Midsummer Nights Dream Analysis:)

The play says that love is foolish. In the story they use the magical flowers that make you fall in love with someone and the other flower that makes you come back from the spell. This in reality is like how often the lovers change their mind of who is there true love. The shifting thoughts of "love" shows how foolish and even childish love is considered in the play. Even the duke and his wife noticed how strange it was that Lysander finally decided to go with Hermia instead of Helena. Another supporting example is when Oberon is mad at Titania, he punishes her, but at the end he fall in loves with again. This shows how easily the characters change there mind too, but instead if shifting lovers it moves from I hate you to I love you. In conclusion  the love quadrilateral and the Fairy leaders show how inconstant and silly love is in the story, you just never know which path is will take them next.
