Macbeth
Notebook
Macbeth (c. 1606) is Shakespeare's darkest and most concentrated tragedy. Spurred by the prophecy of three witches and the goading of his wife, the Scottish general Macbeth murders King Duncan and seizes the throne, only to be consumed by guilt, paranoia, and a tyrant's bloody spiral. A profound study of ambition, conscience, and the corruption of the soul, it gives the language some of its most haunting lines on murder and remorse.
