Description

Macbeth is one of the most iconic tragedies written by Shakespeare fraught with overpowering ambition and supernatural elements. The story unfolds when three witches prophesy that Macbeth will become the King of England, and ‘none of woman born’ can harm him. This prediction accompanied by Lady Macbeth’s persuasion drive Macbeth to murder Duncan, the reigning King of England.

Macbeth realizes the equivocation employed by the witches only later, when he learns that Macduff was ‘untimely ripp’d’ from his mother’s womb. A sordid tale of blood thirst and power, it is the witches’ manipulation which brings Macbeth closer to his hamartia.

This edition of The New Clarendon Shakespeare contains a detailed introduction to the play with some illustrations, discussions on the date, and sources of the play. It includes the text and touches upon the play’s history on the Elizabethan stage, with a commentary on the text and select literary criticism. The appendix includes extracts from Holinshed.

Illuminating Shakespeare explores the writer’s life and work through video essays, articles, and creative resources for every level from school to scholar. Visit the site at www.oup.com/shakespeare
