Paper Summary:

This paper examines love as the central theme in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare. The paper contends that love is seen in several relationships throughout the play and, therefore, can be seen as the overall theme throughout the play. The paper examines each of those relationships and instances where love is prevalent.

From the Paper:

"The theme of A Midsummer Nights Dream by William Shakespeare can be found in the true statement of Lysander in Act I Scene I Line 134, "the course of true love never did run smooth." (A Midsummer Nights Dream) During the course of this play four young lovers enter the woods each battling their own rocky course of love. They each experience several different things before finally emerging from the woods two happy couples. Two other couples also experience a difficult path to love during the course of the play, the duke and his new wife, and the mystical beings Titania and Oberon. At times these couples' paths cross and desires are swapped, making this tale a true story of difficult love and uneasy paths."

I'm a criminal justice major with a 3.5 GPA in my senior year. I write the majority of my papers in APA but from time to time venture into MLA. Most of my papers have been graded as A to A-. I was an english major for three years before switching to criminal justice in search of something more than a teaching career when I graduate. I'm also a published writer of short fiction and poetry.
