    This is a fascinating perspective on the events and the didacticism of Macbeth. It is quite different from what we usually focus on in my school. While our perspective is highly tied to Shakespeare's message to never consider regecide, the exact details of who may and why they may wish to kill King James have not been considered the same way you have considered them. Very enjoyable watch, this will be tremendously helpful in preparation for my exam : ).

    yo sir, can u read this response to the same question. i am in year 10 preparing 4 my mocks:
    In Act 1, Scene 1 Banquo is presented by Shakespeare to be morally superior to Macbeth, exercising the Christian standpoint towards the supernatural during the Jacobean Era. Banquo warns Macbeth, “And oftentimes, to win us to our harm. The instrument of darkness tell us truths; Win us with honest trifles, to betrays In deepest consequence.” The adverb, “oftentimes” highlights how the witch’s sole purpose is to wreak havoc upon their victims. The metaphor, “Instruments of darkness” reveals connotation towards a game-like setting, presenting how supernatural view human activities and actions to be superficial and meaningless, showing to the reader their Machiavellian and vindictive nature. They are a conduit to which the devil works. The juxtaposition between the words, “honest” and “betrays” portray how the witches lack moral compass, but also to typify Banquo’s logical thinking. Banquo has the right attitudes towards supernatural forces, a view commonly held within the Jacobean audience. Banquo’s words are prophetic, as the declaim exactly what will happen in the play, and what his accomplice Macbeth is oblivious to. Shakespeare deploys Banquo is such a positive light to reinforce to the audience the character of a person who has good morals. Additionally, Banquo was believed to be a descendant of King James, so in painting him as this “good” character, it appeases James I and hopefully gains patronage for Shakespeare. However, it could be argued that Banquo isn’t entirely moral as seen in Act 2, Scene 1 where he appears to debate on the legitimacy of Macbeth’s kingship, as he remarks, “I fear thou play’dst most foully for it”. It is evident that, Banquo acknowledges Macbeth’s disruption of The Divine Right of Kings but refuses to act upon it. He doesn’t relay his suspicions to any of the other nobles. This may be because Banquo stands to gain from Macbeth’s position, because as revealed by the “three weird sisters” his descendants will be kings. Shakespeare may have constructed Banquo’s demise to illustrate to the audience that good and evil cannot exist synonymously, and that one must go.
    Additionally, Shakespeare employs Banquo as a FOIL to exemplify the negative qualities of Macbeth. Earlier in Act 1, Scene 3 Banquo remarks, “I neither beg of, no fear your favours”. Here, we can see that Banquo’s scepticism, highlighting his nobility. This juxtaposes Macbeth’s reaction to the supernatural prophecies, as he remains relatively unfazed, in full acknowledgement of the witch’s ill intent. Shakespeare borrowed the Character of Banquo from Raphael Holinshed’s Chronicles in 1587, where Banquo was an accomplice of Macbeth in favour of the king’s murder. Shakespeare subverts this earlier negative Banquo, and presents him in a positive light, serving as an exemplar to the audience, that it is possible to resist temptations from supernatural forces, in case any Elizabethan people had encountered them. Banquo was believed to be a descendant of King James I, so in accentuating Banquo’s Christian qualities, he dismisses any suspicious regarding him. Around this time, Shakespeare was rumoured to be allegiance with the Gunpowder Plot, due to his friends also being involved. So, in constructing Banquo in his manner, he shows his devotion to the King.
    In Stark Contrast to Banquo, Macbeth appears to be consumed by the witches’ prophecies, celebrating their good promise. Macbeth declaims in an aside, “Two truth are told[..] Cannot be ill, cannot be good”. The phrase, “Two truths” highlight Macbeth’s certainty in the witches’ prophecies, as one has already come true. The syntactic parallelism within the phrase, “Cannot be ill, cannot be good” highlight Macbeth’s inner confliction, and mental instability. This evokes Macbeth to be cemented within the depths of the witches’ prophecies. Additionally, the personification through phrase “And make my seated heart knock at my ribs” reemphasizes Macbeth’s anxieties. The verb, “knock” publishes connections towards unknowingness and ambiguity, highlighting that Macbeth’s “vaulting ambition” has not yet become apparent to him. Also, Macbeth demands “Stay you imperfect speakers” in reference to the witches. The imperative verb, “stay” highlights his desperation for answers within the witches, furthering the connection between Macbeth and supernatural forces.
    Finally, Macbeth’s accelerated paranoia has proven to be too much for him to handle, as he sees Banquo’s ghost at the banquet. Macbeth exclaims, “Never shake thy gory locks at me”, presenting him to be visions as a manifestation of this guilt due to inference within the affairs of the supernatural. However, due to Macbeth’s immense shock and due to Banquo’s ghost, and not the witches (malicious entities) highlight his opposition towards goodness, and reemphasise his submersion within the supernatural, and his irredeemable conscience as he has committed the cardinal sin of regicide. When Macbeth’s demise becomes apparent, he refers to the witches as “juggling fiends” evoking the witches Machiavellian stronghold to have left him, and he is now is a position of helplessness, as the “three weird sisters” game has ended and have won him to his harm.

