She then goes on to explain why this anecdote fits into the larger themes of gender inequality and the stereotypes we place and enforce upon 'male' or 'female' things. https://nowcomment.com/documents/166472?scroll_to=1607726 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166472?scroll_to=1607726 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 17:03:07 -0400 or that stereotypically feminine activities don't have the loyalty, ferocity, and intense emotion that sports have (as sports are stereotypically male). https://nowcomment.com/documents/166472?scroll_to=1607689 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166472?scroll_to=1607689 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 17:03:07 -0400 apparently he had nothing else to do for a good half hour so he went and chased some kids around. I wonder if his car was stolen or not- as he left it open and unattended and probably unlocked. https://nowcomment.com/documents/166472?scroll_to=1607656 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166472?scroll_to=1607656 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 17:03:07 -0400 she's not talking about her own writing- but a poem she had to memorize for church when she was a wee las. (at least thats how I was able to contextualize this piece). https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1607628 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1607628 Fri, 14 Feb 2020 13:19:36 -0500 letting go literally and metaphorically. She lets go of her self hate and yearn to be 'normal' while also letting go of her built up urine. https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603907 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603907 Fri, 14 Feb 2020 08:41:42 -0500 the idea that her unhappiness was brought around by a physical antagonist, someone she could pin the blame onto, and not some amorphous group that is extremely prejudicial and racist. https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603901 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603901 Fri, 14 Feb 2020 08:41:42 -0500 She describes her self hate, and insecurity about herself, and her her appearance. https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603867 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603867 She also states that she thinks the dress she is wearing would look good on her if only she had the looks of the celebrities of that era (white, blonde, petite in stature, and very thin). She even states later on that she wishes she would wake up white and blonde. This sentence in contrast shows us how Maya Angelou thought that the dress she wore did not complement her natural looks, and made her look disproportionate, and also "muddy". Fri, 14 Feb 2020 08:41:42 -0500 such great description and sensory detail- using words such as "taffeta", "hearses", "crepe paper", and "rustled". It just makes the prologue that much better. https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603788 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603788 Fri, 14 Feb 2020 08:41:42 -0500 Almost ironic as she forgot poetry as a child not knowing that she would be a famous poet known for her lectures, readings of her poetry, and generally her writing overall. https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603756 https://nowcomment.com/documents/166444?scroll_to=1603756 Fri, 14 Feb 2020 08:41:42 -0500 Or they're just OCD or a Workaholic..... could be something other than the family relations or a previous trauma. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542581 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542581 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:51 -0400 Just to be clear, scientists have no solid idea of why we have dreams, there is much speculation on why we dream the dreams we have, but there is no real reason that we have certain dreams other than the strange associations our minds make while asleep. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542579 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542579 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:51 -0400 But, the opposite of this could be true. Everything about the psychological analysis of a person's thoughts or mind depends on how they react to stress, love or other stimuli, and these can produce different results. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542568 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542568 Someone might pursue a married man because they were in competition with their mother for their father's love, but they might pursue a mildly tempered man who will care about them and only them. Or they might not be interested in men, and maybe they would pursue a toxic relationship with another woman, or they could pursue a meaningful relationship with a caring woman. It all depends on the person. Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:50 -0400 This might be a bit outdated as since Freud's theories were published we had- WWI, WWII, the civil rights movement in the US, the push towards gender equality, computers, nowcomment, the push for LGBTQ rights. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542559 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1542559 So, it can be said that the fundamental ways our minds have developed, paired with the huge difference in the environments we were raised in have changed the ways that psychology has worked or can be applied. Most would say that "penis envy" or the "oedipal conflict" are not correct or accurate, because women do not envy men's reproductive organs, they envy their social standard and their privilege. Freud's misinterpretation of these situations have led to the creation and belief of these ideas about the psychology of women or other peoples. Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:50 -0400 Freud uses the connection between Macbeth (as king) and other monarchs who had no children- or couldn't. This could be solid. However, the Macbeth's despair seems to be evident long before his rise to power. https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539898 https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539898 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:55:11 -0400 Almost as to show how despite the fact that Macbeth did the deeds that were unforgivable, Lady Macbeth feels as if it is all her fault because she was the puppeteer behind Macbeth- so the blood on his hands is thus on hers. https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539897 https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539897 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:55:11 -0400 This also connects to the overall idea that the mark you leave on the world is far more important than you yourself. In this way, the children you raise and leave after you die would be your mark or legacy. https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539893 https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539893 This is especially important as the legacy a monarch leaves can shape the country they rue over in the future. Alternatively, a Monarch who doesn't have children to give his throne to can be seen as the last of their legacy or the end of their bloodline or dynasty. Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:55:11 -0400 Frued's idea about disillusionment can also connect to the idea of want, and the yearning for power. Freud says that Lady Macbeth is disappointed. https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539882 https://nowcomment.com/documents/161758?scroll_to=1539882 This could be because there will never be a point where she has enough power, her need for control is not attainable even though she is the queen of Scotland- and controls the king of Scotland (Macbeth). Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:55:11 -0400 In ordinary situations we are not mentally deranged psychopaths. So most normal people would probably not use these defenses in a toxic way. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529730 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529730 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:49 -0400 This is about how one fear can lead to others, and how the close mindedness of a person can cause one fear to become many as they are not seen as possibilities but as threats. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529707 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529707 We can see this as many people who believe and enforce one prejudice may believe in others. Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:49 -0400 Oedipal- as in Oedipus Rex, the tragic greek character who was abandoned by his parents, killed his father, and married his mother. This tragedy resulted in his suicide. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529665 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529665 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:49 -0400 This idea can cause people to seek out the extreme to reaffirm their identities, or to seek out a person who will confirm who they are. This can culminate in a destructive relationship, or a possessive relationship, both of which can be toxic. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529662 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529662 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:49 -0400 Usually an anxiety or fear on the victim's side of the spectrum. Low esteem can cause a person to seek out or maintain a relationship in which they are degraded as to reaffirm that they are less than others. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529651 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529651 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:49 -0400 this can progress into manipulation or possessiveness in a toxic situation, so that the person who is untrusting can be sure that their partner or associate is not betraying them. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529644 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529644 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:49 -0400 This shows how we can use our fears to steer our actions as a toxic defense. https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529641 https://nowcomment.com/documents/160745?scroll_to=1529641 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 16:53:49 -0400 This quote also shows how the only thing Macduff wants to say is how much he is going to hurt Macbeth for all the pain he has caused. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1517013 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1517013 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Macduff says this to show how he has nothing to say to Macbeth, and how he will not be persuaded to spare his life. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1517012 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1517012 This also shows the contrast of the simple avenger and the manipulative villain who doesn't stop to fight and continues to try and get under your skin with their words. Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Macbeth in his unruly mind almost tries to defy fate- or the witches' fate as he chooses not to fight Macduff in the moment. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1516997 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1516997 Even though he changes his mind this might be able to show us how in Macbeth going against fate is not something possible, it is written in stone as something that will happen, no matter how vague it might be. The vagueness is key here too, as the big events are set in stone, but the little details are all up for change and manipulation. Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Macduff shows off Macbeth's decapitated head not as a show of power, but as a promise for change now that the evil tyrant Macbeth is on a pike dead for all to see. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1516995 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1516995 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Malcolm chooses his words well as he insinuates that they will only have those thanes that they trust at his coronation, no traitors such as Macbeth or his lackeys. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1516993 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1516993 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Malcolm continues to describes his deep hatred towards Macbeth and how he destroyed his father and tore apart his family- and continues to plague the people of Scotland with his delusions of grandeur. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516991 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516991 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 Malcolm is describing to Macduff how that the good in this world still shine through the darkest hour, and that even though good takes many a blow from evil, good still looks righteously fair. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516990 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516990 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 Macduff refers to his (Malcolm's) birthright to the throne of Scotland as his birthdom. Duncan's death is the downfall'n described in this quote. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516989 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516989 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 The Murderers lie to Lady Macduff so she falls into a false sense of security. This is possible because no one expects the Messenger to be the killer- only the letter they carry. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516987 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516987 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 The ever so common question of why good prevails against the greater odds against evil. Honesty being good, and liars, swearers and fools being less good or more evil. