@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish Hi Mr Salles, quick question on your books on literature. I will be buying your GCSE books on: 1. Unseen poetry 2. Power and conflict 3. Macbeth 4. Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde 5. An inspector calls Question I have is: if I buy the above, would i need to buy your GCSE English Literature guide? Also you have 2 guides on Macbeth, one is a guide to Macbeth (published 2020) and one is a guide to writing essays on Macbeth (published 2024). Could you kindly advise me on what to do regarding the English literature book and the Macbeth guides? Do I need to buy them all? This is for my niece who will be sitting her GCSEs next year.

How do you do seven pages, is it that you write many paragraphs or write a lot per paragraph and how do you write that much in 45 mins(apart from writing speed) is it that you know everything before the exam or you're that guy who has alot of ideas in the exam
@Justarandominternetperson9 ай бұрын
@divineolabode1707 Firstly, to clarify, when I say 7 pages, I mean 7 sides. Secondly, to answer your question, I’m honestly both- I have a lot of ideas and I know a lot of knowledge from revision. I think I’m able to write a lot for a few reasons: - In terms of my paragraphs they tend to be really long- I add 3-5 quotes per paragraph, analysis and context in each paragraph. So each ‘paragraph” is around one to one and a half pages long. + introduction and conclusion. I make a whole plan as soon as I read the question for the text, spending 5-10 minutes planning means I don’t need to spend time thinking about quotes and ideas whilst writing. My plan consists of the main idea I want for each paragraph a few quotes and a link to context. (I tend to write as many quotes as possible on the text page which I may or may not use in my answer) planning really helps as all my ideas are already jotted down and all I have to do is re-write it but with more analysis and depth in my answer. -I’m a pretty fast writer -I enjoy English so I really like analysis and I don’t find it difficult

Blood is the currency that buys or maintains power. Warring is the lifeblood of the state. Killing in service of the state is legitimised and indeed glorified. But the image of rebellion shows the state already turned against itself. In the bloodlust and euphoria post battle, and within the context of a warring society - already at war with itself - it is an easier leap to take throne for yourself (and wife) especially when it has already been supernaturally prophesied.

@ollietaylor24177 ай бұрын
Thank you for this brilliant video, Mr Salles, you're actually making Macbeth interesting to revise for :D Just a question about the river of blood metaphor at point 27:23: Would Macbeth going back, stopping killing, and being left with the memories of all those he has already killed be bad because he would eventually be haunted by guilt from those memories? (Because he would be taking time away from killing and would inevitably have time to reflect on the killing memories, leading to guilt). Earlier on in the scene, the guilt from killing lead to him seeing Banquo's ghost outed himself as the Duncan killer to the nobles, leading to them becoming suspicious and therefore his inability to kill as much and pursue his love for killing without the threat of being found out and overthrown - if that happend he wouldn't be able to fight and kill anymore. By not being consumed by guilt, do you think Macbeth thinks news of his killings is less likely to slip out again, like it did when he was under the influence of guilt - linking again to the psychological understanding of himself. Or do you think it's as simple as Macbeth being hungry for more memories of killing, seeking the thrills and highs he gets off it? Basically would you say it's strategic to move to carry on through the river in order to avoid guilt and in turn being more likely to keep doing what he loves, or rather an instinctual desire to pursue his bloodlust? (Sorry if this is a complete late night revision waffle session 😅)

Macbeth does eventually overcome his hamartia (somewhat) when he absolutely refuses to kill Duncan - ‘We will proceed no further in this business.’ Until Lady Macbeth changes his mind in 45 lines, and he says ‘I am settled.’ Unless Macbeth needed that extra push (Lady Macbeth’s ambition) and deliberately made it seem as though he wasn’t going to kill Duncan, in order to make her more certain and stirred up about killing the king, and pulling himself further into the deed of regicide. Perhaps he knew from the moment the prophecy was said that he would kill Duncan, and only needed the extra shove from Lady Macbeth in order to do so, so he acts like he won’t kill Duncan. Maybe he understands her and himself so well psychologically that he knows he needs to also stir her up even more. Or not. I hope that made sense.

@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish Thanks for the response. I’ve thought about it and disagree with what I said earlier- there’s not enough evidence to show that Macbeth went out of his way to purposefully evoke a reaction from Lady Macbeth at his change in mind about killing Duncan. On another note, could I argue that the scene with Banquo’s ghost whilst they are eating is symbolic of The Last Supper? The religious imagery in the play is endless already, but even at that time Macbeth asks for wine - and at the Last supper Jesus says his wine is his blood, so drink it and a part of Jesus will be in you. Jesus is betrayed at the last supper like Banquo and Duncan are, by someone they thought they could trust, eventually leading to their deaths (Jesus being killed on the cross as well) . And Jesus, who is said to be God in human form. It solidifies how Macbeth’s betrayal is such an extreme act against God, as well as his bloodlust that is prevalent even during a dinner (him asking for wine, aka blood, perhaps thinking he can still be a part of God because of Jesus’ teachings, but I’m not too sure on that one). Maybe the candle light that you talked about ‘out, out brief candle’ shows how Macbeth has finally accepted he can’t be apart of God and is condemned to hell, especially after worshipping Lady Macbeth like you said, which would be a major sin as Lady Macbeth is obviously not God. Sorry if this didn’t make sense!

I was wondering if anyone could clarify something for me. I've found this interpretation really interesting, however I don't understand what it means when Macbeth says ‘We will proceed no further in this business.’ If he is psychologically aware of Lady Macbeth's response and hoping that she will take care of the practicalities so that he can commit regicide, why does he almost decide against this? And what would the significance be of Lady Macbeth emasculating and convincing him to continue with their plan? To me that's always come across as her manipulating her husband, so I would be interested on how this fits in with your interpretation. Thank you so much!

hey mr salles what do u think of this interpretation of macbeth reaction the prophecies -> In the quote " why do i yield to the suggestion whose horrid image doth unfix my hair" shakespeare shows the audience that the act of regicide is abnormal to macbeth and macbeth had a chance to do good as he knew that "chance may crown me without my stir" suggest that he would be able to become king through inaction rather than murder. However the reason why macbeth quickly runs to the suggestion of murder is because he became thane of cawdor by "unseaming" macdonwald "from the nave to the chops" .

Macbeth was scared to kill King Duncan in his sleep. Why? I mean his wife was comforting him, Lady Macbeth shouldnt be the one calming him down it should be the opposite as Macbeth knows her better than she does know him. You even said she didnt except to marry this type of man.

Hello Sir, I see there are different interpretations for Macbeth and Lady Macbeth's relationship as I had previously gathered that his greed for power had made much so that he eventually loses interest in his wife which makes him even more evil. So my question is does the way we see the characters really affect our answers and marks and if it does which interpretation is best to follow?
