Midsummer night's dream / Shakespeare, William; Hackett, Helen 1977  Book
Shakespeare, William Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Devon, Northcote House, 1977.
Description viii, 88pBlue spine
Series Writers and their work
Summary/Abstract Chang and transformation are central to the action, themes and language of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream.' In this lucid study, Helen Hackett shows how the play participates in a widespread 1590's concern with mutability; often, as here, expressed through moon-iamsgery and associated with representations of the ageing Virgin Queen. It is also very much a play about procreative change, set at one of the 'green hinges' of the year.
