Early on in the play, we learn that Titania has been taking care of a "lovely" Indian boy and spends all her time lavishing him with love and affection (2.1). This has caused a huge rift between Titania and her husband
According to the Queen of the Fairies, her good friend died in childbirth and Titania has agreed to raise the boy out of love for his mother.
Who is Titania in love with? Despite their argument, Titania does seem to be ultimately in love with Oberon. During the play, she temporarily falls in love with Bottom because of a magical love potion that Puck puts in her eyes.
While Titania cares for the Indian Boy as a result of a promise she made to his mother, Oberon's interest in him is not as explicitly stated. He wishes for the boy to be his “henchman” (2.1. 121) or a “Knight of his train” (2.1.
Oberon, who is quarreling with his wife, Titania, uses the flower juice on her eyes. She falls in love with Bottom, who now, thanks to Robin Goodfellow, wears an ass's head.As the lovers sleep, Robin Goodfellow restores Lysander's love for Hermia, so that now each young woman is matched with the man she loves.
Why won't Titania give up the changeling to Oberon? She promised the changeling's mother that she would take care of her child. So, it is her job to take care of the child.
Titania refuses to let the boy go because his mother was a close friend of hers, and when she died in childbirth, Titania agreed to raise her son. Hatching a plan to win the Indian boy, Oberon sends Puck in search of a flower called love-in-idleness.
Oberon is angry with Titania because she is holding true to her promise and not giving him what he wants. Then Oberon makes a final attempt at a deal and says he will go with her and her fairies if she gives him the boy. Titania refuses and leaves.
Robin applies nectar to Lysander's eyes to undo the spell that has drawn him to Helena. Act 4, scene 1 Titania and her attendants pamper Bottom, who falls asleep with her. Oberon, watching them, tells Robin that Titania has given him the Indian boy and thus they can now remove the spells from Titania and Bottom.
Three people were affected by the flower's love potion. Titania, the original victim, fell in love with Bottom while he had the head of a donkey. Lysander, Hermia's true love, was tricked into loving Helena.
Oberon replies that Titania has been fooling around on the side, too, and that she once hooked up with Theseus, who's about to get married. 2.1: Titania says that her big, knockdown, drag out fights with Oberon have disrupted the natural world, causing wind, rain, flooding, and so on.
In the same grove, the sleeping Titania wakes. When she sees Bottom, the flower juice on her eyelids works its magic, and she falls deeply and instantly in love with the ass-headed weaver.
Oberon wants Titania's changeling child to serve him in his court instead of hers. He also wants to satisfy his own jealousy, as Titania and Oberon have accused each other of romantic dalliances with mortals: Titania with Theseus and Oberon with Hippolyta.
Due to an enchantment cast by Oberon's servant Puck, Titania magically falls in love with a "rude mechanical" (a labourer), Nick Bottom the weaver, who has been given the head of a donkey by Puck, who feels it is better suited to his character.
At the start of the play we see Bottom trying to convince Peter Quince that he should play all the characters in the play to celebrate the Duke's wedding. During one of the mechanical's rehearsals he is magically transformed into an ass, and in this state Titania, Queen of the Fairies, falls in love with him.
Oberon wants Titania to turn the child over to him. Oberon sends Puck to find a special flower that, when it's juice is placed on the eyelids, causes that individual to fall in love with the next living creature seen. He plans to put it on Titania's eyelids to cause her to give him the boy.
According to Titania, she used to be friends with the kid's human mother back in India but "she, being mortal, of that boy did die" (2.1. 140). Translation: The woman died in childbirth, so Titania is fiercely committed to raising the boy for her friend.
Titania is so angry with Oberon she refuses to be in his presence. Titania respects Oberon and is quick to forgive him and forget their arguments after her experiences in the play.
Titania is the Queen of the Fairies and wife to Oberon, and although she and her husband seem evenly matched at the beginning of the play, most of Titania's power is completely overshadowed once she is enchanted.
He loves her and wants to have her all to himself again. Consequently, Titania falls in love with Bottom, who at this point has a donkey's head instead of his own. Oberon eventually feels guilty about this and reverses the magic, demonstrating his mercy: "Her dotage now I do begin to pity."
Finally, we learned that Oberon and Titania are both jealous of each other. Oberon is jealous that Titania is keeping the Indian changeling as her attendant when Oberon wants him for his henchman, with a changeling being a child that fairies steal and raise as their own, leaving the partners with a fairy child instead.
After her dancing and revelry, Titania falls asleep by the stream bank. Oberon creeps up on her and squeezes the flower's juice onto her eyelids, chanting a spell, so that Titania will fall in love with the first creature she sees upon waking. Oberon departs, and Lysander and Hermia wander into the glade.
Tie up my love's tongue. Bring him silently. You know this idea of capture we've been talking about throughout the play, here yet again Titania's way of keeping hold of the thing that she loves, having power over the thing that she loves is by capture, is by tying him up and bringing him silently.
Titania is the fairy queen from Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream. In the Sisters Grimm series, she is revealed to be the Queen of Faerie. She is married to Oberon, the King, and has two sons by him called Puck - her eldest son and also the heir to the throne of Faerie, and Mustardseed.
Oberon and Titania enter and bless the palace and its occupants with a fairy song, so that the lovers will always be true to one another, their children will be beautiful, and no harm will ever visit Theseus and Hippolyta. Oberon and Titania take their leave, and Puck makes a final address to the audience.
