Work:  Midsummer´s Night´s Dream. Author: William Shakespeare.

1. Introduction

When it is possible to read several foreign author names, ones cause the

most interest that other. At the same time, the impact that work makes

us could be dependent to the level of maturity and the different

experiences that we have had. Because, for example it is not the same to

read Shakespeare currently, that when I was in the high school in view

that my literary enoyment has changed and I feel that I can read better 

Shakespeare!s works. In the case of "idsummer!s #ight!s $ream, I

have more arguments to analy%e now.

&irstly, the name of the work was magic and the theme of love was an

interesting topic that it has been used as an inspiration in all times.

Specifically, in it work charm, enthusiasm, and love farce are mixed.

An important characteristic of the work is that it may be considered as a

comedy of manners, which is concerned with the conventional behavior 

of men and women under certain social codes.
