However we know that this attitude of men against women in Shakespeare’s plays is a reflection of Renaissance society. We can see the most remarkable examples of male dominance in A Midsummer Night’s Dream

    Love Love is one of the most perplexing manifestations in human existence and artists have long debated over what it is and what it means to them. In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet‚ love is seen through a tragic lens‚ ending in suicide. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream‚ love is a folly and used to evoke laughter. However‚ some of the notions of love presented in either play tend to coincide‚ as in Friar Lawrence’s speech in Act 2‚ Scene 6 and Lysander’s lines in Act 1‚ Scene 1. Each speech features rhetoric
