- As events close in on Macbeth, he seems almost to have lost his humanity. “I have almost forgot the taste of
fears,” he states (9). Does his reaction to Lady Macbeth's death and his soliloquy at 5.5.17 restore some of that
humanity or confirm his utter loss of it? Use direct textual examples to support your opinion. - Offer a comparative reading of the two performances of this soliloquy. Which aspects of the delivery are
successful? Which are not? How does each version impact your understanding of Macbeth's state of mind at
this point in the play?
