Answer:
<h3>Scotland.</h3>
Explanation:
The famous tragedy play 'Macbeth" by William Shakespeare takes place in Northern Scotland around the 11th century C.E. The plot revolves around a courageous Scottish general called Macbeth who was prophesized by the witches that he would soon become a noble and then eventually the king of Scotland.
The play involves numerous skirmishes and wars fought by Macbeth with his enemies within the territory of Scotland in an attempt to rule the land and its people. However, it ends tragically with the death of Macbeth. Thus, the answer is Scotland.
Answer:
Stage 1, Infancy:A helpless baby, just crying and throwing up.
Stage 2, Schoolboy:This is where his formal education starts but he is not entirely happy with school. His mother is ambitious for him and has washed his face thoroughly before sending him off to school but he goes very slowly and reluctantly.
Stage 3, Teenager:He’s grown into his late teens and his main interest is girls. He’s likely to make a bit of a fool of himself with them. He is sentimental, sighing and writing poems to girls, making himself a bit ridiculous.
Stage 4, Young man:He’s a bold and fearless soldier – passionate in the causes he’s prepared to fight for and quickly springs into action.
Stage 5, Middle-aged:He regards himself as wise and experienced and doesn’t mind sharing his views and ideas with anyone and likes making speeches. He’s made a name for himself and is prosperous and respected. As a result of his success, he’s become vain. He enjoys the finer things in life, like good food.
Stage 6, Old man:He is old and nothing like his former self – physically or mentally. He looks and behaves like an old man, dresses like one and he has a thin piping voice now. His influence slips away.
Stage 7, Dotage and death:He loses his mind in senility. His hair and teeth fall out and his sight goes. Then he loses everything as he almost sinks into death.
I agree with Shakespeare’s division of life into seven stages as everyone passes from these stages .
Flashbacks: The Story of the Flood is told in the form of a flashback. In this case the story is used to explain parts of the plot and to pull the reader deeper into the story. Another use of flashback can be seen when Enkidu relates to Gilgamesh his dream that foretells his own death. In this case it is used as a plot device to foreshadow Enkidu's death.
<span>Repetition: "After two leagues the darkness was thick and there was no light, he could see nothing ahead and nothing behind him. After three leagues the darkness was thick, and there was no light, he could see nothing ahead and nothing behind him. At the end of five leagues the darkness was thick and there was no light, he could see nothing ahead and nothing behind him. At the end of six leagues the darkness was thick and there was no light, he could see nothing ahead and nothing behind him. When he had gone seven leagues the darkness was thick and there was no light, he could see nothing ahead and nothing behind him. When he had gone eight leagues Gilgamesh gave a great cry, for the darkness was thick and he could see nothing ahead and nothing behind him." </span>
<span>Another example of the repetition of the exact phrasing is when the youth tells his father about sighting Enkidu then runs of to find Gilgamesh and tells him what the youth told his father word for word. </span>
<span>Imagery: The Imagery of the Forest is very important. Our two heroes, Gilgamesh and Enkidu must pass through this intimidating and dangerous forest to validate their heroism and slay the monster Humbaba. This imagery could represent several different things. Often forest imagery is used to represent danger. In this case it probably represents the heroes' dangerous rite of passage.</span>
