14. Detection Word Substitution or Alteration Macbeth Manuscript from the internet Macbeth is presented as a mature man of definitely established character, successful in certain fields of activity and enjoying an enviable reputation. We must not conclude, there, that all his volitions and actions are predictable; Macbeth's character, like any other man's at a given moment, is what is being made out of potentialities plus environment, and no one, not even Macbeth himself, can know all his inordinate self-love whose actions are discovered to be-and no doubt have been for a long time- determined mainly by an inordinate desire for some temporal or mutable good. Same manuscript with modified words Macbeth is shown as an empowered man of well-established character, prosperous in several fields of life and enjoying an esteemed reputation. We mustn't conclude, therefore, that all of his volitions and actions will be foreseeable; Macbeth's essence, like most other men at any given time, is what's being created out of potentialities and his environment, and no one, not even Macbeth himself, can discern all his immoderate self-love whose behaviors are found to be-and without doubt have been for some time- determined primarily by an extreme desire for a temporal or changeable good.

15. Macbeth Manuscript from the internet Macbeth is presented as a mature man of definitely established character, successful in certain fields of activity and enjoying an enviable reputation. We must not conclude, there, that all his volitions and actions are predictable; Macbeth's character, like any other man's at a given moment, is what is being made out of potentialities plus environment, and no one, not even Macbeth himself, can know all his inordinate self-love whose actions are discovered to be-and no doubt have been for a long time-determined mainly by an inordinate desire for some temporal or mutable good. Modified paper (from previous slide) + added content Shakespeare's famous play, Macbeth, is one of his great tragedies based around the classic theme of the hero's fatal flaw. Macbeth is presented as a mature man of definitely established character, successful in certain fields of activity and enjoying an enviable reputation. Yet, like any man, he is human, and thus in possession of flaw and foibles, hidden that they may be from public eye, and hinted at by foreshadow only by the author. We must not conclude, there, that all his volitions and actions are predictable; Macbeth's character, like any other man's at a given moment, is what is being made out of potentialities plus environment, and no one, not even Macbeth himself, can know all his inordinate self-love whose actions are discovered to be-and no doubt have been for a long time- determined mainly by an inordinate desire for some temporal or mutable good. This desire being so strong under certain circumstances as to override all others, even, as is usually the case in tragedy, the ultimate desire of self- preservation.

36. http:// www.elearning.port.ac.uk/elearning/turnitin/crib%20sheets/pdf/Interpreting%20Turnitin%20Scores.pdf Do I have to get a score of zero to avoid being accused of plagiarism? No. Small fragments and phrases or bits of references are not a problem. Lecturers really only look for large chucks of text that have been copied verbatim without attribution (that means without any reference being cited). How much would I have to copy to be guilty of plagiarism? There’s no set figure in the University Regulations, it just says, a “substantial amount” and the interpretation of this has to be made by your lecturer in the context of the work. What if I copied a lot of material but put it in speech marks and gave references? Would that be OK? Not really, it wouldn’t be plagiarism but it would be poor scholarship since you would simply be presenting the work of others without adding much of your own. This would result in a lower mark and perhaps even a fail. So how much of a piece of work should consist of quoted material? There’s no answer to that, it depends very much on the subject matter and format. I generally advise my students when they write essays that the work should not have more than 10% of quoted material, but this is a guide not a rule and what is appropriate may vary between subject and assignments.
