Macbeth is a distinguished warrior hero, who over the course of the play, transforms into a brutal, murderous villain and pays an extraordinary price for committing an evil act. A man consumed with ambition and self-doubt, Macbeth is one of Shakespeare's most vital meditations on the dangerous corners of the human imagination. Award-winning writer and beloved professor Harold Bloom investigates Macbeth's interiority and unthinkable actions with razor-sharp insight, agility, and compassion. He also explores his own personal relationship to the character: Just as we encounter one Anna Karenina or Jay Gatsby when we are seventeen and another when we are forty, Bloom writes about his shifting understanding--over the course of his own lifetime--of this endlessly compelling figure, so that the book also becomes an extraordinarily moving argument for literature as a path to and a measure of our humanity. Bloom is mesmerizing in the classroom, wrestling with the often tragic choices Shakespeare's characters make. He delivers that kind of exhilarating intimacy and clarity in Macbeth, the final book in an essential series. 000859212 60010 $$aShakespeare, William,$$d1564-1616.$$tMacbeth. 000859212 60010 $$aShakespeare, William,$$d1564-1616$$xCharacters. 000859212 60000 $$aMacbeth,$$cKing of Scotland,$$dactive 11th century$$xIn literature. 000859212 650_0 $$aKings and rulers in literature. 000859212 650_0 $$aRegicides in literature. 000859212 651_0 $$aScotland$$xIn literature. 000859212 8001_ $$aBloom, Harold.$$tShakespeare's personalities. 000859212 85200 $$bgen$$hPR2823$$i.B56$$i2019 000859212 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:859212$$pGLOBAL_SET 000859212 980__ $$aBIB 000859212 980__ $$aBOOK
