When looking at these definitions together, it seems that they share a common relation to effort/p>
Many of the poems relate to the idea of time being outside of our control. Because these words are tied to the idea of wanting to control something, they are in contrast with the poems’ themes.

Practice

Rising Action Events:
In Act 1, the rising action event consists of Macbeth deciding to kill the King after speaking to his wife and hearing the prophecy of the witches.

Rising Action Events:
In Act II, the rising action mainly entails Macbeth killing King Duncan. His sons react, and the people of the castle talk of ominous symbols and harrowing predictions.

Rising Action Events:
During Act III, the conflict rises even further when Macbeth tries to kill Duncan’s children to secure his prophecy. He fails (only killing one of them) and his guilt takes the form or an apparition of Banquo himself.

The events are linked by cause and effect because Macbeth’s actions are directly influenced by the events before them. Due to the prophecy made at the beginning of Act I, the events in Acts II and III are effects of Macbeth’s desire to make the prophecy come true (or subsequently avoid the negative effects of the witch’s predictions, such as the rise to power of Banquo’s son). Macbeth acts with motivations to influence his own future. An example of this is the need to kill Banquo because he had already killed the King and the prophecy warned of Duncan’s bloodline.

Crisis/Turning Point of Act III:
The turning point of Act III is when the ghost of Banquo appears as a vision to Macbeth while he is gathered with his friends. This event leads those with him to suspect him of malice and his facade is broken. During this scene he is at his weakest and most vulnerable, and those close to him start suspecting his guilt and planning attack.

Predictions:
The reader might predict that Macbeth will have a downfall in the coming acts. He seems to be on the verge of his lies catching up with him, and his state of being crumbling. Most likely, the actions of Macbeth will begin to cause him tragedy.

Assignment

This exercise requires you to read a speech from the text (chosen in example 1) to reflect the feelings of the character who said it. In this exercise, the tone and rhythm of speech can reflect how the character will feel in making his/her point.

Choose a Sp>

An example of a speech you could use is the speech in which Lady Macbeth argues for Macbeth’s friends to leave the castle when Macbeth sees Banquo’s ghost and almost admits to his murder. This line of dialogue happens near the end of Act III.

Analyze the Sp>

Analyze the sp>
Point of view: Lady Macbeth knows the actions of Macbeth, and how he is frail due to his guilty conscience. Therefore, this speech comes loaded with subtext toward the attitude of her husband’s manhood.

Reasoning: For this question, refer to the speech section in Exercise 1. Lady Macbeth reasons with the table that Macbeth’s actions must be the case of an illness, for why else would he feel such a strange way towards Banquo and the guests. Lady Macbeth feels the only appropriate way out of this mess would be to fake Macbeth as being sick.

Word Choice: For this question, refer to the speech section in Exercise 1. Lady Macbeth’s use of the term “displaced mirth” to settle her guests and remain polite while in the same breath insulting Macbeth’s behavior. She additionally uses the word “enraged” to make Macbeth seem unapproachable, so that his friends will not ask him incriminating questions while he is in such a vulnerable state.

Emphasis: For this question, refer to the speech section in Exercise 1. The main emphasis in Lady Macbeth’s dialogue is to make an excuse so that Macbeth and the guests can part ways without any worse behavior being displayed.

Links Between ideas: For this question, refer to the speech section in Exercise 1. Lady Macbeth uses logical reasoning to explain why her guests should leave the castle. She explains that because Macbeth has “displaced the mirth” of the evening and he is “enraged” that is guests should leave immediately.

Rehearse the Recitation

Rehearse: With a partner, try to memorize the speech that Lady Macbeth makes on page 307, as shown in Exercise 1.

Present the Recitation

Present: using the prompt on page 312, present the speech to communicate clearly the dialogue and intentions of Lady Macbeth

Lead A Discussion

Discussion: In discussion, it might be helpful to mention the intentions of Lady Macbeth towards her guests (respect, courtesy) in conflict with her feelings toward Macbeth (hostility, shame, fear).

Media Connection

In most of the Act I, it seems as though the witches spark a thought that Lady Macbeth elaborates on to the point of completion. When the witches suggest that Macbeth will become the “Thane of Cawdor”, it evokes mostly confusion and wonder from Macbeth. However, Lady Macbeth makes a commitment to reject her womanhood in order to kill the king. It is her ultimate argument, and plead that his manhood will not be retained if the King lives, that makes Macbeth go through with the killing.

