Love

An example of the love in the book is when Lysander runs away with Hermia into the forest where they would meet and get married.

Also, many other different kinds of love occurred in the play such as unrequited love and perplexed love. A great example of unrequited love is when Lysander quotes "The course of true love never did run smooth" after Egeus had declared Hermia to marry Demetrius. Furthermore, a situation of perplexed love was when the juices of a flower were anointed on Lysander's and Demetrius's eyes by Puck, causing them to love the first thing their eyes were on which turned out to be Helena. This confusion caused Hermia to become perplexed into agitated.

Jealousy

An example of jealousy was when Helena deeply in love with Demetrius, who is in love with Hermia. Helena is jealous of Hermia's beauty and she claims that she too is as beautiful. She often wonders what Hermia has that she doesn't that makes men follow her. So, out of jealousy, Helena tells Demetrius that Hermia and Lysander plan to escape to the woods.

Dominance

Dominance is having the ability to control situations and have some sense of power and organisation in a situation.

At the start of the play, Duke Theseus can be described as dominating. We are introduced to him as high class character who authority over many of the characters in the play. For instance, when Egeus, Hermia's father who dominates her, asks Theseus to apply a horrible decision if she refuses to his decisions: To marry Demetrius, join a nunnery or be killed.
