FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Macbeth is one of Shakespeares finest plays, and presents a mans conscience and the effect of guilt on his mind. A dark and bloody play, Macbeth explores reality and illusion; witchcraft and the supernatural; ambition and kingship; the natural order; light and life, darkness and death; blood and dead babies. Written just after the Gunpowder Plot, and at a time when people were often tried for treason, Macbeth makes much of the beliefs of an extremely superstitious age. King James 1 believed in demons conjured by devils and wild women who could fly through the air, raise storms and tell the future. Their prime purpose was to create havoc and corruption. Whether or not Shakespeare shared these beliefs, all are featured in Macbeth to spine chilling effect. This new edition includes the complete text with explanatory notes and a full introduction that describes the setting, summarises the plot and profiles the main characters. It discusses Shakespeares language and the plays themes, and it gives typical essay and test questions to help students prepare for exams.Includes: Introduction The Story of Macbeth The Plays Characters Themes and Language Examining the Play The Play Notes throughout Author Biography Angela Sheehan, who introduces the play, is a Shakespeare enthusiast.
