Shakespeare's Macbeth: Acts 1:1-2:2

from Alexander Schmid Podcast Hosted by Alexander Schmid

In this lecture we discuss (a) the geo-politcal situation Macbeth begins with: the treason of Macdonwald; the alliance with Sueno and the Norweyans (Vikings), and the perfidious acts of the Thane of Cawdor; (b) we consider whether Macbeth himself is determined (fated) to become king or whether his actions, and their consequences, lead to this eventuality, and (c) the inhumanity necessary for both Lady Macbeth and Macbeth himself must themselves embody to stick to their equivocating reasoning!
