《仲夏夜之夢》是莎士比亞最富創造性的劇作之一。莎士比亞把希臘、羅馬神話和英國民間傳說雜糅在一起。全劇描寫瞭四個層次的人物:空靈虛幻的仙王、仙後、仙童和小仙;公爵和他的新夫人;兩對青年男女;還有六個粗俗的工匠。他們之間的關係錯綜復雜,仙界的爭吵引起天時的反常和人情的錯訛。最後,仙王與仙後和好,兩對青年在公爵的婚禮後也成瞭親。全劇充滿瞭笑料,穿插以音樂、舞蹈和戲中戲,籠罩以夏夜神秘的月光和陰影,使人讀瞭也隨之進入詩境、夢境、仙境。
作者簡介
William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in April 1564, and his birth is traditionally celebrated on April 23. The facts of his life, known from surviving documents, are sparse. He was one of eight children born to John Shakespeare, a merchant of some standing in his community. William probably went to the King's New School in Stratford, but he had no university education. In November 1582, at the age of eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway, eight years his senior, who was pregnant with their first child, Susanna. She was born on May 26, 1583. Twins, a boy, Hamnet ( who would die at age eleven), and a girl, Judith, were born in 1585. By 1592 Shakespeare had gone to London working as an actor and already known as a playwright. A rival dramatist, Robert Greene, referred to him as "an upstart crow, beautified with our feathers." Shakespeare became a principal shareholder and playwright of the successful acting troupe, the Lord Chamberlain's Men (later under James I, called the King' s Men). In 1599 the Lord Chamberlain's Men built and occupied the Globe Theater in Southwark near the Thames River. Here many of Shakespeare's plays were performed by the most famous actors of his time, including Richard Burbage, Will Kempe, and Robert Armin. In addition to his 37 plays, Shakespeare had a hand in others, including Sir Thomas More and The Two Noble Kinsmen, and he wrote poems, including Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece. His 154 sonnets were published, probably without his authorization, in 1609. In 1611 or 1612 he gave up his lodgings in London and devoted more and more time to retirement in Stratford, though he continued writing such plays as The Tempest and Henry VII until about 1613. He died on April 23 1616, and was buried in Holy Trinity Church, Stratford. No collected edition of his plays was published during his life-time, but in 1623 two members of his acting company, John Heminges and Henry Condell, put together the great collection now called the First Folio.
莎士比亞的代錶作有四大悲劇:《哈姆雷特》(英:Hamlet)、《奧賽羅》(英:Othello)、《李爾王》(英:King Lear)、《麥剋白》(英:Mac Beth)。著名喜劇:《仲夏夜之夢》《威尼斯商人》《第十二夜》《皆大歡喜》(《As you like it》)。曆史劇:《亨利四世》《亨利五世》《查理二世》。正劇:《羅密歐與硃麗葉》。還寫過154首十四行詩,二首長詩。本·瓊森稱他為“時代的靈魂”,馬剋思稱他和古希臘的埃斯庫羅斯為“人類最偉大的戲劇天纔”。雖然莎士比亞隻用英文寫作,但他卻是世界著名作傢。他的大部分作品都已被譯成多種文字,其劇作也在許多國傢上演。"

他原本是公社畜牧站的站長,後因說話不當犯瞭錯誤,被開除公職遣返迴鄉。老王狐疑地看著我們。他以為我們要衝進夥房哄搶食物吧?所以他說,滾,小兔崽子們!這裏沒有你們吃的,迴傢吃你們娘的奶頭去吧。我們自然聽到瞭他的話,我們甚至也考慮瞭他的建議,但他的建議無異於罵人。我們都是七八歲的孩子,怎麼還可能吃奶?即便我們還吃奶,但我們的母親,都餓得半死,乳房緊貼在肋骨上,哪裏有奶可吃?但沒人去跟老王理論。我們站在煤堆前,低頭彎腰,像地質愛好者發現瞭奇異礦石;我們抽動鼻子,像從廢墟中尋找食物的狗。說到這裏,首先要感謝陳鼻,其次要感謝王膽。是陳鼻首先撿起一塊煤,放在鼻邊嗅,皺著眉,仿佛在思索什麼重大問題。他的鼻子又高又大,是我們取笑的對象。思索瞭一會兒,他將手中那塊煤,猛地砸在一塊大煤上。煤塊應聲而碎,那股香氣猛地散發齣來。他揀起一小塊,王膽也揀起一小塊;他用舌頭舔舔,品咂著,眼睛轉著圈兒,看看我們;她也跟著學樣兒,舔煤,看我們。後來,他們倆互相看看,微微笑笑,不約而同地,小心翼翼地,用門牙啃下一點煤,咀嚼著,然後又咬下一塊,猛烈地咀嚼著。興奮的錶情,在他們臉上洋溢。陳鼻的大鼻子發紅,上邊布滿汗珠。王膽的小鼻子發黑,上麵沾滿煤灰。我們癡迷地聽著他們咀嚼煤塊時發齣的聲音。我們驚訝地看到他們吞咽。他們竟然把煤咽下去瞭。他壓低聲音說:夥計們,好吃!她尖聲喊叫:哥呀,快來吃啊!他又抓起一塊煤,更猛地咀嚼起來。她用小手揀起一塊大煤,遞給王肝。我們學著他們的樣子,把煤塊砸碎,撿起來,用門牙先啃下一點,品嘗滋味,雖有些牙磣,但滋味不錯。陳鼻大公無私,舉起一塊煤告訴我們:夥計們,吃這樣的,這樣的好吃。他指著煤塊中那半透明的、淺黃色的、像琥珀一樣的東西說,這種帶鬆香的好吃。我們已經上過自然課,知道煤是許多世紀前,埋在地殼中的森林變成的。給我們上自然課的是我們的校長吳金榜。我們不相信校長的話,我們也不相信課本上的話。森林是綠色的,怎麼可能變成黑色的煤炭?我們以為校長和課本都是在鬍說八道。發現瞭煤塊中的鬆香,纔明白校長沒有騙我們,課本也沒有騙我們。我們班三十五個學生,除瞭幾個女生不在,其餘都在。我們每人攥著一塊煤,咯咯崩崩地啃,咯咯嚓嚓地嚼,每個人的臉上,都帶著興奮的、神秘的錶情。我們仿佛在進行一場即興錶演,我們仿佛在玩一種古怪遊戲。肖下唇拿著一塊煤,翻來覆去地看,不吃,臉上帶著衊視的神情。他不吃煤因為他不餓,他不餓因為他爹是公社糧庫保管員。夥夫老王驚呆瞭。他手上沾著麵粉跑齣來。天哪,他手上沾著麵粉!當時在學校夥房就餐的除瞭我們的校長和我們的教導主任之外,還有兩個在鄉下駐點的公社乾部。老王驚呼:孩子們,你們乾什麼?你們 ……吃煤?煤也能吃?王膽用小小的手舉著一塊大煤,細聲細氣地說:大叔,太好吃瞭,給你一塊嘗嘗。老王搖著頭,道:王膽,你這小女孩,也跟著這幫野小子鬍鬧。王膽咬瞭一口煤,說:真的好吃耶,大叔。這時已是傍晚,紅日西沉。那兩個在這裏搭夥就餐的公社乾部騎著車子來瞭。他們也被我們吸引住瞭。老王揮舞著扁擔轟趕我們。那個姓嚴的公社乾部— —好像是個副主任——製止瞭老王。他的臉色很難看,揮瞭一下手,轉身鑽進瞭夥房。
