king Edward’s censors report – homework task
I believe that the play Macbeth is unsuitable for public viewing, i have drawn to this conclusion because the acts of treason and betrayal. These acts could provoke acts of pure insanity from the citizens of England, additionally the certain scene makes OUR king Edward seem idiotic and oblivious.
Finally I also believe that the writer of this “play” Shakespeare should be fully prosecuted for conspiring in act of treason, he has done this by implanting thoughts into innocent citizens heads.
I like where you are going with this Tom, picking out the treason and betrayal depicted against Royalty would have perhaps been seen as a shocking comment against their King (James..) who was Scottish (look into this?).
I think you could develop your point with just a little bit more research or evidence about how/why Shakespeare would be committing treason by writing a play about Scottish regicide.
Also: what is the ‘certain scene’?