  • @AAAAAHHHHHHHASAAA
    @AAAAAHHHHHHHASAAA 2 года назад

    which are better points for this question?
    Banquo is punished for interacting with the witches (“speak then to me”) dies a violent death to save his fate (sacrificing himself for fleance) like Macbeth. He interacts before the play begins (“I dreamt last night of the three weird sisters” despite them meeting *that afternoon….* or so we think.) Shakespeare makes this to warn that anyone, even the best, can fall victim to the supernatural.
    Banquo chooses to not listen (“i dreamt last night of the three weird sisters” “take my sword”) and takes revenge against macbeth by making him admit guilt, and seal his fate. The witches never make Macbeth do anything (“crowned without spur”) and he knows this, but his love of violence drives him to kill still (despite believing not needing to, he decides to kill macduff “thou shalt not live”. arrogant and violent.) giving banquo motivation for revenge and macduff motivation to overthrow him

    In the cautionary tale of 'Macbeth', Shakespeare explores the duality of the protagonist Macbeth and his internal conflict which leads to his downfall. Shakespeare creates a cautionary tale of power, greed and the innate flaw of human impressionability within this character to warn a Jacobean audience against regicide.

      Easy goes the language for a student trying to write and let me better your mind by not having to think of the words students who write for their writing to be viewed by those that can grade for the betterment of learning
      Not combating thing mentality in the classroom learning or personal religious beliefs of women not being able to speak
      Not my religion and your tone is not classroom tone so the abbreviation of a thing like the question about writing errors is not of your religious belief for you pounder in thought if you are not of a professor qualified in which I believe you not to be from your abbreviated question have a good day to be a better human being with questions not even regarding the too much of a man's masculinity of thought
      Those thoughts are more so for females to sort from associated picture art which is a whole class too if you did not know that is a form of learning too as an actual classroom learning with English too
      Art learning is not your contribution and maybe it is something that describes your anger of not being able to relate because your composer of word choice does not sea drive anyone who would even want to know what is that close in whatever it is you do not have
      Anger management seems more appropriate for you and there are classrooms for that too before asking questions relayed to what someone says not about your religion
      Trafficking thoughts is a firm of trafficking which your kind of mind is so good at, but not me, not my studies that too many of you are skilled at
      Not of you and don't know you that I know of and don't prefer to know such ignorance of words choice
      Art of writing says any words are acceptable in describing a human being representing a relationship of a kind in the human setting
      My words are too bitter after such learning better abbreviation to ado question or questions that do not have to be answered but since it's a classroom
      Learn in it and my educational studies of earned credits for assisting students to better learn with studying to make better grades assisting adult learners
      You are one I shall not assist until making the grades in everyone is not your woman to inquire your religious mental trafficking too
      You are no different than an abuser and guys who want the attention to your kind of thinking which is considered guys who HF have professions from what females say and think
      You have the person with your guy's club of evil to seek females that do not so each in such abbreviation to respond to a guy that is a guy who seems leisure of words for women or shall I say, females words
      You are the worse of men's kind from just your words that you want to make it more difficult for females to not know of your terms
      And, or respective
      Traffic your thoughts, not mine! I would prefer to say the first of words to you but I do not even know if you know how they derive in your mind of defectiveness of others and your self of course
      A course of your abbreviation, shorthand, or slang for me is in your mind...
      I don't like who you think you can be with anyone in any conversation without knowing what is going on, while people try to study and not trying to study you or your abbreviation of trying to traffic the human mind that behinds to evil religions that speak for other men to be their men, maids, not either!
      A mental illness and if you want to learn about the mind try studying physically people of its mind, not human society because the choice of your words is not art in any way shape, or form in writing to do better
      Next, you say, as always without knowing who you could be but not anyone I know

      Do teach people how to know to talk to adults and all adults, all humans, and how
      not to abbreviate everything to have only a language for cluster thoughts
      It's sickening it's confusing people's thoughts and trying to explain why to people who know why they need to better their grades instead of constantly focusing on everyone else around them
      It's so frustrating there are not enough words to explain the need for education in certain realms of society

      You should purchase a book on war issues in communication and believe the learning video chat room you say these things has an assortment of this kind of fight to read and write in communication
      I am not sure but I believe you are referring to how to combat words and that too is another reason the comment was made to let students know of your kind of bullies...
      Have a good day and whatever you're going the with communication but all people are not bullies in communication
      You too could be suffering from the number of bullies out there in society that learn from those kinds of facilities for learning to receive belts for communicating
      The English language takes years and years of studying and tries not to let anyone convince you differently and be able to say not even a fraction of what those enemies say in their sail combination to belittle others in communication from other sources than the style of communication that should be learned not for bullying in everyday communication
      Again, Have a good day I did not want to be this be as crude as your abbreviation that could mean too many things but it's about bullies something you make comfortable for some odd reason
      Learn about those students bullied and know your enemies are with them not those who learn English as it should be learned, not for a belt of too many different kinds of bully belts...
