	Macbeth
		That same Macbeth, who once as a warrior could spurn at death, now that he dreads the prospect of the life to come, clings with growing anxiety to his earthly existence the more miserable it becomes, and pitilessly removes out of the way whatever to his dark and suspicious mind seems to threaten danger.
		Lady Macbeth, who of all the human participators in the king's murder is the most guilty, is thrown by the terrors of her conscience into a state of incurable bodily and mental disease; she dies, unlamented even by her husband.
		Macbeth is still found worthy to die the death of a hero on the field of battle.

		Macbeth forgets to return the daggers to the king's guards, so his wife does it for him, bloodying herself too, as Macbeth loses himself in insanity.

		This Macbeth was a near kinsman to the king, and in great esteem at court for his valour and conduct in the wars; an example of which he had lately given, in defeating a rebel army assisted by the troops of Norway in terrible numbers.
		Macbeth first addressed them, when they, seemingly offended, laid each one her choppy finger upon her skinny lips, in token of silence; and the first of them saluted Macbeth with the title of thane of Glamis.
		Macbeth, stung with rage, set upon the castle of Macduff, and put his wife and children, whom the thane had left behind, to the sword, and extended the slaughter to all who claimed the least relationship to Macduff.

	'Macbeth' Russian style - Entertainment - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Loosely based on Shakespeare's "Macbeth," the opera's libretto weaves the sordid tale of Katerina, a bored and desperately unhappy farm wife married to a wimp (Zinovy) and continually harassed by her bitter and violent father-in-law, Boris.
		From bloody floggings to a haphazardly buried corpse ripening in the root cellar, this is rough stuff, punctuated by flly comedic interludes.
		"Lady Macbeth" is also intensely Russian, a worthy successor to Modest Mussorgsky's "Boris Godunov." From its vigorous male and mixed peasant choruses to its Wagnerian demands on the singers to its heroically symphonic score, it is one of the 20th century's artistic landmarks.

	An Introduction to Shakespeare's Macbeth (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Macbeth has, in a sense, tried to seize control of the script of his life, to write it in accordance with his desires, in the clear knowledge that that's probably going to be disastrous.
		Macbeth's decision to move beyond that morally significant community has failed, his attempt to impose a new order based on murder has failed, but his attempt has exposed the falseness of any complacent assumptions about the effectiveness of traditional order to hold evil easily at bay.
		Macbeth is a work of art, and if it is effective, it does its work through our emotional responses to the poetry (and the action in a performance), not by making some closely argued case about the nature of the world.

	EDSITEment - Lesson Plan
		Note: This lesson may be taught either as a stand-alone lesson or as a prequel to the complementary EDSITEment lesson, "Shakespeare's Macbeth: Fear and the Motives of Evil".
		Shakespeare's use of historical sources in Macbeth is shaped by contemporary concerns about succession and legitimacy, fear of rebellion, and the playwright's deep horror of the crime of killing a king.
		Ask students questions about whether or not they think that Macbeth actually sees a ghost, or whether the ghost is just a metaphor for something that is inside him--like the "dagger of the mind" referred to in the quote at the top of this lesson plan (2.1.36-39).

	Macbeth Summary & Essays - William Shakespeare
		On the level of human evil, Shakespeare's Scottish tragedy is about Macbeth's bloody rise to power, including the murder of the Scottish king, Duncan, and the guilt-ridden pathology of evil deeds generating still more evil deeds.
		The current trend of critical opinion is toward an upward reevaluation of Lady Macbeth, who is said to be rehumanized by her insanity and her suicide.
