This morning we looked at how Shakespeare uses a final moment of suspense in ALL of his tragedies. At the start of act 4, we have a fleeting moment where the audience thinks/hopes everything is going to work out. Of course, as this is a tragedy, we know that it can't end well...
I asked the class to write a page on what may be Macbeth's last hope. Many ideas generated...some good thoughts...
We also watched a wee bit of the Macbeth movie, before we left early for History Hysteria day.
