Macbeth: Common Core Study Text

Three witches foretell that Macbeth will become king of Scotland. Encouraged by his ambitious wife, Macbeth murders King Duncan – but soon finds himself plunged into a world of terror as the dead come back to haunt him … Although suitable for every reader, this larger print edition of Shakespeare’s compelling play is particularly appropriate for pupils studying Macbeth in their Common Core English Literature classes at High School. Here, the wider margins provide valuable extra space for students (and teachers) to add their own explanatory notes, translations of unfamiliar words and points for comparison, discussion or further thought.
