Character Analysis

Hermia

Hermia is first introduced as a girl refusing to listen to her father, but over the course of the play her character is developed to be an incredibly strong young woman who relentlessly sticks up for what she believes in – love. She knows that she loves Lysander, and she also knows that love isn’t something you choose. She is so confident in this that she is even willing to risk death for it and that’s pretty cool.
