Summary: "Ein St.-Johannis-Nachts-Traum" by William Shakespeare is a theatrical play likely written in the late 16th century. The story unfolds in Athens and a nearby enchanted forest, where romantic entanglements and magical mishaps create a web of confusion among the characters, including the lovers Hermia, Lysander, and Demetrius, as well as supernatural beings like Oberon and Titania. The beginning of the play introduces a royal wedding between Theseus and Hippolyta, as well as Hermia's defiance against her father's choice of Demetrius as her husband. Instead, she loves Lysander and plans to elope with him. Meanwhile, Helena, who is in love with Demetrius, feels heartbroken as she believes she cannot compete with Hermia’s beauty. As the story progresses in the forest, Oberon and his mischievous servant Puk plan to intervene in the lovers’ fates using magical potions, leading to a series of misunderstandings and humorous situations. The opening sets the stage for themes of love, rivalry, and the whimsical nature of the fairy world intertwined with human struggles. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
