Macbeth: Final Draft

Macbeth by William Shakespeare is a play about how a few people will do anything for power. Though the path they choose to pursue may have been more inhumane, they became narrow-minded to the thought of ruling Ireland.

In the beginning of the play, 3 witches told a prophecy of Macbeth becoming King. Since a few events turned out to be true for Macbeth, he felt that the witches prophecy would be true. With this, Macbeth wrote a letter his wife. Lady Macbeth seemed to be the "brain of the operation" or the person in charge of how they would fore fill the prophecy. In the beginning of the story, Macbeth writes a letter to his wife, Lady Macbeth, about the witches prophecy for him. Then, Lady Macbeth thinks to herself of how one would act toward this situation. This soliloquy she had, stated of how one would not do bad but would for another reason.

Toward the middle of the play, things started to sorta get out of control and some mentalities start to change when "things start to get real".  Macbeth and Lady Macbeth start to change personalities. Macbeth starts to care more about the power and becoming King but Lady Macbeth starts to worry more because of how out of control and demented Macbeth was becoming. As more and more people were being killed, killing more people seemed to be the only solution for Macbeth. This worried Lady Macbeth because killing so much people wasn't how she imagined the plan. But due Macbeth's sudden change of personality, Lady Macbeth's personality changed as well.


Though things didn't turn out as planned, Macbeth felt that becoming king was in his grasp. Killing off nearly everyone next to the throne or people that he felt knew he was the caused of all the murders. This lead to Macduff killing Macbeth. Macbeth's personality became more selfish and ignorant toward the end due to the witches prophecy and sayings. With the witch confessing that Macbeth could not die from a man born from a women, this made Macbeth's feel invisible. But his ego is what got him killed. With the confidence of him not being able to die, he felt he could take on Macduff and defeat his army. Only leading Macbeth to his death.

In conclusion, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth could have succeed but due to their narrow mind in the situations that they were put in, they prepared for the best instead of the worst. Causing them to be blinded of the bad that could happen.

Poam Final draft

A curious little mind 

Raised with one parent

Protected and guarded 

With a "little" disability

Waiting for the wonders of the ocean to appear 

Hey dad! Maybe when I'm at school, i'll see a shark.

I highly doubt that.

Have you ever met a shark before?

No, and i don't plan to."

A curious little mind 

who's heart's bigger than the ocean
his mind lives off of imagination
he is an innovator

Fear and curiosity took him away
He found himself in a new home
"I wanna go home. Does anybody know where my dad is?
Honey, your fathers probably back at the pet store"

Lonely and parentless
Friends are the closest thing to family
"From this point on you'll be known as sharkbait"
Known as something else
He discovers a newer him

Mid-quarter essay

The poem "Market Forecast" is about the english language being compared to the stock market. From "wisdom, grace, and beauty can be had three for a dollar, as they head for a recession." or "Beware of cheap imitations sold by the side of the road."

With todays technology rapidly improving in a short amount of time, our environment suffers from our mistakes. The line "The ongoing search for a fresh metaphor has caused concern among environmental activist", talks about how our community is always looking for the newest and freshest inventions but to the environment activist, this is a bad thing due to how damaged and polluted our world is. Relating to the poem, this creates an unbalanced habit for not only the animals and plants living in these areas but also the humans that surround these parts. With our oceans and forests being drowned by debris and pollution, expanding our range of technology would only make it worse.

    "Adjectives continue their downward spiral, with adverbs likely to follow." A quote that really gives of the affect relating the english language to the stock market. With sales continuing decrease, the english language is slowly fading as well. The Romantic era was time where society had more freedom. Freedom leads to new ideas and when trends start to arise, the past culture starts to decay. 

Not only is it easy to make money but falling in love has a completely different definition. "Diaphanous, filigree, pearlescent, and love are now available at wholesale prices". This quote from the poem relates to people spoiling someone just for them to "fall in love" with them. Showing the desperateness of people wanting affection from one another. Instead of being yourself and naturally falling for someone, they use money and jewelry to bribe or favor them. 

The Market Forecast comes off as a poem with many different aspects applying to something that seems to relate to a certain topic but really The Market Forecast is simply an allusion. At first may seem confusing but if you relate certain key words, pieces of this puzzle could easily be shown by looking at the picture as a whole.

Critical Stance:2

The term dehumanization is described when someone doesn't show compassion to one another. In this section of the book "Night" the prisoners were so desperate for food and sleep that they would run over each other for that one loaf of bread. They would sleep on each other because they were so tired. The germans turned everyday human beings to animals. These events that were witnessed my 15 year old, Eliezer, changed his mindset toward the world and religion. He couldn't believe what he saw changing how he thought about god. He couldn't believe that god would let such cruel things happen to his own creation.

Critical Stance:

Wiesel set up that contrast because the germans limited the jews power. The germans took away the jews freedom. They limited their power by taking away anything of value. Without any type of freedom or way to over take the germans, the jews were helpless.

The Holocaust

The Holocaust was a destruction or slaughter on mass amounts of people. The holocaust started on January 30th, 1933 then stopped in May 8, 1945. In the year of 1933 the european jews at that time were many in number. Until the Nazi Germans persecuted and murdered millions of the their kind. By 1945 the nazi germans killed about two-thirds of the jews as part of the Final Solution. The final solution was a plan the germans used to kill the jews.
