‘Enter Cælia, the Fairy Queen in her night attire’:
Shakespeare and the Fairies

The 2010 British Academy Shakespeare Lecture,
given by Professor Michael Hattaway
6.00pm, Thursday, 22 April 2010
Royal Society, 6-9 Carlton House Terrace, London SW1

Do you believe in fairies? We all remember the fraught declaration made in Peter Pan (1904): ‘Every time a child says “I don’t believe in fairies,” there’s a little fairy somewhere that falls down dead.’ When we turn further back, to the age of Shakespeare, perhaps the beginning of an age of disenchantment, can we ascertain either whether Shakespeare and other writers ‘believed in’ fairies, or what they thought about them? The problem turns out to be unsolvable, but we can examine how both writers of the English Renaissance and Reformations and also modern theatre directors have thought with fairies, used them to explore many aspects of life then and now. Fairy-lore was woven into cultural debates over the proper roles for women, over masculine and feminine sexuality – and fairies served as border-land figures in domestic and rural life. InRomeo and Juliet (Mercutio’s Queen Mab speech) and A Midsummer Night’s Dream the fairies may serve rather to signal mental states and power the machinery of the play than as figures of supernatural agency. We shall also consider the ways in which the textual descriptions of the smallness of fairies can be matched with theatrical images in selected productions.

Visit the event website for further information on this fascinating lecture
