MacBeth

I read the play and a book of essays about the play.

The play was entertaining, a lot went over my head. The critique was a good companion, I will continue to do this with his other plays, but even some of these were over my head.

Not sure how much I learned from MacBeth, seems like a lot of this was groundbreaking at the time but is now just baked in to our world view.

Two reponses to prophecy:

  • MacBeth agressive action
  • Banquo passive waiting
