First of all, I would ask your teacher what he/she means by "conservative". Then I would go here:

Yeah, Sparknotes gives good synopses for most of Shakespeare's plays.

It would seem the definition of conservative plays is,

>conservative plays which ensure that subversive elements are ultimitely contained.

If so, I would have to disagree with the plays chosen by the instructor. Is Iago a subversive element that is ultimately contained? Au contraire. Well, yeah, he dies, but so does everyone else. Are Caesar's murderers ultimately contained? Brutus commits suicide - is that a containment?

I think of As You Like It more as a romantic comedy than a conservative work. Yuck, tough assignment.
