This 2nd series of flashcards, one from each act, evidence ways in which Shakespeare has highlighted Macbeth as a tragic hero.
A tragedy play in Shakespeare’s time begins with qualities in a hero that are admired. The hero is loved and there is an element of celebrity and role model.
Then a weakness is highlighted and manipulated to bring down the hero with tragic consequences. However, each quote also has relevance to other themes.
The purpose of memorising the quotes is to aid a deeper knowledge of the play so that when answering a question the student can move around the play with ease.
The quote is on the left-hand side of each card.
Prompts for discussion are on the right-hand side of each card.
The quotes also have relevance in the discussion of other themes, especially questions that explore the characterisation of Macbeth and plot development.
Other sets available:
Set 1 – The Supernatural
Set 3 – Guilt/Anxiety
Set 4 – Ambition
Set 5 – Characterisation
Set 6 – Plot Development/movement

This Flashcards Bundle evidences ways in which Shakespeare has highlighted Macbeth as a Tragic Hero (set 1), used the supernatural to develop characters (set 2) and intorduce the theme of guilt and anxiety in the play. (Set 3) **Set 1** - The quotes, one from each act evidence ways in which Shakespeare has used the supernatural to develop characters and also to move forward the plot. However, each quote also has relevance to other themes. **Set 2** - The quotes, one from each act, evidence ways in which Shakespeare has highlighted Macbeth as a tragic hero. A tragedy play in Shakespeare’s time begins with qualities in a hero that are admired. The hero is loved and there is an element of celebrity and role model. Then a weakness is highlighted and manipulated to bring down the hero with tragic consequences. **Set 3** - The quotes, one from each act, evidence ways in which Shakespeare has highlighted the theme of guilt and anxiety in the play. It is interesting in Macbeth that Macbeth as a military general had no difficulty in applying violent acts to kill his enemy but could not handle emotionally or mentally the murder of King Duncan. This brings into play questions of right and wrong and integrity and honour.
