SWISHER, BOOK EDITOR DAVID L. BENDER, PUBLISHER BRUNO LEONE, EXECUTIVE
EDITOR BONNIE SZUMSKI, SERIES EDITOR *» I GREENHAVEN PRESS, INC., SAN
DIEGO, CA CONTENTS FOREWORD 9 INTRODUCTION 11 WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: A
BIOGRAPHY 12 CHAPTER 1: MACBETH: HISTORICAL CONTEXT 1. THE HISTORICAL
CONTEXT OF MACBETH BY GARRY WILLS 30 STAGING MACBETH PRESENTS PROBLEMS
TO ACTORS AND DIRECTORS BECAUSE ACTS 1, 2, AND 3 ARE MORE DRAMATIC AND
POWERFUL THAN ACTS 4 AND 5. MISSING IS THE AWARENESS OF THE CONNEC- TION
OF THE PLAY TO THE LANGUAGE AND EVENTS OF THE GUNPOW- DER PLOT OF 1605.
2. MACBETKS DRAMATIC ALLUSIONS BYKA. FOAKES 38 MACBETH IS A COMPLEX PLAY
THAT DEFIES EASY CLASSIFICATION. IT GOES BEYOND EARLIER KINDS OF
TRAGEDY; ITS PROTAGONIST IS MORE THAN SIMPLY AN AMBITIOUS MAN; AND IT
ADDS SIGNIFICANCE TO JAMES I S HISTORY AND INTERESTS. 5. LITERARY AND
POLITICAL REFERENCES IN MACBETH BY MAYNARD MACK 45 IN ITS COMPLEXITY,
MACBETH REFLECTS FORMS BESIDES TRAGEDY. IT RESEMBLES THE MYTHICAL TALES
OF SATAN AND ADAM AND EVE AND THE FOLKTALE ON WHICH FAUST IS BASED; IN
ITS FINAL SCENES, IT CREATES AN ALLEGORY OF DEATH. 4. A RENAISSANCE
PERSPECTIVE OF THE WITCHES BY FRANCIS FERGUSSON 58 IN SHAKESPEARE S TIME
WITCHES WERE PERCEIVED AS OLD WOMEN, CRAZED AND POSSESSED BY MINOR EVIL
SPIRITS CALLED FAMILIARS. LACKING THE POWER TO DESTROY MACBETH
THEMSELVES, THEY USE VISIONS AND VERBAL TRICKS TO INDUCE MACBETH TO
DESTROY HIMSELF. CHAPTER 2: PRODUCING MACBETH ONSTAGE 1. THREE STAGE
PRODUCTIONS OF MACBETH BY DAVID A. MALE 6 6 A COMPARISON OF THREE
BRITISH PRODUCTIONS OF MACBETH ILLUS- TRATES THAT THE DIRECTOR S
GOVERNING IDEA, SUGGESTED BY DE- TAILS OF THE SET, COSTUMES, AND ACTING,
YIELDS THREE DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS OF THE PLAY. 2. MACBETH S RICH
VISUAL EFFECTS BYD.J. PALMER 75 THE LANGUAGE AND IMAGERY OF MACBETH
OFFER THE AUDIENCE BOTH AN IMAGINARY AND A VISUAL SPECTACLE. EVENTS
RECUR AND CONTRAST, CHARACTERS ENTER AND EXIT DRAMATICALLY, AND UN- SEEN
EVENTS HAVE POWERFUL SIGNIFICANCE. 3. THE ROLE OF THE PORTER BY MARVIN
ROSENBERG 83 THE PORTER ENTERTAINS THE AUDIENCE WITH CRUDE ACTIONS AND
HUMOROUS MONOLOGUE. IMAGINING HIMSELF AS HELL S GATE- KEEPER, HE
REINFORCES THE PLAY S THEMES AND CREATES TIME FOR MACBETH AND LADY
MACBETH TO PREPARE THEMSELVES AFTER THE MURDER. CHAPTER 3: SHAKESPEARE S
TECHNIQUE AND CRAFT 1. MACBETH: AN ATYPICAL TRAGEDY BY CLIFFORD DAVIDSON
91 UNLIKE AN ARISTOTELIAN PROTAGONIST, MACBETH LOSES THE AUDI- ENCE S
PITY AND GOODWILL. HIS HYPOCRISY IS HIS SIN, WHICH HARDENS HIM AND MAKES
HIM A TYRANT GUILTY OF MONSTROUS ACTS. AT THE END THE AUDIENCE JUDGES
HIM. 2. POETRY OF EVIL BY L.C. KNIGHTS 98 WRITTEN IN COMPACT, POETIC
LANGUAGE, MACBETH IS A STUDY OF EVIL WHICH IS EXPRESSED IN THREE
INTERRELATED THEMES: REVERSAL OF VALUES, REVERSAL OF THE NATURAL ORDER,
AND CONFUSION RESULT- ING FROM DECEITFUL APPEARANCES. SHAKESPEARE STATES
THEM IM- MEDIATELY IN ACT 1 AND RECAPITULATES THEM AT THE END. 3.
