In the village of Monte Athena in Italy at the turn of the 19th century, necklines are high, parents are rigid, and marriage is seldom a matter of love. Thus, Demetrius and Lysander both want Hermia but she only has eyes for Lysander, while her father wants only Demetrius for his son-in-law. Poor Helena burns hot for Demetrius, who avoids her like the plague. Meanwhile, fairy king Oberon is engaged in a battle of wits with his queen, Titania, and has commanded a trick of Puck, which naturally goes horribly wrong. They are all in the enchanted wood on a midsummer's eve, coming out in the end charged with a gift from the fairies--an enchanted eroticism--that sweeps them away to bed chambers and weddings. The film celebrates love's ability to alter reality while quietly acknowledging that any attempt to portray the feeling of love ultimately falls shortOriginally released as a motion picture by Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation in 1998.

Gutes Ex. - Englisch; Latein. - Matthew Gwinne or Gwynne (ca. 1558-1627) was born in London. It is known that before teaching Physics at Gresham College in London he began his career as a fellow of St. John's College, Txford, where, besides his profession of medicine, he distinguished himself as a playwright. In the dedicatory letter to the 1607 edition of Vertumnus he states that he had been professing medicine for twenty and teaching it for fourteen years. The comedy Vertumnus is his second play, his tragedy Nero having ceen printed in 1603. Vertumnus was performed in 1605, on the occasion of the first ceremonial visit to Oxford of King James I, accompanied by Henry, Prince of Wales, the Queen, and the court. The performance took place on the Christ Church stage on the 23th August, the third night of the visit. Though well acted cy a company consisting chiefly of St. John's men, the play met with as little success as the two plays which had preceded it on the previous nights (the pastoral Alba and the tragedy Ajax Flagellifer). The King fell asleep in the middle of the performance although the author in courteous anticipation of his presence had given the actors the opportunity of extolling him in a eulogy at three different moments in the play: in the prologue, in the fourth act, and in the epilogue. By contrast, the King had been delighted to see the open-air informal interlude Tres Sibyllae, also written by Gwinne, which was acted in front of St. John's College on the day of the King's entry into Oxford. ...
