Hey!
Hope this helps...

The two different types of fools in the Twelfth Night, are the fools that are looked at like insane and/or madness. Although there is some controversy of this actually being foolishness, it is looked at that these types of people are fools because they are making fun of themselves and of their own being.
Another type of fool are well... Idiots. These types of fools are often looked at like those who cannot understand something given to them or are (for example) drunk when the information is given to them.

So the two types of fools are "idiots" and "madness/insanity"

Answer from: gabesurlas

Fools and foolishness are important themes in Twelfth Night. The difference between the two kinds of fools in the play may sound the same but they are very different. In the play, there are some who are called fools because of their obsession and determination for something that they'll never have. For example: In the play, Duke Orsino is a fool because he won't stop trying to make Olivia his wife. He acts stubbornly even though Olivia has already rejected him. This is an example of a fool who isn't stupid, but obsessed this leads him to do foolish things. The other type of fool in the play was the fool who didn't take into account what others wanted only what he wanted and thought himself superior to the rest. Also, that type of fool tries to take advantage of the rest and is rude. For example: In the play, Malvolio is a fool because he only wants to marry Olivia for her money and wants to take advantage of her. he is also a fool because he thinks he is superior to the rest so he thinks every girl wants to be his wife including Olivia. This leads Malvolio to make foolish actions and embarrass himself.

Read the excerpt from "the most dangerous game." again rainsford lifted the heavy knocker, and let it fall. the door opened then, opened as suddenly as if it were on a spring, and rainsford stood blinking in the river of glaring gold light that poured out. the first thing rainsford's eyes discerned was the largest man rainsford had ever seen—a gigantic creature, solidly made and black bearded to the waist. in his hand the man held a long-barreled revolver, and he was pointing it straight at rainsford's heart. the details of this excerpt show that rainsford sees ivan as a(n) individual.
