Due Monday, December 18th - "Macbeth" Act III

Please finish reading "Macbeth" Act III and complete the 13 study questions in your journal.

I would like you to do a little research and find examples of real life Macbeths and Lady Macbeths.  Look for world leaders who abused their power through ambition.  It need not be murder (though, sadly, that has happened more times than we can count).

How has financial greed caused an abuse of power?  This can be seen in companies that started off with a worthy goal, and then ended up allowing money, greed, power and ambition take over.

In the following blog post, please share a real life example of a person or entity that resembles the downfall of Macbeth.  Please include a link to the website, so we can see your work.  Also, include at least 1-3 direct quotation(s) from Macbeth that shows the direct parallel to your example.

I look forward to your responses.

Mr. P. ;)
