3 possible AP prompts

1. Macbeth laments for misdeeds he has committed while Hamlet struggles with the idea of his choices to come.Compare Macbeth's soliloquy to Hamlet's and the differences intheir situations.

2. Several strange occurrences happen the night the Macbeth kills Duncan.  Horses eat themselves, the earth trembles, a storm brews.  How do these parallel the dark deeds of the night? Why does Shakespeare and other authors use other events to foreshadow or parallel a plot development?

3. Macbeth must act as if he is terribly grieved by the death of Duncan.  In a well developed essay using textual examples, compare and contrast Macbeth's situation to one where a character from another novel that you have read must act in order to cover their furtive actions.
