{"product_id":"9783668350458","title":"Women's discourse of power in Shakespeare's \"Macbeth\"","description":"Scientific Essay from the year 2013 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: M.A, , course: Discourse Analysis, language: English, abstract: Women in \"Macbeth\" (i.e., Lady Macbeth and the Witches) speak a strange language that is very similar to what women seek today. This language can be described as antilanguage: a language by which women can direct, control, and dominate men.   This paper introduces a contradictory statement to the current views in discourse analysis, which indicate that women are powerless, trivial, dominated, and sexual objects (Andersen, 1988, Chaika, 1982; Lakoff, 1975) by showing women as powerful, serious, and dominating as men. In doing so, it focuses on the recent views of discourse, power, and women, taking Shakespeare's \"Macbeth\" as a field of application by analyzing Lady Macbeth’s turns of talk.","brand":"GRIN Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46959155806449,"sku":"9783668350458","price":17.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/9783668350458_p0.jpg?v=1765851213","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783668350458","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
