From the start of Macbeth, we can see that the Scottish realm is centered around the elements of supernatural witchcraft, wrathful weather, and bloody battles. Remember, the "fair is foul and foul is fair" line as it will be important to note the characters that reflect the witches' diction.
Meanwhile, we finished up the psychoanalysis power point and discussed background of Macbeth (barbarian Scotland, English and Scottish succession, and just/tyrannical kings).
On Monday, we will do more psychoanalysis (featuring Sylvia Plath's "Daddy" -- you may want to check out the biography of Plath in order to have a better understanding of her speaker), multiple choice shenanigans, and the next scenes of the Scottish play.
Happy Halloween, my children of the night. I'll be playing my usual role of Laurie Strode.
