Tonight's episode looks at the context for Shakespeare's Macbeth. What was happening in England around the time it was written? What's the historical source for the characters and is that source reliable? What are the questions the bard asks of humanity, and can we find his answers or opinion in the text? I'm diving into the deep end with this exploration. I hope I'm up to the challenge.
