This revision set will allow you to fulfil your potential and get the grade you deserve.

In this file, there is:

• a summary of each scene to allow you to fully understand the plot of Macbeth without needing to reread the entire play
• concise, but very high level notes, which include analysis of word class, connotations, metaphors, imagery, motifs, semantic fields, as well as bonus content which allows high-level students to become more secure in essay writing, and to ease the transition into A Level English Literature
• notes on the historical context of the play, Shakespeare, the genre of tragedy, and religious tensions at the turn of the 17th century.
