Sentiment after Reading “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”
William Shakespeare was an English poet and playwright, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language . Shakespeare's youth in local grammar school. He received a good education, but not of a university. Many of his plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy during his lifetime.
After knowing about him,I have read a book which was written by Shakespeare these two weeks. It is a very famous comedy all over the world. As Yu Qiu Yu once said, “Tragedy is not great, neith er is comedy”.But “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”let people read it over with tears and laughter.Therefore,I think it is a successful works. The more I read, the greater I think Shakespeare is.
At the beginning of the book, there is a complicated love among lovers. Hermia refuses to comply with her father, Egeus, who wishes her to marry his chosen man, Demetrius.And Egeus forces her to marry the suitor chosen by her father, or else face death or stay in the temple as a nun. Therefore, Hermia and her lover Lysander decide to elope by escaping through the forest at night. Hermia informs her best friend Helena, but Helena has recently been rejected by Demetrius and decides to win back his favor by revealing the plan to him.
In the forest, Oberon, the king of the fairies, and his queen, Titania, are quarrelling with each other.In order to distract Titania , force her to give in and help Helena win the love of Demetrius, the kind King dispatchs his fairy to pick up a piece of purple peculiar juice and drop it into lo vers’ eyes .After being dropped, they will fall in love with anyone they first see. However, things get worse and worse result from the careless fairy mistaking with two hostile men. Finally,all of lovers find their real mates. All the sad and odd memories are changed into a dream in lovers’ mind. Furthermore, they can’t remember anything when they wake up. I guess why Shakespeare wrote like this is that he wanted to do the same thing just like the people he modeled. We all know he had to marry a woman he d idn’t like at all, but he didn’t protest. So he modeled these characters on purpose to let them resist the rules of society.
I find some common points among Shakespeare’s masterpieces, especially his love stories.Hermia refuses to obey her father to marry Demetrius. Juliet and Romeo also do in the same way, they die together for their love.
Maybe I will forget the names of leading characters,but I believe I will remember the loves and dreams in the book.As far as I am concerned,I think Shakespeare’s writin g style is very different from other authors. The forest in the book presents passion,worry,chaos and unlimited place which is distinct from the real world.Athens presents old rules which limited the people’s actions.
And I think the plot of magic juice i s horrible. If someday people’s mind is controlled by this kind of magical juice, it will be really terrible. The world will be disordered and true love will gone.In my pointof view,motions are real expressions which are different from machine.Therefore th is situation can just exist in Shakespeare’s masterpieces. It’s just a midsummer night’s dream. And I hope this situation that our minds were controlled by others will never happen in our world.Moreover I wish more and more people will read this books.
