Sobre este producto
  • Explore this annotated edition of Macbeth – with an introduction, historical background, footnotes and glossarySuitable for general readers and students alike, Macbeth is one of William Shakespeare's most enduring and well-known tragedies. The play revolves around the central character, Macbeth, a Scottish nobleman whose ambition and lust for power lead him down a treacherous path of murder and deceit. Crucially, the story focuses on the influence of his wife, Lady Macbeth, who is the catalyst for many of his poor decisions.Shakespeare wrote the play in 1606 during the reign of King James I, who was a staunch believer in the divine right of kings and a proponent of order and stability. It serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of regicide and the disruption of the natural order.Moreover, the play’s exploration of the supernatural aligns with the beliefs of Shakespeare’s time. The early 17th century was marked by a fascination with witchcraft and the occult, and King James I himself wrote an extensive treatise on witchcraft, Daemonologie, and had a personal interest in the subject.With a compelling list of characters and a plot filled with intrigue, there are few, if any, works of literature that so brilliantly explore the timeless themes of ambition, guilt, and the corrupting influence of power, all overlayed with a patina of supernatural mystery and malevolence.In this edition you will find:Footnotes to help with language interpretationGlossary at the end of the book – a quick guide to the understanding of Shakespearean wordsA concise introduction telling Shakespeare’s storyHistorical background of the playDiscussion of Macbeth’s intrinsic themes of power and the supernaturalBuy your copy of Macbeth by clicking on the ‘Buy Now’ button!
