Riassunto

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,

To the last syllable of recorded time;

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

 

Shakespeare’s tragic exploration of evil and its effect has enthralled readers and theatregoers alike for centuries. Mixing the ethereal with realism, the uncanny with the disturbed and black magic with blackguardedly wicked characters, The Scottish Play has rarely been off our stages since its first performance more than four hundred years ago, and will remain thus for the foreseeable future. The tale of an overambitious Thane in eleventh-century Scotland who murders his way to the top following a dubious prophecy, the play then tracks his descent into tyranny and madness.

 

Following Macbeth’s inclusion upon the new specification for GCSE English Literature, first examinations in June 2017, CBy Publishing hereby publishes the full, unabridged First Folio text, complete with a selection of thematic paintings relating to the play, wide, annotation friendly margins and a plethora of background material to aid student analysis.
