Shakespeare William A Midsummer Night's Dream
William Shakespeare (1564-1616) was an English poet, playwright, and actor, considered by many as the greatest English writer. Hundreds of specialists were able to translate his works into every major language, and most of the plays are performed more often than those of any other author. Being one of the most popular comedy works for the stage even in our days, "A Midsummer Night's Dream" tells the story of Hermia from Athens, who is in love with Lysander. Not willing to obey her father's will to marry Demetrius, they both run to the woods to avoid the death sentence. Demetrius pursues them, while also pursued by Helena, who is in love with him. Then they and a group of six actors fall under the influence of the fairies who inhabit the forest

Shakespeare William A Midsummer Night's Dream
A Midsummer Night's Dream is perhaps Shakespeare's most popular play, particularly as a first introduction to Shakespeare for children--filled as it is with a marvelous mixture of aristocrats, workers, and fairies. Simple and engaging on the surface, it is none the less a highly original and sophisticated work, remarkable for both its literary and its theatrical mastery. It is one of the very few of Shakespeare's plays which do not draw on narrative sources, which suggests that it reflects his deepest imaginative concerns to an unusual degree. For this edition, Peter Holland's introduction looks at dreams and dreamers, tracing the materials out of which Shakespeare constructs his world of night and shadows.
