Originally published in 1991. Collecting together commentary and
critique on 'the Scottish play', this book showcases varied
discussions of the text and the theatrical productions. From Samuel
Johnson's brief 1765 comment to the editor's own piece on the
Porter's scene, the texts included here are popular important
accounts of thoughts and scholarship on the play over the years.
Some pieces address the most famous early Lady Macbeth - Mrs
Siddons, while others look at a theme or specific issue such as
Lady Macbeth's children. This is a great sample of the voluminous
body of work looking at the tragedy, considering its images,
symbols, meanings and its challenges for the stage.
