What is discussed about mortals and fairies as beings in this section

Bottom, a commoner and a lower mortal who’s a lower class being has been elevated to the higher
status of the fairies
Titania is the queen of the fairies who has now fallen in love with bottom and is aware that he is a
mortal, she showers him with love and gifts such as ‘mulberries’ and ‘purple grapes’, which are royal
luxuries, also shown as purple is the colour of royalty and titania is a queen. Hence adding to the
previous point Of Bottoms climb of society in an unfamiliar environment due to false love.THe power
of love transcends class barriers
What are some of the most significant /comedic descriptions Titania ascribes to bottom here, Why?
Titania heavily praises bottom and puts him on a high horse using various comedic descriptions in
Pages 65 to 67 of ‘A Midsummer Nights Dream’”.There are many instances of this:

1. ‘Angel’—> Bottoms persona is angelic and the opposite of what he usually is ie stupid and
this again links to how the false love has caused him to look better in a unfamiliar persons
eyes and he is given attention that he has never been given before
2. ‘Gentle’—> love point
3. ‘Wise’—> stupid point
4. ‘Beautiful’—> love point
5. ‘Gentleman’—> This is quite the opposite of what bottom is and she calls him what he wants
to portray and show to the entire world ie false appearance due to false love
6. ‘Lover’—> this is a literal nod to Bottoms new found place in titanias life and her saying this as
her final line of the scene is further establishing this.

General Notation on Titania and Bottoms Relationship and General Analysis

The positioning of mortals and fairies in society aswell as complete beings who are above or below
each other is explicated through various techniques and supported by many strong points of
evidence. As titania has now fallen in love with bottom and is aware that he is a mortal, she showers
him with love and gifts such as ‘mulberries’ and ‘purple grapes’, which are royal luxuries, also shown
as purple is the colour of royalty, even though titania usually hates mortals and the people from
Athens as they have outcast the fairies out of their society even though the fairies are more powerful
than the mortals.Titania also calls bottom ‘wise’ and ‘beautiful’ showing the reverse of the roles that
fairies and mortals play due to the potion and magic that is the fairies upper hand over the
mortals.This is sort of ironic as the thing that the fairies cherish and hold power due to it is the very
thing that destroys and deceives their queens realityEven though the fairies are wiser and more
beautiful than mortals, titania subconsciously brings bottom up to these qualities to be able to justify
her love .Bottom’s head has also been replaced with that of a donkey, which is sort of ironic and funny
as she calls him wise even though he is a literal donkey.””Bottom also being a donkey may also add
to titania’s love for him as he is an animal which is related to nature and titaniais a fairy leaving in the
forest who loves and endorses the earths natural beauty and finds solace and comfort in it during
times of trouble such as before puck puts the potion in her eyes and after her squabble with
oberon.’’’This confuses the audience and is sort of a joke, as Is everything with bottom showing that
even though titania brings him to her level and he takes himself very seriously, he tries to take in a
upper class dialect of the court of Athens even though he doesn’t understand anything they speak
about, further showing his stupidity.Bottoms welcoming nature towards titanias love is also the first
time a person from the upper class has given him importance all because of a scheme of the
upperclass.This once again establishes his role and society and again creates the barriers of society
even though they are in the forbidden forest where most of the characters here have run away to get
away from the strict rules of Athens.
