He is her father.
Demetrius has Egeus's consent to marry her, but not, unfortunately, Hermia's.
Hermia is the daughter of Egeus in the play "A Midsummer Night's Dream." Egeus wants Hermia to marry Demetrius, but she is in love with Lysander. This conflict drives much of the plot in the play.
Hermia
Egeus is Hermia's father.
In A Midsummer Night's Dream, Egeus wants his daughter Hermia to marry Demetrius. Hermia wants to marry Lysander.
Egeus accuses Lysander of seducing his daughter, Hermia, and corrupting her with false promises of love. He believes Lysander has won her affections through deceit, leading Hermia to defy her father's wishes to marry Demetrius, the man Egeus has chosen for her. Egeus demands that Hermia obey him and marry Demetrius, threatening her with severe consequences if she does not comply.
Egeus.
i think it was hermia's dad, egeus
It is not clear from the text whether Egeus harbours a grudge against Hermia and Lysander. It's certainly played that way in the 1999 film. And it makes sense.
Egeus' speech in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" conveys his desire for his daughter Hermia to marry Demetrius, despite her love for Lysander. He appeals to Theseus, the Duke of Athens, to uphold the law that gives him control over Hermia's marriage. Egeus believes Hermia should obey his wishes or face consequences.
Egeus accuses Lysander of using his cunning words and false vows to win Hermia's affections, believing that he has charmed her into loving him against her father's wishes.
Egeus was angry with his daughter Hermia because she refused to marry the man he had chosen for her, Demetrius, and instead wanted to marry Lysander. This went against Athenian law, and Egeus felt that Hermia was disobeying him and causing shame to their family.
