About this resource
Macbeth follows a celebrated soldier whose desire for the crown turns loyalty into violence. Prophecy offers possibilities, but the decisions made by Macbeth and Lady Macbeth give those possibilities their force. Read the play as a sequence of choices: notice how public confidence and private fear increasingly pull apart. This guide helps you move from retelling events to explaining how imagery, dramatic irony and changes in speech shape an audience’s judgement.
