FROM ACT II TO ACT IV. We are continuing with Shakespeare this week. Remember, you can access the play audio here; Also in this folder, I have included a graphic novel version of the text. It is true to the Elizabethan language, and the text is complete. You should continue annotating for the contradictory themes of good vs evil, free will vs fate, Macbeth as a good man persuaded to commit crimes vs an evil man who finally demonstrates his true nature, greed, desire for power.
