How can you love yourself when your very body is what puts you in danger? How can as women own feminist politics and find beauty from within? These are all the questions that came to my mind as I read this week's articles and considered the lecture given by Dr. Garcia. Particularly in relation to the article "Clothes and Daggers" by Rafia Zacharia I…

The Call of the Daggers The Tragedy of Macbeth is known as Shakespeare’s most bloody play. The name should speak for itself that it is not all butterflies and rainbows. Shakespeare writes Macbeth in such a dark murderous way, and he alludes to the theme of death and evil from the beginning. Act two, scene one is the written effect to the glass shattering of hope the audience has for Macbeth to stay a good and moral person. The dagger soliloquy Macbeth speaks before the murder of King Duncan…

In Shakespeare's play Macbeth Macbeth commits many heinous crimes after he was given information from the witches. Although some may say that in Shakespeare's play Macbeth, Macbeth is not to blame for his cruel actions this is false, Macbeth was given information on the beach, he saw a floating dagger, and went to see the witches,…

The dagger must remain invisible to the audience to emphasize evil’s manipulation of rational thought because it adds to Macbeth’s portrayal as insane, to the tone of confusion, and to the idea of obscuring sight and feeling. Macbeth gradually loses his sanity as the murder and guilt overwhelm him; his brain becomes “heat-oppressed,” since it can no longer think clearly (2.1.51). When one uses apostrophe in such a way that one begins a conversation with an absent, inanimate object, insanity…
