MACBETH: Complete Essay Plan With Grade 9 Analysis Fitting EVERY Question
FULL TRANSCRIPT
Welcome to another video. You've got Mr.
Everything English. And today we will be
doing something super important.
Everything
education tuition for maths, English,
and science. I did this last year with
four quotes for four paragraphs. And if
you go back and you look at the comment
section of those videos, guys, it really
helped those year 11s. So, this year
I've had a whole year to reflect. This
year, guys, I've tweaked the quotes and
I'm presenting you with six. We're going
to go over six quotes. I'm going to give
you the quote. I'm going to give you the
technique. I'm going to give you the
analysis, and I'm going to talk you
through how you make this quote fit lots
of different questions. Now, I'm going
to give you six different paragraphs on
the day of your exam. Remember guys, you
only need to make two of the six fit
because on the day of your exam, you are
aiming for four paragraphs. Two
paragraphs are going to be coming from
the extract that they give you on the
day. The other two will be coming from
these six. Now guys, we need these six
to be absolutely solid. Absolutely
solid. It is unforgivable. Absolutely
unforgivable. I sound like Mr. Berling.
But guys, honestly, we will not be
coming out of the exam on Monday and
none of you guys are going to message me
saying, "Sir, I just couldn't think of
any quotes. Sir, I just couldn't think
of any ideas. Sir, I only did one
paragraph." Guy, that is not happening.
Not on my watch. by hook or by crook on
that exam on Monday. All of us, every
single one of us is coming out of that
exam with four paragraphs done. Now, in
an ideal world, you want to do two
paragraphs from the extract, two
paragraphs from the whole text. But
listen to me very carefully. If you open
the
extract and what they give you on the
day is something that completely
completely throws you off. I'm talking
to the point where you can't understand
it at all. Then give me or try to give
me one from the extract and three from
the six that I'm going to give you. And
worst case scenario, worst case
scenario. And I don't want anyone
saying, "Oh, Mr. everything English said
do this. I'm saying worst case scenario.
If you can't engage with the extract at
all, you can't even give me a paragraph.
Then you know what guys, worst case
scenario, out of the six that I'm going
to give you, you write up four of
them. It is better to do that than to
leave your booklet
empty. What I am trying to tell you guys
is this. No matter what happens on
Monday, we are coming out of that exam
doing four full paragraphs. In an ideal
world, we are aiming for two paragraphs.
Extract two paragraphs from the whole
text. But if it comes down to it, you
have to change accordingly. But guys,
remember one thing. This is our GCSE
exam. Everything comes down to this. So
no matter what happens guys, Monday we
are doing four paragraphs. And now guys,
I will help you so much because I am now
going to go through the six quotes that
I believe can fit
99.9999% of questions. All right guys,
let's switch over to the board and let's
you ever require tuition lessons classes

everything.co.uk or click the link in
the All right guys, let's now go through
McBTH. Now this for me is the ultimate
McBth essay plan. I really believe guys
it is the best essay plan if you want to
succeed. Now if you notice guys I follow
pretzel. I don't have fights about
paragraphs. If you do PL, if you do
Peter, if you do potato, that's fine.
You tweak it as you see fit. But I do
pretzel guys. I do point reference
technique effect zoom effect and link.
Every single paragraph has context after
the effect. But in your GCSE exam guys,
make sure you don't do context in every
single paragraph because context comes
under AO3. And AO3 is only worth six
marks, 20% of the paper. So out of the
four paragraphs, only do context once,
maximum twice. All right, guys, let's
begin. Paragraph number one. This is my
favorite quote when it comes to McBTH.
favorite not because I love the quote
but favorite because I can do so much
with it. The quote guys is from act two
scene one and it is said by McBth just
before he kills King Duncan and McBth is
in his saliloquy. Now this is the
technique and this comes under form. So
AO2 technique is language structure and
form. Saliloquy comes under form. That
is why I use it there because very few
students talk about form and this is a
nice way of bringing it in. So this is
McBth saliloquy. Now what is a siloquy?
A siloquy is when the character is
revealing their thoughts out loud. So no
one's really supposed to hear them.
These are their intrusive thoughts.
