Macbeth and the Fall of Soul

News and Announcements| Symposium

On Thursday, October 16, from 6-8pm ET, members of the Lyceum Institute will gather to discuss the beginning of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth under the guidance of Dr. Mark McCullough, who is providing us lectures and readings to focus our understanding.

There is much that we can learn from this great tragedy—and here we will focus on the impact of imagination, moral uncertainty, and the fall of soul that follows internal turmoil.

Is this a dagger which I see before me,
The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.
I have thee not, and yet I see thee still.
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible
To feeling as to sight? or art thou but
A dagger of the mind, a false creation,
Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?

Participation is freely available to all enrolled members! The discussion will be recorded and saved in our archives, as well.
