Act I Scene Macbeth Feels
633 words
In Macbeth's soliloquy in Act I, scene 7, Macbeth
hesitates because of both pragmatic and moral
causes; although, his moral scruples seem to
overpower the pragmatic arguments. Macbeth is torn
between these two issues, and his unique way of
deciphering his problems is exhibited in this
scene. Macbeth feels that if he were to
assassinate the king, Duncan, that he better do it
soon. The first line of Act I, scene 7 begins
with, If it were done when tis done, then there
well; It were done quickly. S...

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark, (1.

precision behind his words. Various dialogue

summarized events that took place. Horatio proved
this point when he stated Of carnal, bloody, and
unnatural acts, of accidental judgments, casual
slaughters, of deaths put on by cunning and [for]
cause, and in this upshot, purposes mistook full

Macbeth Macbeth Lady Macbeth

What are the main sources of evil in the play? How
does Shakespeare get this across to an audience?
The witches are the main evil in the play even
though they only appear 4 times in the story, but
each time they appear they always create an evil
atmosphere. When I say 'the main evil in the play'
this is my opinion, I feel they are the main
because they are pure evil incarnate and they are
what trigger the whole thing of. I feel when
Shakespeare wrote Macbeth he meant it to be on two

attitudes are still relevant and fairly accurate
representations of Australian attitudes in the

Beginning Of The Play Three Men
1,967 words
The heroes in the Odyssey and Hamlet both use
deception to achieve revenge against those who
have wronged them. However, the manner in which
they go about these deceptions is very different
between the two. It must also be noted that
although revenge is clearly an overwhelming
influence in the two stories it is not viewed in a
truly positive light in either. In Hamlet the
young prince uses deception as a means to bring
about his revenge for his fathers murder. The form
of his deception is madnes...

fears, and even people) can be put to rest, its
like semi-death, but there in the morning there is