These are their private thoughts. And
here we get a real insight into the
character of McBth, how he thinks and
how he feels and so on. So act two scene
one before Mr. McBth goes to kill Duncan
McBth is complaining about his heat
oppressed brain. Now guys this quote
heat oppressed brain what does that
mean? Your brain is what we use not your
brain our brain is what we use for
thinking. Our brain is what we use for
ideas. Your brain is what controls
everything. And your brain is what
controls your actions. For example, if
in my mind I hate someone, then my
actions will reflect it. If I love
someone, then my actions will reflect
it. So your brain is what controls your
ideas. But McBth is saying that my
ideas, my brain is being oppressed. When
you oppress something, you control it in
a negative way. So McBth, he accepts and
he admits that my mind, my ideas, my
thoughts are being controlled. But what
are they being controlled by? He says
the first word. His brain is being
controlled by heat. Now when you put
plastic under overheat under no when you
put plastic under heat, what can you do
to plastic? You can mold it. You can
change it. So he's saying that someone
is applying heat or something is
applying heat to my brain. Why? Because
they want to mold it. because they want
to change
it. Who is applying heat to the brain of
poor
McBTH? This quote is in act two, scene
one. So, who was putting the heat on
McBth in act one? Lady McBth and the
witches. Now, in this quote, McBth
accepts that he is being targeted. He
accepts that he's being controlled. He
accepts that he's being manipulated, but
he still goes and kills Duncan, which
shows that deep down he wants to do it
as well. Now guys, that's the silicy.
For my context, I brought in Freud and
the ID. Now guys, don't get it twisted.
Freud and the id theory is very, very
simple. Now, I've heard some crazy
comments saying, "My teacher said I
can't use Freud because it came out
after the
play." That's what context is. Context
is when you apply theories that didn't
exist at that time to the text. For
example,
patriarchy, women, Lady McBth wasn't
saying, "I want women's
rights." Only
after did people say, "Hold on a
second." That was a patriarchal
society. Every context you use comes
later, guys. for my for my degrees at
university. When I used to do my English
degree, all the context that you use,
all the theories you
use, it's written after the text. That
doesn't make sense to say that the
context would come out before the text.
How can you release context for a book
that hasn't even come out yet? It's a
seriously silly argument. Of course, you
can use Freud. It's a grade nine
context. Now what is Freud all about
guys? If you understand it, use it. If
you don't, don't bother with it. But let
me explain it. Freud guys, he was a
psychologist and he wrote about the
human brain. And he said that there is
one part of our brain that is called the
id ID id. And this part of the brain is
the part of the brain that controls our
instincts. And he said that one instinct
that we all have, me and you, is the
instinct to worship. Is the id of
worship. Everyone worships something.
Whether you worship God, whether you
worship cars, whether you worship Kim
Kardashian or whether you worship
football, everyone worship something is
what he argued. But what I want you to
argue is that McBth, Lady McBth, the
witches are all characters who worship
their desires and they are slaves to
their id because their id their
desire controls them. That is what I
would argue here. So I would say that
this quote shows that McBth is a slave
to his id because look what it's done to
him.
It's absolutely destroyed his mind. And
then for my zooming in back to the
quote, I would zoom into either the
foreshadowing because this quote could
foreshadow the eventual downfall of
McBth or the oxymoron oppressed brain
because your brain is supposed to be
free and not controlled. Now, how could
you use this quote? How could you
possibly use it? If the question came
up, how is Lady McBth presented? Lady
McBth is very very powerful because
she's able to manipulate and control
McBTH. If the question came up, how or
comes up, how is kingship presented?
Guys, kingship has absolutely destroyed
this guy. His desire for kingship is too
much. It's taken over. He is a a a
destroyed man. How is guilt presented?
Same
thing. How is ambition presented?
Dangerous.
Being ambitious is dangerous because
it's not good for you when you can't
control that ambition. What else? What
else? What else? McBth and the witches.
