A few weeks ago i had an exam on Macbeth about how Shakespeare presents the attitudes of Macbeth and Banquo towards the supernatural. My teacher, however, NEVER taught us about this (or anything really) and i have only discovered your account the day before it and managed to watch the ambition video. I got my essay back today and i got 25/34 (which i guess is a grade 7?) which did not make me happy at all. Everything I've ever learnt was from myself in a very short period of time. Mr Salles I'm counting on you now to make sure i get the grade i deserve 👍 Thank you for all the effort and time you put to ensure that pupils like me could get the best grade possible 🌹

You are very welcome, thanks for the encouragement. I will finish making this series before the exam, so you will know the play inside out. Kickstart your Macbeth revision by watching my video on all the themes of Macbeth.

@flakzyrl Hi, Right now I am doing the same question as yours. Tbh I'm kinda struggling with it. But I would like to ask how did you answer it, especially linking back the question to the writer and also how does the writer feels. Idk if all this make sense.

Hi Mr Salles, the quote "Win us with honest trifles to betray's" is 10 syllables but you have mentioned 11 syllables.

you made a really strong point about how the witches haven't directly controlled the weather or even Macbeth and they could not sink the ship. could you say they are not in full control of whatever they manipulate and reference back to parts where Macbeth wanted more answers but maybe they didn't have any because they have a lack of control ?

hi thank you for this video :) i have a question, at 14:58 you mention that it being up to chance makes it a gamble, versus fate, which is just waited out. however the following line implies that the chance at being king is something that will happen without the interference or action taken by macbeth, yet if macbeth doesn't kill duncan, the gamble doesn't occur, however if he does kill duncan, that would mean that it took macbeth taking action for it to occur and that it was not 'Without my stir.' i would really appreciate if you could clarify this point, thank you and have a great day!!

4:33 - why would Shakespeare portray Banquo as being influenced by the witches and encouraging Macbeth to commit regicide? if this was performed at court? what was the purpose?
@dagstudios99562 жыл бұрын
what actually happened irl was that macbeth and banquo both killed duncan together butttt king james is one of banquos descendants and Shakspeare couldn't say he came from a regicide so in the play banquo is not involved in the murder

@@MC-ps3ul this was the first play shakespeare had written for king james, so he wanted to impress him, so didnt include him in the murder plot, but as its the 1st play he wants to influence james as a monarch and help him, so he tries to express throughout the play that oppressed women breed chaos and evil men, so he is trying to implant the idea of equality into king james
