Description:
"William Shakespeare's Macbeth (c. 1606) is a timeless tale of love, greed and power, which has given rise to heated debates around such issues as the representation of gender roles, political violence and the dramatisation of evil." "Taking the form of a sourcebook, this guide to Shakespeare's spectacular play offers: extensive introductory comments on the contexts, critical history and many interpretations of the text, from first performance to the present; annotated extracts from key contextual documents, reviews, critical works and text itself; cross-references between documents and sections of the guide, in order to suggest links between texts, contexts and criticism; and suggestions for further reading."--Jacket.
