A Midsummer Night's Dream
Cantika Wulan T.R
"A Midsummer Night's Dream" is a famous play written by William Shakespeare. Written in the late 1500s, the narrative blends elements of love, fantasy, and comedy.
The story is set in Athens and a magical forest. In this forest, a group of young lovers are caught in a web of misunderstandings. We also meet Oberon and Titania, the king and queen of the fairies, who are in the middle of a dispute. Then there's Puck, the mischievous spirit, who makes everything even more complicated and brings a lot of humor to the story. I was particularly struck by how Shakespeare portrays love as something that can make people act in unusual ways. Characters like Puck and Bottom are especially entertaining and made me laugh. Puck, with all his tricks, connects the human and fairy worlds, creating a lot of delightful moments.
The play also shows how love can confuse people and lead them to act irrationally. Through characters like Hermia, Lysander, Demetrius, and Helena, we see how love can influence the way people think and behave, often in hilarious ways. With its charming language and captivating characters, this play is both relevant and enjoyable to read. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the enchantment of Shakespeare’s world. It not only entertains but also offers insights into the nature of love and human relationships.
