In Act 5 of #Macbeth, it is clear that they show the theory of gender roles and how men ought to act when it comes to fighting/war. They illustrate that men ought to die fighting rather than die like a coward scared to battler. #muddybuddies
In Act 5 of #Macbeth, we see the final war we have all been waiting for. It was sad to see young Siward sacrifice himself, but you knew when Macbeth had to fight Macduff, that the vengeance Macduff had would overpower Macbeth leading to Macbeth's death. #muddybuddies
In act 4 of #Macbeth, we see Macbeth again hire people to kill Lady Macduff and his son. I think it is interesting how we went from being to scared to kill the king, to now being willing to kill anyone. Really shows you what power does to the mind of a person. #muddybuddies
In act 4 of #Macbeth, we continue to see, off the rip, just the power the witches have over Macbeth. This continues to tie into the psychoanalytic theory and how prominent it is in this production. #muddybuddies
@_rumaisarehman@RMaanS23 I agree as well, a true warrior would not feel as much guilt killing the king as Macbeth did. You could see that Macbeth did like the king and felt bad that he killed him in order to take over the throne. #muddybuddies
In Act 2 of #Macbeth, we see Macbeth finally kills the king and goes to Lady Macbeth afterward. One thing that stood out to me is the Lady Macbeth might be crazy, as she shows hardly any emotion after the king is killed. #muddybuddies
I think another literary theory that could be seen here in act 1 of #Macbeth could actually be psychoanalytic. It is very small part, but when Lady Macbeth is going in on Macbeth for not being manly enough to kill Duncan, we could see this example of psychoanalytic. #muddybuddies
Similar to other people's opinion, in #Macbeth act 1, you could watch the play through a monster theory because of how the witches are portrayed. #muddybuddies
In Octavia Butler's #Bloodchild, there is a quote towards the beginning that really stands out to me. It reads, "Why are you in such a hurry to be old"? This stood out to me because people always worry about the future, which takes them away from the present. #muddybuddies
#Anders one line that kind of confuses me is, "Some of those screaming people were old enough to have grown up in the United States of America, but they acted as though these two lands had always been enemies". America and California are enemies? #muddybuddies
#Anders shows a little bit of allegory, or a hidden message. It is written that you may have a different thinking of the store depending on the way you enter. This can be applied to life! We can shape our lives based on our perspectives of certain outcomes. #muddybuddies
In Martha Wells, "All System Red", we can see just how powerful and decisive the murderbot can be, maybe showing AI can also be decisive on its own. It was also interesting to me that the bot did not want to talk to the humans, as it was "awkward". #muddybuddies
In Martha Wells's, "All System Red", I thought this was very interesting to read since we are emerging in the time of AI. We see, though the name murderbot, how nurturing this bot truly is and how AI can be used for good. #muddybuddies
One thing that stood out to me in Saunders, "My Flamboyant Grandson", was how he defined America. With the quote, "America to me should be shouting all the time, a bunch of shouting voices, most of them wrong, some of them nuts...". #muddybuddies
"My Flamboyant Grandson", by George Saunders, is a story showing unconditional love for your family no matter what. We see that the boy was teased with words, actions, and even by the bus driver. But throughout the story, we see the grandfather continue to show love #muddybuddies
In #Collin's, "Sonnet", there was a line that really stuck out to me, and it is, "one for every station of the cross". There is 14 lines in the poem and 14 stations of the cross, so being the Catholic that I am, I thought that was a cool line. #muddybuddies
In #Collin's, "Sonnet", I really enjoyed how it was light hearted and a little funny. For example, there were lines how he would talk about how many more lines are left in the poem, how he talked about there is 13, now a dozen, and then wrapping it up with six. #muddybuddies
@LCmud2023 I would agree with you on this. At first it seems like a romantic love story, but really, if you look deeper, the speaker is just objectifying the woman of the model. #muddybuddies
In #Rossetti's, "In an artist's studio, we see that the interpretation is the speaker, maybe a man, is objectifying this woman as he is painting her. The line, "Not as she is, but as she fills his dream" shows how the speaker is objectifying the woman. #muddybuddies
