Socratic Semenar

Here are some main points of the discussion:

- You can tell what is going to happen during the shakespeare palys
- It is hard to read Shakespearean language
- It is very suspenseful
- Very fast paced, and it makes it hard to follow
- Femenism with Lady Macbeth
- She has a little of femenism, yet there is very little
- She is the master mind behind killings
- She should not be a role model
- She takes feminism to the extreme
- Paris Hilton is not a good role model, yet she knows how to work the system
- Because of money she is high status
- She does everything and she is unsucssesful
- Mothers are good role models and celebrities are not because they were never there for you
- Oprah is just a huge power source
- She does nice things, yet I think she does it for attention
- She gives away money like it grows on trees
- There are stereotypes for men and women regarding power
- Men are said to be strong
- Women are said to be sexual



Comments

- Today we do not get many people who help the needy, we see a rich person like Oprah and we feel like she is doing it for attention
-There is a definite stereotype for both men and women regarding power, and Paris Hilton really relates to it
- I do not feel bad for Macbeth, because his greed for power took over his commen sense.
- I would not like to hear my futrue because I would be thinking about my every step
- Todays semenar really showed that Lady Macbeth did not relate to society today. People like Paris Hilton find so many other ways to find power than plotting to kill people .
