Essay on Puck from A Midsummer Nights Dream

I need to analyse his character, image and compare him to other Characters.

Answers
Ok so a good place to start is to look at the kind of language Shakespeare uses to describe Puck. Language is one of the key ways that Shakespeare builds up images of characters. Does it make him appear to be like an animal? How is this similar or different to the language he uses for other characters?

It appears that he's very mischievous and you could back that up with the kinds of tricks he plays on people within the play