The witches manipulate McBth. Not
physically, but mentally. Any other any
other questions? Kingship
gate. Come on. Why is his brain
oppressed? Maybe he's torn. Maybe he's
battling back and
forth. That's why he's having a battle
internally. Any other scenarios? Any
other scenarios? No, I think I've kind
of answered a lot of them. But guys, you
get what I mean. Now, for those of you
who are revising, all I would do is I
would take that
paragraph, I would write out a
paragraph, and then I would go through
past papers and see how I can make it
fit. Guys, you can make that quote fit
anything. And why it's a beautiful quote
is because it has form and it has
structure, which are two things that are
needed for that grade eight and nine.
All right, guys. Paragraph number two.
This video, this video will be very,
very long if I go out this way, guys.
Paragraph number two. I love this quote.
I love this quote, guys. Act four, scene
one. McBth has just finished the banquet
scene where he sees the ghost of Banquo
and people are starting to think that
McBth, the king, is going crazy. And
this king who represents God upon earth,
this king who's supposed to be the most
noble man
alive gets his begging bone and he goes
to visit his three favorite
people. Act four, scene one, he goes to
visit the witches as the king, as the
man who represents God. He goes and
meets Satan's minions. He goes to see
the witches.
And as he's approaching the
witches, as the king, as he's
approaching, they say something wicked
this way comes. That's the quote. Now,
first things first, this quote is
juosition. Why is this quote juosition?
Because look at who they talking about.
They are talking about McBth. Who is
McBth? McBth is the king. The king
represents everything good, but they say
he's wicked. He's
evil. Now, I want to flip this quote
upside down for a second. A lot of
people when they look at this quote,
they say that the witches are being rude
to McBth. The witches are insulting
McBth. But I want to give you an
alternative. You could argue that in
this quote, the witches are
complimenting McBth. How?
McBth could be compared to the devil,
right? Because of how he behaves. And
the
witches, do they like good people or do
they like bad people? The witches like
bad
people. So if the witches said to McBth,
"Here comes the angel McBth." That
doesn't make sense. They're cursing him
because the witches are against angels.
But when they call McBth wicked, it's as
though even there in awe of who he's
become. Well done. You killed the king.
You killed God's man on earth. You are
now wicked. You are now above us. You've
exceeded even what we thought you could
do. It's a possible alternative in
interpretation, guys, that you can give
for this
quote. And it shows you, remember, who
do the witches worship? The devil. Oh,
guy, this point is amazing. Think about
it. The witches worship the devil. As
the king, McBth was supposed to be God's
man upon earth. But in killing Duncan,
maybe you can argue McBth is not God's
man upon earth. He's the devil's man
upon earth because everything he does
goes against God against religion. O
guys I am cooking because that is a
lovely point. That is a lovely lovely
lovely point you can make for your
exams. Let's carry on guys. Um I've
linked you to kingship kingship and the
great chain of being as the context. My
basic point here guys for context is
this.
McBth obviously isn't in the line of
kingship. He isn't in the great chain of
being. He is an impostor. Hence, he
behaves the way he behaves. Now,
kremorphism, it sounds Japanese,
Chinese, but it's not. It's English.
Cremorphism is the opposite of
personification. So, personification is
when you give a non-human a human
feature. per uh cremmorphism is when you
give a human the feature of an object.
So when they say to McBth something not
someone something they objectify McBth.
So that is cremmorphism. Now why is that
important? Because it shows us guys how
McBth has changed so much that even they
don't recognize him. Who the heck is
this? And it shows us guys how he's
changed. How has he changed? What does
Lady McBth say in act one, scene five?
I'm going to fill you with evil. Guys,
McBth has no emotion. McBth has no
feelings. He's like an object,
something. It has no feelings. That's
what McBTH has
become. How would you use this quote,
guys? Come on. After that, how how can
you not use the court? It fits bloody
everything. How does it fit kingship?
McBth isn't the rightful
king. He's an impostor. He's ruined
kingship. That's the king. Something
wicked this way comes. How does it
present the witches? Twofold. It could
present the witches as being in awe of
Makbath or it could present the witches
as being powerful because this is what
they've done. They made him become like
this from brave mcbth to something
wicked. Same point goes for lady McBth.
