Macbeth, one of the best known works of William Shakespeare, is a tragedy in five acts, written in prose and verse, which was probably composed around 1606 and released shortly thereafter. It was first published in 1623, in the edition known as the First Folio. Macbeth is a tragedy about treachery and ambition. There is no absolute assurance that the tragedy in whole Shakespeare, as some claim that certain passages could be later additions playwright Thomas Middleton, whose book The Witch (The witch) has many affinities with Macbeth. The play is loosely based on the story of the life of a historical figure, Macbeth, who was King of Scots between 1040 and 1057. The main source of Shakespeare to this tragedy were the chronicles of Raphael Holinshed, work which extracted also the arguments of his historical works. Holinshed was based in turn on Gentis Scotorum History (History of Scots), written in Latin by the Scottish author Hector Boece and first printed in Paris in 1527. To please his patrons work, King James V of Scotland, Boece had deliberately obscured the figure of Macbeth, in order to exalt a hypothetical ancestor of the king, Banquo. Importantly, the text comes to us only through the First Folio, unlike other works of Shakespeare in some editions are also kept in "quarters", approved by the author and some others from the work of memorillos. Some current criticism argues that, given the lower extension of this work in relation to other tragedies Folio can be argued that what has come to us is a summary of the complete works of Shakespeare, also justified by the existence of certain passages dark in the text that give the impression you require additional information to be interpreted within the context of the work.The application has an ePub reader so you can read books on your device.
