ESSAY ON: Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream"

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: 5 pages in length. Shakespeare is just as manipulative in his comedic style as other playwrights are in their tragedies; however, the primary difference between the two is that Shakespeare presents such seemingly tragic events as being overblown and ridiculous, which encourages the audience to laugh both at and with the plot. As well, Shakespearean drama is often seen as quiet and pastoral; there is however, another side of his work: dealing with conflict between human beings. These collective elements of Shakespearean drama are particularly evident in A Midsummer Night's Dream, where presentation of the Athenian court in Act I and the world of the fairies in Act II clearly illustrates the extent to which Shakespeare addresses social, historical, cultural content. No bibliography.