SHAKESPEARE S IMAGERY HEIGHTENS EMOTIONS BY CAROLINE F.E. SPURGEON 107
WOVEN SUBTLY INTO NEARLY EVERY LINE, MACBETH S IMAGES COR- RESPOND TO
THE THEMES OF THE PLAY AND INTENSIFY ITS EMOTIONAL EFFECTS. THEY
DIMINISH MACBETH S STATURE, CREATE SOUND, AND SWELL EVIL TO FRIGHTENING
PROPORTIONS. CHAPTER 4: THEMES AND STRUCTURE IN MACBETH 1. THE UNIVERSE
AND TIME IN MACBETH BY MARK VAN DOREN 118 MACBETH AND LADY MACBETH EXIST
IN A WORLD DISTORTED BY BOTH TIME AND SPACE. INWARDLY AND OUTWARDLY IT
IS A STRANGE, DARK, AND SHIFTING PLACE FILLED WITH MURK AND NOISE. 2.
MACBETH: A STUDY IN FEAR BY LILY B. CAMPBELL 126 FALSE COURAGE AND THE
PASSION OF AMBITION MOVE MACBETH AND LADY MACBETH TO KILL BUNCAN, AND
FEAR BRINGS THEM TO DESTRUCTION. BECAUSE THEY HAVE DIFFERENT
PSYCHOLOGICAL MAKEUPS, THEY DIFFER INITIALLY IN THEIR COURAGE TO KILL
AND WELL IN WAYS THEY FEAR THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR GOTTINGEN J 3.
LIFE-ENHANCING THEMES IN MACBETH BY G. WILSON KNIGHT 156 THE HORRORS OF
DESTRUCTION AND EVIL COME INTO SHARPER FOCUS WHEN THEY ARE JUXTAPOSED
WITH LIFE AND GOODNESS. FOR EXAM- PLE, MACBETH IS AN HONORABLE MAN
TURNED MURDERER WHILE DUNCAN IS A MAGNIFICENT KING ONLY TO BE BRUTALLY
MURDERED. 4. THE SUPERNATURAL HIGHLIGHTS THE PLAY S THEMES BY ROY WALKER
146 IN THE OPENING SCENES OF MACBETH, THE THREE WITCHES SPEAK
AMBIGUOUSLY OF THEIR PAST PRACTICE OF THE BLACK ARTS AND PREDICT A
MEETING WITH MACBETH. ON MACBETH S AND BAN- QUO S ARRIVAL, THE WITCHES
MAKE CONTRADICTORY PROPHECIES TO BOTH MEN, BUT ONLY MACBETH IS DRAWN TO
THE WITCHES AND THEIR WORDS. 5. MACBETH IS ALL MIDDLE BY STEPHEN BOOTH
155 BECAUSE EVERY ELEMENT IN THE PLAY, INCLUDING TIME, EVENTS, AND
CHARACTERS, LACKS CLEAR BEGINNINGS, ENDINGS, AND LOGICAL LIMITS, MACBETH
SEEMS ALWAYS TO BE CYCLING IN THE MIDDLE. THE AUDIENCE IDENTIFIES WITH
MACBETH AND, IN THE IMAGINA- TIVE LIMITLESSNESS OF THE PLAY, EXPERIENCES
IT AS TERRIFYING. 6. THE FACETS OF MACBETH S IMAGINATION BY GARETH LLOYD
EVANS 163 MACBETH S ACTIVE AND VIVID IMAGINATION IS A CURSED FORCE BE-
HIND MURDEROUS PLANS, A SOURCE OF GUILT AND ISOLATION, AND A CAUSE OF
HIS ALIENATION FROM LADY MACBETH. BECAUSE MAC- BETH IS ABLE TO ACT,
HOWEVER, HE EXERTS SOME CONTROL OVER HIS IMAGINATION. CHRONOLOGY 170 FOR