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516979 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516979 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 Lady Macduff's son describes how no one will be the same as Macduff, and that no man bought now can replace the hole left in the household of Fife, or the hole in the family of Fife. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516971 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516971 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 She describes how Macduff fled out of fear (she thinks) and not because of a secret mistress, or because he loves another king more that he did Duncan. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516970 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516970 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 Almost to show the other witches that they are but the simple common fae, compared to her godlike being. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516969 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1516969 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 Macbeth continues to boast about how their fortress is so strong that it is a shame that they won't have to fight with them in battle as that would have been a pleasure to do. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515024 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515024 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Macbeth boasts to his companions that their castle will have no trouble guarding them from Malcolm and Macduff, and that it will be so easy that they will laugh in the faces of their enemies trivial trials to break the wall. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515022 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515022 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Macbeth is trying to stir confidence by promising to himself that he shall not be scared, and that his cause is the only right way to go. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515014 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515014 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 With Angus saying this we can infer that the knowledge or suspicion that Macbeth is a murderer has become common among the rebel army- or the common lords. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515005 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1515005 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:53 -0400 Mentheith does not refer to Macduff as a traitor but as the "Good Macduff", therefore we can infer that these are the scottish allies of Malcolm, and the other traitors or rebels that do not accept Macbeth as king of Scotland. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514998 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514998 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 People often confess only to their dreams of their deepest secrets that should never be heard or told to another person. And as most times these are pillows their secrets are kept, but in this case Lad Macbeth has witnesses that have heard her confess. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514995 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514995 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 This small detail shows us that this dream she is having is on the night that she and Macbeth murdered Duncan- as the knocking at the gate would be Macduff's arrival. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514990 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514990 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 The doctor is basically saying that those who have night terrors such as the way Lady Macbeth is presenting, are usually very sick people who do not have long to live, https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514984 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514984 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 Her unconscious mind blames Macbeth for the whole ordeal despite the fact that she coerced him into committing the murder in the first place. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514981 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514981 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 she rubs her hands, hands symbolizing the actions she has committed, and also how she literally had her hands covered in her victim's blood at one point in the play. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514978 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514978 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 The Gentlewoman is the only witness of these nightly terrors from Lady Macbeth, and she is the only word that the doctor can go off on. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514975 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514975 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 Lady Macbeth doesn't sleep walk and talk and act on every night, but tonight she does. https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514971 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158075?scroll_to=1514971 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:54:52 -0400 threats- unusual threats towards those who cannot be harmed by mortal ways. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507520 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507520 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:54 -0400 maybe not the term woman as in the person of female gender, but the part that not matter the year was recognized as womanly. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507517 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507517 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:53 -0400 the prophecies get worse and worse for Macbeth and yet he doesn't address them accordingly. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507511 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507511 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:53 -0400 basically saying: despite the fact that the world is the way that it its- tell me your secret. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507503 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507503 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:53 -0400 Hecate doesn't help with the charm and yet she takes credit and uses it for her benefit. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507501 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507501 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:53 -0400 a way to show how the contents of Macbeth have not aged well completely. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507490 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507490 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:53 -0400 cause and effect- the fires burn (more) and then the contents of the cauldron boiled as a result. https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507488 https://nowcomment.com/documents/157786?scroll_to=1507488 Wed, 22 Jul 2020 15:55:53 -0400 Shakespeare might not of broken the rhyme pattern, but the word itself changed.
