The Art of Tragedy

Two of the most powerful works in the Western canon — one a study in ambition and moral collapse, the other in disordered love and its consequences. Series 1 asks students to read slowly, narrate faithfully, and begin to write with real argument.

Series 1 · Fall

Macbeth

William Shakespeare

A 15-week literature companion built around Charlotte Mason narration, the DELIGHT analytical framework, and Augustine’s theology of ordered and disordered love. Students read the play closely, narrate weekly, and work toward a full thesis argument by the final weeks. The Honors Track pushes deeper into Shakespeare’s source material and the nature of conscience.
