hermia - midnight summer's dream

Hermia , Lysander , Helena and Demetrius represent young love in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream . They are potrayed as foolish and fickle , acting like children and requiring a parental figure to guide them . The parental figures are Hermia's father , Egeus , and figuratively Theseus , the mortal ruler , and Oberon , the mystical ruler.

Demetrius is a fool because he is unaware that his love changes through out the play. We learn from Demetrius that he has loved Helena before bestowing his affections on Hermia ( 1.1 106-107 , 242-243 ). It is not for nothing that he is termed "spotted and inconstant man" ( 1.1 110 ). Athough at the start of the play Demetrius no longer loves Helena. ( 2.1 195 ) Demetrius says, "I love thee not , therefore pursue me not." ( 2.1 201 ) "Hence , get thee gone , and follow me no more." In Act 3 Scene 2 , Demetrius after being juiced begins to love Helena. ( 3.2 172-176 ) Demetrius says , "Lysander , keep thy Hermia; I will none. If e'er I loved her , all that love is gone. My heart to her but as guest - wise sojourned , And not to helen is it home returned , there to reamain." This proves how fickle he is , for he is not aware of his changing love once for Helena then for Hermia then retu


Where is Demetrius? O, how fit a word

Is that vile name to perish on my sword! ( 2.2 109-117 )

rning to Helena with the help of the mystical father Oberon.

What worser place can I beg in your love-

That through thy bosom makes me see thy heart.

Neglect me , lose me: only give me leave.

He also spites the name of Hermia . ( 2.2 118 - 120 ) "Content with Hermia? No I do repent The tediouis minutes I with her have spent . not Hermia , but Helena I love."

And yet a place of high respect with me-

She is so focused on the degrading and humilating realtionship with Demetrius that she can not accept Lysander's compliments as true. She believes him to be mocking her.
