No sooner is their vow made than it is tested, however, as the Princess of France and three of her ladies arrive in Navarre on a diplomatic mission. The young men fall instantly and hopelessly in love, and the tension between their vow and their passion forms the subject of this charming and sparkling early comedy."
  • "Perhaps the most demanding of Shakespeare's comedies Love's labours lost tells the story of the King of Navarre and his love for a French princess."@en
  • "The young King of Navarre and three of his courtiers experience tension between their vow to study and fast, and falling helplessly in love."
  • ""Love's labour's lost" appears to be one of Shakespeare's earliest works and was probably first performed about 1595. The chief purposes of the play seems for much of the action to be the critical, comic testing of love and language. It questions conventions, even the most basic of conventions, words themselves, and shows them as comically vulnerable. The lovers' problem of expressing their love is that the means at their disposal are mainly conventional: innocent speeches are pounced upon, the use of words is mercilessly dissected and the mistaking of words used to comic effect. But for all the scepticism, the play is not austere or bitter, and the final beautiful songs of spring and winter lie close to its heart."