She also has a part in this
change. Um any other things? Any other
things? Any other things? Guilt. If the
question of guilt comes up, guys, the
witches feel no guilt. The witches feel
no guilt. They don't care. There's no
remorse at all. Even McBth at this point
feels no guilt. Why? Because like a drug
addict, he's going back to the dealer.
He's going back to the witches for
more. O, guys, I'm telling you, these
two quotes here, just these two, forget
these four. Just these two by themselves
can smash your exams. Now I know some
clever clogs might say, "Oh sir, is it
plagiarism? If we take these ideas, no
silly, of course it's not. I'm giving
you ideas. This is what teachers do in
school. We're analyzing quotes. Your job
is to write the paragraph. Your job is
to structure it. Your job is to show me
your chef's kiss and make it look
perfect." I'm just teaching you. I'm
just giving you ideas. So please please
don't say in the comments, "Oh sir, is
AQA going to kill me if I take these
ideas?" Guys, this is teaching. This is
what teaching is all about. But remember
what all say guys, never copy somebody
else's work because then you are
cheating. Written work. By the way,
don't copy someone else's written work.
All right guys, paragraph number three,
act five, scene five. So act two, scene
one. Act four, scene one. Act five,
scene five. Guys, isn't it concerning
how well I know
McBTH? But let's carry. Lady McBth has
just committed suicide. Life got too
much for her and she thought, "I'm done.
Peace out. Bye-bye, everybody." And she
commits suicide. And the armies of
McDuff and the armies of Malcolm and the
armies of Donald Bane are now around the
castle. And when Lady McBth dies, McBth
begins to deep life a little bit. And he
says, "Life is but a walking shadow."
It's a metaphor because it compares life
to a shadow. That's the comparison.
That's the metaphor. Now, what does this
mean, guys? You know, I argue. I say
that Lady McBth had a hold over McBth.
And when she
dies, one of her spells over McBth is
lifted. One of her one of the things
that she uses to control McBth is
lifted. And then he's like, "What the
heck is going on? What have I been
doing?" And he compares life to a
walking shadow. Guys, you know, if
something is walking, it's it's it's
always fleeting you. It's always going
away from you. And then he says it's a
walking shadow guys. Your shadow. You
can never catch your shadow because when
you move the shadow moves. When you move
it moves again. So McBth here guys is
saying what have I been
doing. I've been
chasing. First I wanted to be the king.
So I killed
Duncan. Then that wasn't enough. Then I
killed Makdaf's children and Lady Makdaf
because they were a
threat. He realizes that as a man, as a
human, you are never satisfied with your
desires. You are constantly
chasing. And the next part of the quote,
guys, is life is but a walking shadow.
And then he says that it's it's a tale
told by an
idiot signifying nothing. Why do I know
the play of a heart? But anyway guys,
that's what he says. And what he's
saying is this, that everything I've
done so far has been for nothing.
Because as humans, we are chasing,
chasing, chasing, chasing. But we're
never
satisfied. You got money, you want more
money. You get a house, you want a
bigger
house. You get a nice car, you want the
better, you want the better car next
year. You buy the iPhone 15, now you
want the iPhone 16. You got a grade
seven, now you want a grade eight.
You're constantly, constantly,
constantly chasing, chasing, chasing.
And this is one of the rare moments in
the play that I would argue, this is one
of the rare moments, guys, in the play
that I would argue McBth feels
regret. McBth here, guys, shows for a
split second that he has a little bit of
regret. I would say a little bit. Don't
get carried away. Don't say McBth
changes completely. That's a bit too
much. But he has a he has a momentary
um moment of regret that takes
place. But it's too late. Why is it too
late? The armies are literally about to
enter the castle. He's about to get
mercked by those soldiers. So guys,
Freud and the id said it earlier. It's
the idea of worshiping something and
being a slave to your desire. Guys, you
want to make a point? Maybe at this
point McBth realizes the danger of
following your
it. Now the last part, the verb walking
is what I would zoom into because it's a
constant chase and you can never catch
it. Now how would I use this quote? This
is a very good quote to use. Let's say
you get kingship. Let's say you get
guilt. Let's say you get betrayal. How
could you use it for kingship? Guys, you
want to make a point in this quote? Even
kingship isn't
enough or the type of kingship he
acquired isn't enough because at the end
of the day it means nothing. Why?
