Shakespeare intitulée Macbeth

« DEVOIR 2 ANGLAIS PARTIE 1 Le document soumis à notre étude est un audio raconté par une femme.

Cette femme évoque dans le document une pièce de William Shakespeare intitulée Macbeth.

Cette tragédie regroupant des thèmes dérangeants et violents raconte l’histoire d’un noble écossais du 11ème siècle qui est poussé par sa femme à voler le trône commettant ainsi des actes de terreurs et d’une grande violence.

Whilst the image represents a period of history, the quote englobes in a more general way History and its meaning. .

I suppose that to study the History fields, you must interrogate yourself on History, its meaning, to analyze it from all its angles and being able to understand the periods that compose it.

So I think that David McCullough shared his thought on the matter for this reason. The diversity of races in society reflects our differences.

Each individual has a different identity from another, our ways of interacting with others are not the same as are our thoughts.

This diversity results from several factors; these include education, environment, and culture.
