How should you start and essay on Lady Macbeth?

Answer 1

Lady Macbeth essay.

NOTE* REMEMBER THE S.E.E.D FORMAT

(Statement, Example, Explain, Develop)

There are two ways to do this. Both are here. But The second one just links Lady Macbeth to an idea, the first is just on Lady Macbeth. I think the second one is better than the first, but here we go...

ONE:

Introduction

1st paragraph: gender

Talk about her place in that society and how she is a contradiction to that time period

2nd paragraph manipulation

Talk about how she manipulates Macbeth

3rd paragraph character growth

Talk about how she goes from power hungry to (nuts) crazy

Conclusion

TWO:

Introduction: Talk about Shakespeare and the book Macbeth. Introduce: Lady Macbeth and her character. (Don't give to much information away). Link to an idea such as power

1st para: GENDER

Talk about Lady Macbeth and her place in that time. (She was more power hunger and dominate than woman in the Elizabethan era.)

(E.G. of Statement): Lady Macbeth is an unusual character as she is extremely ambitious and in search of power, this is at odds with the Elizabethan perception of woman.

2nd para: MANIPULATION

Talk about Lady Macbeth's manipulation of her husband throughout the text.

(E.G. of Statement): Lady Macbeth's hunger for power leads her to manipulate her husband to kill the King.

3rd para: VICTIM OF HER OWN GUILT

Talk about her descent towards the end of the text and how she slowly starts to go crazy.

(E.G. of Statement):She is a victim to her own ambition as guilt eventually overcomes her. This shows that power comes with a price.

Conclusion: Sum up your essay.

Answer 2

You start all essays with an introductory paragraph explaining what you are going to talk about in the essay, and defining your terms. For example, "the book and the movie" won't do. You need to say which book and which movie. It really helps when you start an essay to have an idea how you are going to end it. For example, if your conclusion is that the book which describes the character as short, stocky, and blonde is different from the film where she is tall and dark, then it helps in your introduction to say, "I propose to examine the physical characteristics of the character to see how they are similar and different."