Because everyone is going to die. His
wife just committed
suicide. She was the
queen. Think about it. The queen just
committed suicide. How much did the
title of the queen mean to her if she
killed
herself? So McBth is thinking, "What the
heck, man? I've been chasing the
kingship. What
for? Guilt. He's now feeling a tiny bit
of
guilt. He now feels a tiny bit of
remorse. How could you use this quote
for Lady
McBth? Guys, life is but a walking
shadow. You could use this quote to show
the I I always say it to show how the
control she has over McBth is now lifted
because he almost wakes up the moment
she dies. So it's like when she dies,
one of her one of the spells spells she
casts over him is coming off. Don't know
why I made that sound, but you get what
I mean.
Um, the witches, I would use this quote,
guys, to show how the witches don't have
full control over McBth. They
don't. McBth can think for
himself. The witches are not as powerful
as we
thought. Death is the ultimate reminder.
God is still in control of our text. All
right, guys. Paragraph number four.
Paragraph number four, act one, scene
three. I believe the instruments of
darkness tell us truths only to betray
us. The next part of the quote, should
you want to go that far, only to betray
us. I believe it says in deepest
consequence. Um, but I've taken that
part of the quote, guys. Um, now let's
go over the techniques first. Here we
have a
metaphor because Banquo is comparing the
witches to instruments of darkness.
Now let's go over that part guys. This
quote for me is again a lovely quote.
All of these quotes are
lovely instruments. What do you do with
an instrument? You play an instrument,
right? So the first part I would say is
that the witches are not playing
instruments. The witches are playing
people. So somebody's going to get
played. Who gets played? Everyone gets
played. McBth gets played. Lady McBth
gets played. Even you can argue Bango
himself gets played because in act three
scene one in
Bangor's he says how he suspects that
McBth became the king in a bad way.
Meaning he suspects that McBth killed
Duncan but he starts saying hm they also
promised me that I'm going to have a
line of kings. So even he the one who
warns us about the witches ends up
listening and to an extent waiting for a
prophecy to come
true. Bit of an idiot move there but it
is what it is. So it's a metaphor guys
because somebody's going to get played.
Now instruments of what? Darkness.
They're going to play you in an evil
way. They're going to control you in an
evil way. Now the instrument of darkness
tell us truths. Banko says, "Listen,
McBth, they're going to tell you certain
things that will be true, but then
they're going to betray you." Now, they
only tell McBth two things, but look at
the juxiposition in what they tell him.
In act one, scene three, they say, "All
hail McBth, uh, Stain of Glam, Stain of
Cordor, and shall be king
hereafter." The first three things they
say to McBth are very clear. They're not
confusing. The literally one line in the
play, glamis, cordoro, king. Those are
three things they tell McBth in act one,
scene three. They tell him clay
truths. They tell him things that make
sense. Then in act four, scene one, they
speak in absolute riddance. They pull
him in. They get him on side with the
first set of prophecies.
But when they got McBth's trust, when
they got McBth where they want him, now
they are ready to betray him. They've
used Makbath. What did they use Makbath
for? To kill the king. Job's done. Now
we don't need you. And now we're going
to betray you leading to your downfall.
And what's the second set of prophecies?
The first one I believe is beware
Maktaf. Make sense?
But the second one says, "No man born of
a woman can harm you." How does that
make sense? How can you tell me on one
hand, "Beware, Maktaf, who's a man." And
then on the other hand, tell me, "Don't
worry about it. No man can harm you. No
man born of a woman can harm you." Guys,
that prophecy juxtaposes that prophecy.
The prophecies don't make sense. They
are confusing McBth. And then the third
prophecy is even worse. What's the third
prophecy? Until Burnham wood comes to
Dansen, you're going to be good. What
does that mean? It means until the
forest, until the woods come walking to
your house, you're going to be good.
Imagine McBth here thinking how the hell
are trees going to walk? How are leaves
and branches going to walk? How is a man
not born of a woman going to harm me?
Because every man is born of a
woman. But then beware
McDuff guys, the witches in the second
set of prophecies are confusing as hell.
