Subject: Lincoln / Macbeth
I was told recently that Abraham Lincoln was a Shakespeare enthusiast,
with Macbeth his favorite play--but my informant remembered this from
some forgotten source
Does anyone know of some treatment of this? They're a fine combination:
WS himself would have been proud to have written the Second Inaugural.
