Produktbeschreibung
The study attempts to approach the character of Macbeth from a new perspective in which Macbeth is examined as a colonizer rather than just a tyrant. To achieve this, the dissertation relies first and foremost on Edward Said's concept of contrapuntal reading. Furthermore, the study is not only concerned with unraveling the imperial powers hidden in the play, but also with the psychological dimension embedded in both discourses. Examining the function of narratives techniques reflects both postcolonial and psychological dimensions and consequently reveals how these techniques are re-contextualized in the film. This comparative study between the original play and the film adaptation therefore, focuses on the re-contextualization of postcolonial and psychoanalytical narrative techniques in the cinematic discourse highlighting the functions of camera angle shots, sound effects and lighting, in inspecting how race, culture and colonization played a significant role in reflecting all dimensions that are related to the downfall of the character of Macbeth.