Why? Because the instruments of
darkness. Bango told us this. Bango at
the beginning foreshadowed the entire
play. Wrong quote over here. Yeah, guys.
Bango here foreshadowed the entire play.
how he told us that the instruments of
darkness, meaning the witches, will get
you on
side until they've used
you. And then they will betray you
leading to a deepest consequence. And
what is the deep consequence? McDuff
chops his head off and Lady McBth
commits suicide. How how what else can
happen that is worse than that?
And that is how I would use that quote
guys. This quote here is a lovely quote.
Um that's the position. Uh the metaphor
is a comparison. And the context I would
use guys is the betrayal of the
supernatural. Never trust them. Never
trust these beings. Now how would you
use this question guys? How would you
kingship is a lovely one for this one.
How would I use this for uh kingship
now? You know, guys, it
really I don't want to get too angry,
but it really kind of gets to me how
everyone has the same copy and paste
paragraph that the witches target McBth
because McBth is ambitious. Guys, come
on, man. You're ambitious. I'm
ambitious. You wouldn't be watching
these videos if you weren't ambitious.
Cuz you don't want to fail your
exams. Bangor is ambitious.
McBth is
ambitious. What could be another reason
other than ambition as to why the
witches target McBth? Guys, I argue a
real good argument to use is this. The
witches don't give a monkeys about
McBth. That's why they allow him to die.
Who do they care about? The
king. The witches use Makbath to destroy
kingship. And the moment McBth has
killed the king, they betray him because
they don't need him. So an argument you
can make that in this quote, Banko shows
us how the witches are tactical. They
are strategic. They target
kingship, the instruments of darkness.
They're not playing with McBth and
Bango. They want to destroy the king
because the king is the one that's
caused all their problems. He's the one
who's burning witches to the stake. He's
the one who's chucking them off
mountains. He is the one that represents
God. So the witches target
kingship. Then guys, for the other
characters genuinely, I would say that
this quote shows how every single one of
them is a victim. Bangor is a victim.
McBth is a victim. Lady McBth is a
victim of the game that is played by the
witches. And for the witches themselves,
guys, don't mess with these girls. They
are
powerful. Say what you like about them,
but they are powerful because at the end
of the day, they are the last one
standing. Duncan falls, Bankor falls,
Lady McFetth falls, McBth falls. But the
witches, they're fine. They played their
game and they said, "Peace out." All
right, guys. A paragraph for everyone.
Paragraph number four. Paragraph number
four, guys. Act one, scene
one. Guys, again, this is a lovely
quote. If you analyze it the way I'm
going to tell you, thunder, in thunder,
lightning, or in rain off the bat, yes,
it's pathetic fallacy. Um, because the
weather being used reflects a very,
very, very terrible, very nasty, very,
very destructive mood. We know that.
Tick. Done. Put that to one side.
in thunder, lightning, or in rain.
Guys, open your ears and listen to me
because I'm going to give you a
beautiful analysis. I've given this in
previous videos, but I'm going to give
it to you
fresh. Use this quote like this.
So, yes, it shows how powerful the
witches are because the witches are
choosing between the weathers, right?
They're saying, "Shall we meet in
thunder? Shall we meet in lightning?" or
not and or in rain, which shows that
Shakespeare gives these lovely,
beautiful women godlike powers because
they're able to choose between the
weather. Cool. We get that point.
They're powerful at everything. But this
is how I want you to analyze this.
I want you guys to say that this quote
shows us and Shakespeare foreshadows the
entire text. You know the majority of
Shakespeare plays. What do they begin
with? They begin with a prologue. What
is a prologue? A prologue is when
somebody comes out on stage and tells
you what the play is about. I argue act
one, scene one of McBTH is our informal
prologue, our unofficial prologue. In
this quote, the witches tell us
everything that will happen.
How? The first part of the quote,
thunder. Thunder is heard, right?
Thunder is something you hear. Now, in
act
one, there's so much
noise. So much r. There's so much
noise. Talking and talking and talking
and talking and talking. Who's talking?
Who's the thunder of act one? Lady McBth
and the
witches. They don't be quiet. Mainly
Lady McBth. And who are they talking to?
