20 points!!! HELP!! Explore the interaction between Lysander and Hermia in the woods. What do we learn about these two character
s from this scene? In 100-150 words, provide a character analysis of this couple, using examples from Act Il in A Midsummer Night's Dream to support your claims.
In Act II Scene 2, we learn that Lysander and Hermia have gotten lost in the forest while trying to find the house of Lysander's aunt. They decide to spend the night in the forest and continue walking the day after.
We also learn that the two youths truly love each other. Their words are sweet, free of accusations, and with honest commitment. Lysander wants to sleep next to Hermia, but she asks him to respect her. Lysander apologizes, and states that he means no disrespect, but he wants to be close to her. Hermia replies that she understands, but she wants to maintain the proper ways. This shows that both characters are respectful of each other and like to do things the traditional way.
