symbolism

Today in class we discussed symbolism. We began by discussing symbols we see in every day life. We then applied our knowledge of symbols to today's world or pop culture, via a study of Lady Gaga. Finally, we took all of this developed knowledge about symbols and applied it to the study of symbolism in Macbeth. Find an example of symbolism in Macbeth (it can be one that was discussed in class today) and post it under the comments section. Your post should include a line for the play in quotation marks and the reference to which act, scene, and lines it came from. Here are a list of symbols in Macbeth:

  • blood
  • the weather
  • animals
