Throughout the past three weeks, our class analyzed the first act of Shakespeare's MacBeth. The play is very interesting, following a warrior and thane to the king of Scotland as he is faced with the decision of murder as a means of fulfilling a given destiny to the right to ascend as king. Following the reading, we were assigned a task of summarizing the first act to be 10% of the original size while maintaining the overall themes, plot, and literary dynamics of the piece. An update will be made on this post in the next following days with the link containing the summary created by my group. As a way of tying the last few weeks together, we were given a project in which we studied and presented a poster that was based on any assassination in history. I decided to base my project on the death of King Duncan on which Macbeth was inspired by. King Duncan fell to his death in the middle of an invasion that he led against the land of Macbeth, with details on his death being clouded and unknown. I feel that the assignments given throughout these past weeks blend well with each other and work greatly in enforcing the overall theme that was established.
