The Early Modern Mindset

(0)
A lesson/lecture covering the socioeconomic conditions of the early modern - English renaissance - era. This can be taught as a masterclass to the Most Able at Year 11, or as general contextual background for an early modern A Level text. The focus in the second part is Macbeth but having personally taught many early modern texts, I know it can easily be adapted to all exam boards for GCSE and A Level.
