Macbeth


            
            
            
            
             In the beginning of Act 4, Macbeth uses dance, ritual charm, and the highlight of evil to intensify the event. The entire ceremony is described so that impending doom would be intensified. .
             2. The witches make a potion in a large cauldron, out of which three prophecies appear. The were a floating head that said, " beware Macduff." The second was a bloody child that said only person that wasn't " of woman born," can destroy Macbeth. The third was a crowned child that told Macbeth that no one could take him down until the Birnam Woods moved to Donalbain Hill. The most immediately dangerous one is the prophecy that told Macbeth to fear Macduff. This is most dangerous because it's the easiest to understand and it's what is expected. With this, again , the witches provoked Macbeth into doing more evil acts. .
             3. Macbeth deliberately searched out the witches because he felt they could give him a prophecy that would help his ease his fear of Macduff's whereabouts. .
             4. Macbeth is growing more and more evil as the play progresses,and killing Macduff's innocent and harmless family is what shows how evil and greedy he has truly gotten. .
             5. Ross's appearance at Macduff's castle represents a weakening of Macbeth's position because, his visit shows and tells of the unity of people to fight against Macbeth. This conversation is one of strength. .
             6. The murder of Macduff's family is different from the murder of Banquo because Banquo was murdered and Fleance got away. In the murder of Macduff's family they were both killed. .
             7. Everything that the witches prophesized ended up coming true. It's ironic that the prophecy of him becoming king came true and so did each one of the bad ones. It's also ironic that he paid so much attention to the prophecies that benefited him and ignored the ones that told him he could be destroyed. When the Macduff revealed himself as the prophesized conqueror, it seemed too perfect.
