DESCRIPTION
Margaret Lucy prepared this essay as a paper for the Stratford-upon-Avon Shakespeare Club where it was read in November 1904. The reception was positive and the presentation was subsequently published.
Subtitled “A Brief Study of Folklore, Superstition, and Witchcraft in ‘Macbeth,’ ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream’ and ‘The Tempest,’ ” Lucy discusses Shakespeare’s meaning in the three plays as to how “the denizens of the unseen world are evidenced as powers which move mankind.”
