Abstract
All’s Well That Ends Well is a problem comedy that explores love, persistence, and social mobility. Helena, a determined young woman of modest birth, cures the King of France and claims the right to marry Bertram, a nobleman who rejects her and flees. Through disguise and clever strategy, Helena proves her loyalty and ultimately secures reconciliation. The play examines class, gender expectations, and the tension between romantic idealism and reality.