They talking to McBth. The thunder is
just rogue is just going on and on and
on and on. Now what does thunder cause?
Thunder causes lightning. After thunder
there's
lightning. Lightning is a rare
act. Very few people are hit by
lightning. For example, lightning is a
rare
thing. What is the rare
act? What is the once in a lifetime act
that the thunder in our play causes? The
killing of
Duncan. Kings being killed in their bed
was not normal like lightning. It was
very very rare to be struck by
lightning. The thunder caused the
lightning. The talking of the witches
which was the thunder. The talking of
Lady McBth which was the thunder. It led
to the lightning. But after the
lightning, what comes next is the rain.
Rain is not rare. Everyone gets wet.
Everyone gets drenched. Everyone gets
soaked. When McBth kills the
king,
everyone suffers
afterwards. Go through the mall.
Malcadain have to run. Lady McBth and
McBth, I've explained what happened to
them. Bango ends up six feet deep.
Fiance ends up without a dad and the
guy's god knows where. Lady McDuff and
Makdaf, sorry. Lady Makdaf and her child
are killed. Makdaf loses a family.
Everyone gets
wet. That is why this quote thunder,
lightning, and rain can be seen as a
symbol of the entire play McBth. And it
can be seen as the foreshadowing. The
witches are telling us in act one, scene
one, what will happen in this
text. If you're going to analyze like
that, it is a lovely, lovely quote to
use. Uh it shows you guys, this quote
shows you the power of the
witches and it shows you honestly how
the other characters didn't have a
chance. They were going to rule the text
for a little while. They were going to
win for a little while.
Nobody to the chance because the thunder
was too strong, the lightning was too
powerful, and the rain left nobody out.
Nobody. From the king to a kid like
Fiance, everyone was impacted by the
supernatural. That is so good. I should
give myself a round of applause.
Paragraph number six, guys. Paragraph
number six. Now, out of all my quotes,
out of all my
quotes, this one is my least favorite,
but it's there because it serves a
purpose. Now, the quote is from act one,
scene two, unseen him from the nave to
the chops. That's the quote. He unseen
him from the nave to the chopped chops.
Now, when you unseam something, you tear
it apart, guys. You tear it apart. If I
tear my jumper, I won't do that right
now cuz I might get cancelled. But if I
tear my jumper, guys, I tear the seams.
I tear it apart. Now, it says that McBth
when he fights on the battlefield, he
unseen the enemy from the belly button
to the chin. He cuts them open. Now,
think about how McBth fights. When
you're on a battlefield, your enemy is
wearing armor. your enemy is wearing is
wearing is wearing is wearing like maybe
a shield or whatever they've got and
then they've got their body and then
they've got their muscles. So for McBth
to cut somebody open, he can't fight 2 m
apart like co he's got to get
close because he's got to cut you in and
then go all the way up. You can't do
this from far away. It's not going to
work. You're not going to open. You
might cut them, but you're not going to
open them up. So for McBth to kill you,
he comes close like he can smell you.
He's not afraid of you. He has so much
confidence in his ability that he comes
right near you. I was not going to kiss
my hand, but yeah, he comes right near
you and then he cuts you in and then he
cuts you all the way up from the nave to
the chops.
That's how McBth kills. The guy is a
gorilla versus a 100 men. The guy is an
absolute savage. He loves the kill. He
loves the idea of
warfare. That's who McBth is. That's the
guy you're messing around with. And
that's how you want to view this
character. He is taking no prisoners.
When people say McBth is a really
powerful guy, guys, come on, give the
guy credit. He is
singlehandedly destroying armies after
armies. And the crazy thing is he loves
it. He's not afraid of you. He's coming
close, killing, and moving on. Now guys,
why is it chrommorphism? Because he
treats his opponents like they're
objects. He unseen
them. You don't unseem humans. You
unseen things, you unseen jumpers.
That's why it's
chemorphism. Patriarchy, guys, because
McBth is the perfect man contextually.
