Download or read book A Guide to Reading Shakespeare s Macbeth written by Maria Franziska Fahey, Dr and published by . This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many guides dictate the meanings of Shakespeare's scenes and translate his rich language into more ordinary speech. But A Guide to Reading Shakespeare's Macbeth gives readers the tools to understand the play for themselves. The greater part of the guide is comprised of a sequence of carefully designed questions for each scene of the play. These questions give readers needed guidance to parse the play's sometimes complex and obscure language and to begin to grasp its larger themes. Before these scene-by-scene questions to guide close reading, four brief chapters provide information key to understanding the play: a description of how modern editions of Macbeth adapt the 1623 First Folio text alerts readers to what editors may introduce; an introduction to meter provides the essentials needed to hear how Shakespeare composes differently for witches than for kings; an introduction to figurative language offers techniques to comprehend Shakespeare's abundant imagery; and an outline of the play's core topics prepares readers to consider its key motifs. A Guide to Reading Shakespeare's Macbeth gives readers the methods and the confidence to arrive at their own interpretations of Shakespeare's great tragedy.

Download or read book The Third Witch written by Rebecca Reisert and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-03-02 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebecca Reisert's mesmerizing first novel re-imagines Macbeth, Shakespeare's classic tragedy of power and madness, through the eyes of a mysterious young woman on a dangerous quest for vengeance. For the girl called Gilly, life in the wilds of Birnam Wood is little more than a desperate struggle for survival. Seven long years have passed since she was first taken in and sheltered by Nettle and Mad Helga, the hut-dwelling wise-women whose inscrutable powers of alchemy and prophecy are feared and reviled throughout good King Duncan's kingdom. Living under the threat of deadly persecution by witch-hunting villagers, the threesome ekes out a life by peddling potions and elixirs, scavenging for food, and robbing the bloodied corpses of Scotland's battle-scarred hills for precious metals and weapons. But Gilly is haunted by recollections of a much brighter life. She clings to fading memories of a time when she was contented and adored -- until tragedy swept all that happiness away and young Gilly's life was changed forever. I have made my life an arrow, and His heart is my home. I have made my heart a blade, and His heart is my sheath....Obsessed with avenging her loss and putting out the fire that still rages in her heart, Gilly has dedicated herself to destroying Macbeth, the boundlessly ambitious man who took away her childhood, and his goading wife. Disguising herself as a poor servant boy, she insinuates herself into their lives and, as she bears horrified witness to Macbeth's violent path to power, Gilly subtly begins to take a hand in the forces governing his fate. But as the culmination of her revenge draws near, Gilly finds her own life at risk when she confronts the troubling legacy of a long-concealed heritage. The Third Witch is a brilliantly imagined, wonderfully satisfying novel. In a riveting story of ruthlessness and revenge, debut author Rebecca Reisert demonstrates a profound understanding of the Bard's timeless drama -- and of the real-life Macbeth upon whom Shakespeare's incarnation is modeled.

Download or read book Parental Involvement in Childhood Education written by Garry Hornby and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parental participation has long been recognized as a positive factor in children’s education. Research consistently shows that parents’ contributions to their children’s education lead to improvements in their academic and behavioral outcomes, from elementary through middle and secondary school. Recognizing the critical role of school psychologists in this equation, Parental Involvement in Childhood Education clearly sets out an evidence-based rationale and blueprint for building parental involvement and faculty awareness. The author’s starting point is the gap between the ideals found in the literature and the reality of parental involvement in schools. An ecological analysis identifies professional, institutional, and societal factors that keep schools and parents distant. Methods for evaluating parental involvement are detailed, as is a model for developing and maintaining strong parental relationships at the instructor, school, and education system level, with an emphasis on flexible communication and greater understanding of parents’ needs. This empirically sound coverage offers readers: A detailed understanding of obstacles to parental involvement. An evidence-based model for parental participation. A three-nation study of parental involvement practices in schools. Guidelines for implementing parental involvement activities and initiatives. A review of effective communication strategies with parents. Analysis of key interpersonal skills for effective work with parents. Parental Involvement in Childhood Education is essential reading for practitioners and researchers in school psychology and counseling, social work, and educational psychology, whether they work directly with schools or in providing training for teachers and other professionals who work with children and their parents.
