Episode 208: “Best of” Series – A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Acts IV & V, Ep. 121
The Literary Life PodcastOn The Literary Life podcast this week, we will wrap up our series on Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream . Our hosts, Angelina, Cindy and Thomas walk through the last two acts of the play, sharing their thoughts on the structure and ideas presented here. Angelina talks about why she thinks Shakespeare resolves the different conflicts the way he does. They discuss the importance of the play within the play, the fairy tale atmosphere, and the unreality of time and space. Cindy and Angelina both bring up plot points that feel slightly problematic to them. Angelina highlights the theme of harmonizing discord and bringing order from disorder. To sign up for Thomas Banks and Anne Phillips’ webinar on Herodotus taking place January 30, 2024, head over to HouseofHumaneLetters.com/webinars. F
