| Description: |
In this study of Macbeth in all his manifestations, the author begins by considering the historical context, then traces the origins and development of the myths surrounding him and the culmination of this process in Shakespeare's play and finally looks at the main places associated with him. |
| Synopsis: |
A study of Macbeth in all his manifestations: historical, mythological and dramatic. Drawing upon a wide range of material, it begins by contextualizing the historical Macbeth in the turbulent politics of 11th century Scotland, then traces the origins of the myths surrounding the king before culminating in the dramatic figure immortalized by Shakespeare. The real Macbeth is disentangled from the mythical creation. |
