摘　　要：As You Like It and Twelfth Night dissolve the usual gender conventions through their emphasis on crossdressing.This paper attempts to reveal that crossdressing enables the two heroines Rosalind and Viola to exhibit their intelligence and achieve subjective freedom without abandoning their feminine quality,and thus blends the Elizabethan gender roles prescribed for women and for men.In this sense,these two plays make it possible to believe that there is no such thing as a fixed masculinity or femininity.
