Classical and Biblical Allusions in Macbeth

Click here to access a simple guide to some of the main classical and biblical allusions in Macbeth.  I’ve selected ten in total:

• A1-S2 (Golgotha; Bellona)
• A2-S1 (Hecate; Tarquin)
• A2-S2 (Neptune)
• A2-S3 (Gorgon)
• A3-S1 (Caesar)
• A4-S3 (Lucifer)
• A5-S8 (Roman fool; hell-hound)

I put together a similar document for Jekyll and Hyde in May.  To access it, click here.
