to buy out a man's flocks of sheep.
