This is a paper on two pairs of twinned plays by Shakespeare. The role of nature as healing agent is described. A comparison between green and human nature shows that in an Elizabethan view assumed female properties can be matched to properties of nature. Performing a spacial analysis we find an enormous potenial for creativity in intermediate spaces. Be it between patriarchal and natural space or between what was seen in Shakespeare ́s time as male or female behaviour.
