Response Diary 2 The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas The ones who walk away from omelas is a short story from the wind’s twelve quarters written by Ursula le Guin. It is a story about the utopian society which has a very strange and weird/disgusting condition for being able to have every happiness in the city.

Praised as the quintessential play of 17th century theatre, William Shakespeare’s 1606 contemporary masterpiece, The Tragedy of Macbeth, provides an insight into the hierarchal structure of 17th century England and the ramifications of any break in the Jacobean imposed, ‘great chain of being.’ Set in medieval Scotland, the play Macbeth draws upon both the true story of Mac Bethad and dogmas of the audience to portray “the damaging physical and psychological effects of political ambition in those…

Within Macbeth, there are many possible valid approaches to reading the play, however, the Marxist approach incorporates a part of the social order that others do not.
