    Which aspect of A Midsummer Night's Dream best exemplifies Shakespeare's exploration of the theme of love and desire?

    A Midsummer Night's Dream is a play written by William Shakespeare in 1600. It explores the ins and outs of love and desire through the lens of a comedy. Using multiple subplots, Shakespeare tells the stories of four young lovers fighting for each other's hearts, a bickering fairy queen and king, and a group of slapstick craftsmen with dreams of performing for the duke. Elements of the supernatural are present during one fateful night in the forest that involves fairy magic, mysterious love potions, and human-to-animal transformation.

    What three options does Hermia face when confronted by her father in Act 1, Scene 1 of A Midsummer Night's Dream?

    A Midsummer Night's Dream Act 1, Scene 1, Theseus and Hippolyta discuss their upcoming wedding. They are reminiscing on how they met when they are interrupted by a furious Egeus, who complains that his daughter refuses to marry her approved suitor and has instead fallen for someone else (Lysander). Theseus tries to convince the determined Hermia that it would be wise to follow her father's guidance and even likens him to a god over her. Hermia fires back that her father should try looking at Lysander through her eyes to see how great of a man he is. She is then given three devastating options: marry Demetrius (a man she doesn't love), commit herself to a nunnery, or face death.

    Marry Demetrius, become a nun, or run away

    Marry Demetrius, become a nun, or face death

    Marry Lysander, become a nun, or run away
