“That’s the way of the world… for every man that is faithful to his true love‚ a million end up running after a different lover.” (pg. 91) Shakespeare uses the comedy of Midsummer’s Night Dream to show the many complexities of love. For example‚ Egeus wants his daughter Hermia to marry Demetrius‚ but she is in love with Lysander and him with her. Meanwhile Helena is in love with Demetrius‚ who obviously does not feel the same about her. Even the play that the rude mechanicals put on for Theseus

friendship. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Merchant of Venice‚ Shakespeare highlights the relationship between a father and his daughter. Both of these plays show examples of how common father and daughter relationships are. Also‚ it is not unusual for a comedy to have a father demanding that his daughter marry a certain person. The law of the father plays an important role in the stories of both A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Merchant of Venice. In the play A Midsummer Night’s Dream‚ we are introduced

We all know for a fact that Shakespeare is surely one romanticized writer. After all‚ most of his successful playwrights revolved around the theme of love (Romeo and Juliet and Midsummer’s Night Dream).

Shakespeare’s use of these musical terms‚ concordance and discordance‚ puts in mind a famous quote of his: “If music be the food of love‚ play on‚” This was written soon after AMSND‚ around 1600‚ and the idea of music being the sustaining and rejuvenating factor of love is clearly present in AMSND.

Throughout the past 400+ years times and ways of life have changed‚ but if you think about it‚ stuff that occurred back then still occur now.
