puck in mythology and in advertising

This character was later taken up on stage, around 1594, by Shakespeare for his A Midsummer Night's Dream, in which Puck is a mischievous sprite also known as Robin Goodfellow. The author takes up the characteristics of the little spirit Puck from mythology and sends him on all kinds of adventures. This little sprite, a servant of Oberon, King of the Fairies, casts spells on people to get what he wants from them. He tries to catch the attention of those he meets through his creativity and inventiveness. He is full of ideas, always bouncing back and creating better ideas than the day before. Puck has fun with confusions of words and situations to create something new and make the play ever more captivating for the audience. Through the spells he casts on those around him, he shows them what he wants them to see. One thinks in particular of the scene in which he gives Nick Bottom the head of a donkey, yet it is with him that Titania, Queen of the Fairies, falls in love when she wakes.
