Macbeth paragraph 5

Dramatic irony 

Example:This castle hath a pleasant seat. The air
Nimbly and sweetly recommends itself
Unto our gentle senses.

Explanation: in Macbeth dramatic irony is when King Duncan arrives at Macbeths castle. This is a important scene because King Duncan doesn't know that he will be murdered by Macbeth, but the audience knows."This castle hath a pleasant seat." This is a quote that King Duncan arrives a the castle and he thinks that this is such a lovely place when it will be the place of his death. At this point the audience is very exited. This is because it links into blood and gore which everybody likes, and King Duncan doesn't even know that he is the sacrifice of Macbeth trying to be in power.

Intro: dramatic irony is when the audience knows something that the character doesn't.

Conclusion: this is why dramatic irony is awesome to grab the audience attention.

Hook: Unto our gentle senses.

Macbeth paragraph 4

Nature imagery 

Example:Then comes my fit again.I had else been perfect,
Whole as the marble, founded as the rock,
As broad and general as the casing air.
But now I am cabined, cribbed, confined, bound in
To saucy doubts and fears.—But Banquo’s safe?

Explanation: some of nature imagery is death, animals and nature. When the murders say that fleance escaped "Most royal sir, Fleance is ’scaped." Macbeth freaks out because he knows that fleance is danger for him. "Macbeth says I had else been perfect, Whole as the marble, founded as the rock," which refers to him wanting them ( Banquo and fleance) dead. Nature imagery represent what he wanted fleance dead in juxtaposition to what actually happened, fleance escaped.

Thesis: nature is messed up in Macbeth because his life is going all wrong which leads to the theme power and corruption. 

Intro: In Macbeth nature imagery is very common because of the scenes that are set are nature imagery.

Conclusion: this shows that nature imagery is a important aspect of Macbeth.

Hook: Then comes my fit again

Macbeth paragraph 2

Blood and gore

Example:Ase my good lord safe in a ditch he bides....with twenty trenching gashes on his head

" with twenty trenching gashes on his head" is said when Macbeth sends out murderer to kill Banquo and this is what they said. This is blood and gore because twenty gashes on his head says that he is killed and there is a lot of blood on him. But also when he kills every body  he soul is corrupting which is the theme power and corruption.

Intro: in Macbeth lots of murder is happening which means that there is a lot of blood and gore.

Macbeth paragraph

(Theme) power and corruption 


Hook: But how of Cawdor? 

Intro: The theme of Macbeth is power and corruption. 

Explanation:This is because the story is about Macbeth gaining the power that the witches told him but by this he is leading to his own corruption by getting greedy and by this he is going crazy. The witches are in his head by telling his future and that it happened."the thane of Cawdor is alive, and he’s a rich and powerful man. And for me to be the king is completely impossible, just as it’s impossible for me to be thane of Cawdor." He is panicking about the future that the witches are telling him, but he very likes it.  When he becomes thane of Cawdor he is already thinking about the witches last word that he will be King,        This is why he is corrupting which means that the theme is corruption. 

Conclusion: When the Macbeth kills King and becomes king this when he gets power which means power so the theme must be power and corruption.
