Then she left and we did Things Fall Apart(a great book by Chinua Achebe) with the new teacher but yeah we weren't assessed on Macbeth. I felt so jealous of the Grade 11s who got to do it last year in my school.

There's also an Indian version of Macbeth called Maqbool. It's part of the Shakespeare Trilogy by this famous Indian director, Vikas Bharadwaj. He adapted Macbeth into Maqbool, Othello into Omkara, and Hamlet into Haider. Each story borrows themes from the original story, but places them in scenarios similar to Indians.

The more I read the old classics, the more I am realizing we might have progressed in so many areas, but the way we think and handle our emotions and instincts has stayed pretty much the same. We have similar problems as people living centuries before us and are asking ourselves the same existential questions that exist since a loooong time ago. Power changes people in different ways and if the person doesn't have a clear vision of what they want to achieve, it is easy to miss the right turn and just keep going deeper and deeper into darkness. :)

“Some of the most memorable passages in English literature” Me: “what, you egg [he stabs him]”

Another excellent line from Macbeth: "Blow, wind, come, wrack, At least we'll die with harness on our back." Another perspective on Macbeth would be to look on him as a brave and intelligent man, misled bt a conspiracy of circumstances and misguided by his own frailties. His courage and honesty are obvious in the beginning, obscured and tainted in the middle, and come out again in the end. This is clear from the two great soliloquies towards the ending: 1) My life has fallen into the sere and the yellow leaf And all that should accompany old age Such as love, honour, troops of friends These I must not look to have, but in their stead Mouth-honour, breath, curses not loud but deep Which the poor heart would fain deny, but dare not." 2) The famous soliloquy beginning : Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.... These two monologues show him to be an essentially decent man trapped in a dreadful situation.

English teacher, too. I agree with you, generally, except for your reluctance to put the consequences of Macbeth's life upon himself. If he was "trapped in a dreadful situation," it was one of his own making. Yes, he has heroic qualities, but his ambition overcame his conscience, his integrity, and his dedication to duty. He dishonored himself, the very definition of a tragic hero.

Recently read Macbeth in school. Although many of my classmates were probably disinterested, I couldn't get enough of the story and was completely sucked in. Although I probably wouldn't be able to understand the language without my teacher's help, I'm in love with it. I did, however, accidentally curse my school theater by absentmindedly saying to a friend, "You know, I love Macbeth." One of my favorite hobbies is reading lines of the play when I'm alone (I'm an amateur actor). Anyway, great video. I highly recommend Macbeth to anyone interested in literature!

I absolutely love the way he recites the prophecies and curses

Seriously love the animation. Love the narration as well. I have a copy of it, but never got around to reading it, cause I thought it would be boring, this completely changed my mind! Definitely reading it now!

I read the play back in high school. My favorite part of the lesson was when me, and two other boys with the same name, played the ghosts that the witches summon to tell Macbeth his future.

That was so cool . The animation, the sound effects and the voice are just wow

Wow how beautifully this video is created. Narration, animation, music ,sound , everything is perfect..

This animation is amazing!!!!!🙌 I wish there was a series like this.

Just one correction: the succession of James VI and I was not a surprise move. He was the next in the line of succession and (in the immediate aftermath of the war of the roses) the english nobles were very heavily invested in sticking to the rules as written. He had been receiving a pension from the english crown for years prior to Elizabeth Tudor's death to incentivise him not to do anything that would make his succession politically inconvenient. Everyone knew he was going to be king basically since Elizabeth got to menopause.

If you wish to poison a noble man, do not gift him a snake, gift him power.

Never read or seen the play, but it surely sounds interesting. I loved the animation!

I played the role of lady Macbeth in an annual function at school . It was such a great and unforgettable experience. Truly memorable ! 😍❤️

Hi!! Not sure if you'll se this but after the play had anything happend? I've heard the play was cursed and the only way to undo is by spinning and spitting over your shoulder than quoting a play of Shakespeare or saying a profanity.

This is an incredibly well done intro to Macbeth and exactly what my students need in this video centric world. I show it to my students every semester and it really piques their interest. Seriously - great job! Thank you so much for this video!

This is so beautifully portrayed. More like these videos please. Let the literature live and breathe into life. Thanks.

omg the art in this is so beautifu!!

Modern day Macbeth : House of Cards

Silvia's Animation on this piece is frigging amazing.

I love his voice so much. So calm

Absolutely beautiful. I got chills multiple times watching this and am wondering how it has taken me so long to read this since I am an English major after all.

"Lesson?" It didn't feel like a lesson! As entertaining as the play itself!

I can't stop watching these animations and the sound effects of the beginning.

Fantastic! Thank you Patreon and TED-Ed.

This and the riddles are my favorite series

Please continue the 'history on trial' series

The animation is out of this world. It’s so brilliant. Cheers to the creators!!

such high quality presentation is much appreciated

Probably my favorite play ever, besides the Crucible. It got to the point I was once able to read Macbeth's monologue off the top of my head, and was overjoyed when ig ot to be him during a reading of it in high school.
