Teacher comment:
Good breakdown of key words in the quotation. Analyses both the language
technique (e.g. hyperbole, juxtaposition) and effect of each choice.
Target: Link to the gothic genre. The term blood in gothic genre denotes the act of
killing the transfer of blood from one person to another. Thus, Macbeth has gained
the blood of King Duncan, and with it, his power. Look for examples of the gothic
protagonists fragmented mind too. You could continue analysis of the juxtaposition,
showing elements of innocence in Macbeths personality (maybe link to Lady
Macbeth?)
