CONTEXT/TIP: The serpent/flower quote may be an intentional reference to the Gunpowder Plot. The king’s escape from being blown up (no thanks to Guy Fawkes) was commemorated by a medal, which displayed *a snake concealed by flowers* . The Macbeth quote “look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under it” is a direct reference to the Gunpowder Plot, consequently foreshadowing their regicide attempt. This quote would have been understood well by the audience as Lady Macbeth echoes the image of the medal, and portrays how the two events mirror each other (both are regicide attempts).

this video made me breeze through english thank you man

[@luke2793]

what L9 ideas could you talk about if the question is on appearance vs reality?

[@relaxingrain6411]

You could use “fair is foul and foul is fair” and basically say that this blurs the boundaries between good and evil, presenting the idea that what may be seen as good could really be evil in disguise. Then u could further expand this point by using the “Look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under’t”

[@IDidNotCommitWarCrimesInSerbia]

You could talk about the role of a host and hostess as Duncan calls Lady Macbeth the "honoured hostess", while she is actively trying to kill him. A host in that time was supposed to protect their guest whereas they plot to murder Duncan and how this presents Lady Macbeth as the 4th witch or "murdering ministers". This implies that duplicity could be anywhere and Shakespeare might be trying to warn the nobility of King James, which some believed that they had more of a right to be the King of England not this random bloke from Scotland. Shakespeare was warning then about the consequences of distributing the Great Chain of Beings and also warning King James I to not trust anyone full, with this you can link to themes of Kingship and Nobility.

Hi sir, thank you so much for these videos they are amazing! I was just wondering how many techniques should you include per paragraph because In a previous video you said to only use them were relevant but my teacher has been ramming them down our throats for the past 2 years (really High level techniques as well) and I'm kind of confused

[@whosminou]

hi, not mr salles lol, but I recommend using techniques that are relevant to the quote or reference you are making. don't try and manipulate/force the technique used in the quote if it's not there. You get marks on how good and judicious your analysis is of the QUOTE/TEXT, not how many techniques you can cram into one paragraph 😂

THANK YOU! Brilliant video again!! :D I really like your interpretation of 'dear wife' being Macbeth truly loves Lady Macbeth and wants to spare her from his fate; in school we did it as 'dear' being patronising and reflective of the patriarchal society - Macbeth is putting Lady Macbeth in her place and she is no longer his equal, signifying the distance that has grown between them. I like your interpretation better though, but if I talk about both (if it's relevant to the question of course!) then I'm adding layers of analysis and interpretations which is good! :)

Do we have to talk about language and structure for the English lit paper 1 AQA?

[@IDidNotCommitWarCrimesInSerbia]

I don't think so, like you could talk about it like for example A Christmas Carol where it has 5 Staves, just like in music and Dickens does this so that his reader will read the Novella aloud near a fireplace just like in ancient traditions of sharing ghost stories at Christmas and this helps to spread Dickens message about (INSERT QUESTION) instead of only one person and especially young children as it is easier teach them about morality. You could also link this to the fact that there were only 6000 printed copies of an ACC and they cost 5 shillings each.

[@whosminou]

if you've run out of time, you'll be fine as long as it's a substantial amount, but pick at least 2-4 quotes from it and a reference to ensure you've covered the extract. mr salles suggests writing from the beginning of the play to the end (with the extract wherever it is in the play, in between) to flesh out the full structure of the play. you can sneak the extract somewhere within your essay.
