麦克白剧情英文简介及人物分析

Macbeth《麦克白》1、Background2、Synopsis3、CentralideaandCharactersanalysisBackground麦克白苏格兰王国国王：在位时间：1040年---1057年葬于：伊俄纳岛麦克白（Macbeth,盖尔语（Gaelic）MacBethadmacFindlaich,1005年---1057年8月15日），是公元十一世纪欧洲苏格兰王国的国王在位17年。麦克白是莫瑞地区的贵族，其母亲出生自苏格兰的王室，故而他也有王室血统和继承王位的可能。1020年，麦克白的父亲在战争中丧生，麦克白接管了莫瑞地区的势力。1034年在位30年的马尔科姆（Malcolm）二世去世其外孙邓肯（Duncan）一世继位。Background邓肯一世统治的最后几年战争不断，与境外许多地方势力发生冲突，最开始没有反对邓肯一世继承权的麦克白逐渐产生不满。1040年，邓肯一世率领军队进入麦克白掌管的莫瑞地区，双方交战，邓肯一世被杀。麦克白战胜邓肯一世后以王室后裔的身份继任苏格兰王国国王，国内有很多人不满意这次继位，但是他的统治也持续了17年。Background1052年后，麦克白经常与英格兰王国发生冲突，屡屡失利。1057年，邓肯一世之子马尔科姆为父报仇，马尔科姆在战场上杀死了麦克白。麦克白死后，卢拉赫继位，不久后被马尔科姆谋杀，此后马尔科姆三世继位。麦克白这个历史人物之所以出名，主要是有大师莎士比亚的同名悲剧，不过在戏中，麦克白扮演的是谋权篡位的反面角色。Briefsynopsisoftheplay1.charactersinthestory:★Macbeth★KingDuncan★LadyMacbeththeKing’sons----Malcolm马尔康和道纳本★Threewitches★Macduff麦克德夫Banquo班柯andhissonBriefsynopsisofthestory2.briefsynopsis:MacbethGenerals(将军)BanquoBriefsynopsisoftheplayKnightofGlamis葛莱密斯爵士ThreewitchesKnightofCort考特爵士TheKingBanquo’soffspringThemessenger:kingDuncandubbedhimKnightofCortBriefsynopsisoftheplayKingDuncanLadyMacbethservantsMacduffEngland(Malcolm)KingDuncan’ssonsIrelandBriefsynopsisoftheplayProphecymadebythethreewitchesKnightofGlamis葛莱密斯爵士KnightofCort考特爵士TheKingBanquo’soffspringBriefsynopsisoftheplayMacbethKillBanquoThreewitches1、他不会被人打败，除非有一天勃南的树林会冲着他向邓西嫩高山移动；2、没有一个妇人所生下的人可以伤害麦克白,除非不是人胎正常生出来的孩子,才能杀得了他；3、提醒他要留心Macduff（麦克德夫）。BriefsynopsisoftheplayMacduff：wasexiled(流放)MacbethkilledallthepeopleintheMacduff’scastleincludinghiswifeandson.LadyMacbeth：Shewastorturedbytheguiltofwhattheyhaddoneandwentmad.BriefsynopsisoftheplayInEngland,Malcolm(马尔康)andMacduffplannedtotakedownMacbethandrecapturedtheScotland.HowcouldtheykillMacbeth?麦克德夫带领一支有伪装的军队,与马尔康及英格兰人西华德诺森伯兰伯爵同赴邓西嫩堡,马尔康的军队砍下树木,伪装为移动的树林而前进Briefsynopsisoftheplaythefirstprophecymadebythethreewitches.他不会被人打败，除非有一天勃南的树林会冲着他向邓西嫩高山移动.Thewarstarted.MacbethandMacduffMacbethsaid:BriefsynopsisoftheplayHedidn’tneedtobeafraidofMacduffThesecondprophecymadebythewitches:没有一个妇人所生下的人可以伤害麦克白,除非不是人胎正常生出来的孩子,才能杀得了他.Macdufftoldhimhewasbornbycaesarean[sɪ‘zɛrɪən]section（剖腹产).MalcolmbecametheKingofScotland.Characteranalysis—Macbeth1、abraveandcapablewarrior2、consumingambition●struggleformastery3、self-doubt●thepredictionthathewillbekingbringshimjoy,butitalsocreatesinnerturmoil.Characteranalysis—Macbeth●BeforehekillsDuncan,Macbethisplaguedbyworryandalmostabortsthecrime.IttakesLadyMacbeth’ssteelysenseofpurposetopushhimintothedeed4、agoodhusbandCharacteranalysis—Macbeth5、guiltandpessimism(悲观厌世)●momentsofterribleguilt；●aseriesofmurderstosecurehisthrone；●afterhiswife’sdeath,heseemstosuccumbtodespairCharacteranalysis—LadyMacbethLadyMacbethisoneofShakespeare’smostfamousandfrighteningfemalecharacters.Whenwefirstseeher,sheisalreadyplottingDuncan’smurder,andsheisstronger,moreruthless,andmoreambitiousthanherhusband.SheseemsfullyawareofthisandknowsthatshewillhavetopushMacbethintocommittingmurder…Characteranalysis—LadyMacbethThisthemeoftherelationshipbetweengenderandpoweriskeytoLadyMacbeth’scharacter:herhusbandimpliesthatsheisamasculinesoulinhabitingafemalebody,whichseemstolinkmasculinitytoambitionandviolence…Characteranalysis—LadyMacbethThesecraftywomenusefemalemethodsofachievingpower—thatis,manipulation(操纵)—tofurthertheirmaleambitions.Women,theplayimplies,canbeasambitiousandcruelasmen,yetsocialconstraintsdenythemthemeanstopursuetheseambitionsontheirown.Characteranalysis—LadyMacbethSheinstigates(教唆)MacbethtokillKingDuncanandsteadiesherhusband’snervesimmediatelyafterthecrime.However,shegraduallyfallsintomadness.LadyMacbeth’ssensitivityandguiltbecomeaweakness,andsheisunabletocopeandkillsherselfintheend.Intheend最毒妇人心！
