Literature is a very broad term. Narrow it down.

History is my long suit, if I have one :)

My gal has been reading 15 to 20 books a year for over 20 years. I will have her post in the evening to a specific point
of interest.

Analyzing it, has anybody ever read "On the Knocking at the Gate in Macbeth" I keep reading it over and over and have no idea what the hell the guy is trying to say.

Just a guess, as I ahve not read it.
The knocking at the gate has many meanings:
one is comical - the drunken porter
the other is the drumbeat, or gavel of doom - MacBeth's unavaodable doom, or fate
a new person is enterign the kingdom - macbeth literally inheritign the kingdom through death
