    What would you all say?

    I have the witches, the inner conflict within Mb and LMb, England-v-Scotland, Macbeth-v-Macduff and Macbeth-v-Malcolm.

    Anything else?

    Macbeth's reliance on witches vs Edward's reliance on heaven springs to mind. Macbeth's general tyranny and brutalness (i.e. low point is pointless murder of Macduff's family).

    Yup, more or less had that. I knew I should compare Edward and Macbeth couldn't quite work out how. Thanks!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 73 ✭✭Emu McEmuerson


    who the hell is Edward?! lol..

    or is that using Macbeth as a comparitive?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 372 ✭✭Outcast


    No, Edward is the English King.

    what are you even going for? like what kinda course?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 94 ✭✭KarmaCreep


    what are you even going for? like what kinda course?

    English and French or History in Trinity. I could do it UCD for like 350 points but Trinity has probably the best Faculty of English in the country particularily for Poetry. I'm a bit mad i know. What about yourself?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 73 ✭✭Emu McEmuerson


    sure why settle for anything but the best, eh?

    I'm doing T.v and Film in Ballyfermot - its SUCH a deadly course!

    'Tis the only college in Dublin to have an actual tv studio and all that crap. Plus there's a photography and scriptwriting module on it - with work experience.

    I love all that editing/producing crap - pretty darn perfect! :D

    Deadly. I considered sound engineering and that area of things for a while but decided English would aid my songwriting more than sound engineering would aid my musicianship.

    The Scots = Celts.
    The Irish = Celts.
    The English = Oppressors of Ireland and Scotland.

    Not only is it a conspiracy but the English are racist.:D