Contextually, I don't want to upset
somebody here, but McBth is the perfect
man, guys,
contextually. And violent imagery, guys,
I very rarely use it, but here it fits
perfectly. This is gruesome. This is
nasty. This is disgusting. Now, how
would you use this quote? Obviously guys
for McBth it shows how powerful he is,
how much of a savage warrior he is, how
undefeable he
is for for for the witches. This is very
important for the witches. Guys, you
know how I always say this guys, I have
an app. I have an app everything
education. There is an app in the app
store and an app in the play store. So
if you click the link in the
description, do go and download that
app. The app has almost 15,000 questions
and it is updated weekly. I believe it's
on the verge of becoming one of the best
apps for your learning. It covers
everything for English, everything for
maths and everything for science. So
guys, do head over to the app store or
the play store and do download the
everything education app. You want to be
the best, you got to beat the best. The
witches they this quote shows also how
powerful they are because in coming to
McBth they come and take the
strongest. How can I explain this guys?
Let's let's look look guys. Imagine
you've got a gorilla. Let's use the
analogy guys. You've got a gorilla
versus a 100 men. And there's one guy
out of the 100 men who everyone's
relying upon. He's the guy who's killed
a thousand gorillas.
He's the guy who's got all the
experience. He's the guy that the other
99 came with because he's the one
they're going to rely upon. Imagine he
switched sides and joined the
gorilla. I can't believe I'm using that
example, but it makes sense, guys. If he
switched, if the gorilla can make him
switch, then what hope do the others
have? This quote shows how powerful
McBTH is. Because if the witches can
turn McBth, if the witches can flip
McBth, guys, nobody got a chance. He was
the best soldier. He was the best in the
entire kingdom. He was the trusted
soldier. And he turns and kills the
king. So, it shows you how powerful the
witches
are. It shows you how ambition is like a
drug. All you got to do is dangle it in
front of people and they'll come
running.
But guys, that's a very very very lovely
quote. Now look guys, remember this.
Remember remember
remember I've given you six. I've given
you six quotes on the day of your exam.
All you got to do is make two of them
fit. Guys, two of these are definitely
going to fit. How can they not? What
they going to ask you? How is the tree
presented in Mbth?
Two of these quotes 100% will fit on the
day of your
exam. Learn them, use them. My advice
guys to you would be this. So my
favorite quotes are one 2
3 4 5 6. That's the order like if I was
ranking the quotes. Every essay I do for
McBTH, I'm going to use this quote.
every single essay because I need form
and this gives me that paragraph there
and I can make this quote for
everything. Then I would use one of the
other five. Now guys, what I would do is
this today, sit down, get a pen, get a
paper and go through the past papers. So
if you go to
everythingucation.co.uk, is it going to
work guys? If you go to
everythingucation.co.uk, UK. If you
click on past papers, if you go to
English
literature, if you then go to paper one,
you'll find all the past papers
beautifully structured there for you.
So, take the plan and open up the past
papers. Let's let's do one together.
Take the plan, guys, and open up the
past papers and go to the questions. So
this question says talk about what is
it? Talk about ambition in mcbth. Then
once you've read the question plan two
paragraphs based upon the extract and
then go
here and look at these six and decide
which two you would use. So for example,
what what would I use? I would use this
one. How ambition is dangerous. That's
the first one I would use. Ambition is a
dream. No matter what you achieve,
you're never satisfied. I would use that
one. So, I would use that one and I
would use that one. But then what I
would do, guys, is write out the
paragraphs from the P to the L. Write
out the entire paragraph. If you can
keep doing this today, tomorrow,
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
Sunday, by the time your exams come,
you've used these paragraphs seven
times. On Monday, just do it an eighth
time. But really practice these
paragraphs. All right,
cool. How long was that
video? Okay, guys. I hope you found
benefit in that video. These are the
videos we care about, not the prediction
videos. I hope you found benefit in
these videos,
guys. I have one coming out for
Christmas Carol, one coming out for
Jacqueline Hyde, one coming out for
Romeo and Juliet. Then I've got a video
coming out where I'm going to go through
an entire English literature paper and
then you guys will do your exam and then
the content will be for literature paper
two. All right guys, I hope you found
the video beneficial. It's been Mr.
Everything English.
Peace.
