🎭 Shakespearean Deep Dive: Power, Identity, and Moral Collapse
In this comprehensive session, we explore the intricate character arcs and thematic shifts in three of William Shakespeare’s most iconic plays: Macbeth, Twelfth Night, and The Merchant of Venice. We analyze how the pursuit of power, the use of disguise, and the tension between justice and mercy shape the destinies of heroes and villains alike.

📌 Session Highlights

The Fall of a Tyrant (Macbeth): Trace Macbeth’s journey from a "noble warrior" to a "ruthless tyrant." We discuss his internal conflict, the role of Lady Macbeth in his moral collapse, and how his "black and deep desires" lead to an hollow, emotionally numb end.

The Wickedness of Disguise (Twelfth Night): Explore how Viola’s transformation into "Cesario" creates a chaotic love triangle while allowing for deeper sincerity. We examine the frustration of hidden identity and how truth eventually brings a happy ending.

The Courtroom Clash (The Merchant of Venice): Contrast the rigid legalism of Shylock with Portia’s appeal for mercy. Learn how Portia uses Shylock's own logic to save Antonio and why "the quality of mercy" is essential to a functioning society.

The Architecture of Power: A comparative look at how power is gained and lost. Whether it is through treason (Macbeth), legal manipulation (Shylock), or social adaptability (Viola), we reveal why some paths lead to ruin and others to restoration.

Women in a Man’s World: Analysis of the intelligence and influence of Lady Macbeth, Portia, and Viola. We discuss how they navigate social constraints—ranging from Lady Macbeth’s psychological power to Viola’s quiet wit.
