  • Description

    Macbeth is a tragedy and one of William Shakespeare’s darkest plays.

    Summary of the Play

    Macbeth is a valorous general in the service of King Duncan of Scotland. When a trio of witches flatter him in prophecy, they fuel his narcissism and ambition. They tell him that he will one day become the King of Scotland. Also encouraged by his wife, Macbeth murders the present king and seizes the throne. However, his rule is not without tribulations as he is soon gripped by paranoia and guilt. He becomes a tyrant and kills more people to protect himself from enmity and suspicion. His actions spark a civil war which engulfs Macbeth and his wife in madness and, eventually, death. This play is Shakespeare’s shortest and is loosely based on the lives of King Macbeth of Scotland, Macduff, and Duncan. It adapts their story from Holinshed's Chronicles, a work on history well-known in his time.

    About William Shakespeare

    William Shakespeare was an English playwright and poet. Popularly called “The Bard of Avon”, he is largely considered one of the greatest writers in English history. Among his most famous plays are: Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, King Lear and A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

    The above play is the subject of much superstition and is often called “The Scottish Play” or “MacBee” to avoid its alleged curse.

    Macbeth has been adapted into several films. An upcoming adaptation by Justin Kurzel is currently filming and is due for release in 2015. It stars Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, Sean Harris, Paddy Considine, Elizabeth Debicki, and David Thewlis.

    Author Info
    • William Shakespeare, perhaps the greatest English playwright ever, was born in 1564. By 1592 he was sufficiently established as a playwright to be criticized in print. He was a leading member of the Lord Chamberlain's Company, which became the King's Men on the accession of James I in 1603. He died in April 1616 and is buried in Holy Trinity Church, Stratford-upon-Avon.

    Super!

    The standard of the introduction and notes are as per the standards of the Arden Edition. The editor has done a commendable job to keep the commentary and notes as per the recent developments in Shakespeare criticism.

    Only one regret. The quality of the pages could have been far better.

    Nevertheless, prioritizing the materials provided by the editor in this edition, I give it a 5⭐