As the witches complete their predictions in Scene i of Act IV, they finish by “charming the air” and performing a circular dance right before Lennox enters, as they know that he is arriving. When they eventually vanish, Lennox is not able to see them while Macbeth insists that they were there. (pg 319)

During Scene ii of Act iv, Lady Macduff is angry at her husband for fleeing their estate and leaving her alone. Ross consoles her by suggesting that she doesn’t understand how dire the situation is, and that he is only gone for a good reason, as he knows the, “The fits o’ th’ seasons”, pg 321.

By the end of Act iv, Macduff and Malcolm conspire to kill Macbeth for being unfit and undeserving of the throne. Macduff tells Malcolm, “Fit to govern. No, not fit to live!”(325) after Macbeth killed Macduff’s family to protect his throne. Malcolm agrees that, although it is a horrible thing, he is sworn to do what is best for his country, even after being tempted by Macduff over his loyalty and Macolm’s own desire to possibly take the throne. The two agree that Macbeth must be removed from power.

In Act IV of Macbeth, the witches come to give another round of prophecies that lead Macbeth to vow fully to act upon instinct for the rest of the play. He will no longer deal with moral dilemma or ethics, but by his heart. In another castle, Lady Macduff expresses suspicions at her husband being gone for so long before murderers sent by Macbeth come to slay her son. When this news reaches Macduff, who is conspiring with Malcolm, they both vow to bring war to Macbeth.

The three prophecy that the witches predict are that 1) Macbeth will become King of Scotland, 2) that he will also be named Thane of Cawdor, and 3) That Banquo’s heirs will be kings.

Lady Macbeth fears that Macbeth is not up for the task of killing the king when he is their guest. This act would fulfill the witches prophecy, which is what she wants. She worries that Macbeth will be, “It is too full o’ th’ milk of human kindness (270), and not kill the king.

ACT 1: Three witches introduce the audience to a character called Macbeth, who is a soldier that is slated to become the next “Thane of Cawdor”. Later, when Macbeth returns from battle and disembowelment, he and his friends discuss the prophecy and the expectations, in which the current Thane of Cawdor was killed for being a traitor. A character named the Captain goes off to be treated, and Macbeth has plans to have King Duncan as a guest. His wife, Lady Macbeth, initiated an idea to kill the king, and gives herself over to the witch’s power. She convinces Macbeth to kill the king, citing his manhood and power, and Macbeth ultimately gives in.

Research to Clarify

Example: In researching the word “thane” it is defined as a person who owns land directly from the King, and was common in the Shakespearean times of Scotland.This land was usually a gift for service, so it would make sense that Macbeth would receive land for his heroic war service to the current king.

Research to Exp>

Some examples include:”The Three Witches” by Alexandre- Marie Colinor “Macbeth and the Witches” by Granger. Both can be found online and in reproductions.

Close Read the Text

Lines such as “When the hurlyduryl’s done/ when the battle’s lost and won” (261) and “Where the place/ upon the heath” invoke childlike rhyme schemes that directly conflict with the otherwise scary and evil nature of the witches. It’s this contrast that makes the rhyming patterns unsettling, as if warping a childlike device to be dark.

Analyze the Text

Macbeth, upon seeing the witches, goes into a “rapt” state (264), which is translike and hypnotic. Banquo is more level-headed, and even inquires into the witches beards (“and yet your beards forbid me to interpret”) and prohecy’s, asking why he was not given one, (“to me you speak not”) (264). Macbeth feels fear, whereas Banquo is only interested.

As a guest at the house of Macbeth, the king announced that his son Malcolm will be the next King of Scotland. Macbeth hates to hear this, (“The Prince of Cumberland!’) and is effect to start planning the murder of those who stand in his way, (“Let not light see my black and deep desires”) (269).

The reasons that Macbeth gives for not killing the king are that he,”[am] a kinsman and his subject, strong both against the deed, and his host”) (273). He also admits, that although the King is “meek”, that he is not a bad ruler. He agree that he has no strife upon the King, only “vaulting ambition”, (273). He decides not to kill the King after the soliloquy.

Why These Words

The words “captivity” and “treason” relate to actions that are involved in war and conflict. Additionally “assault” , “rebellion”, and (as stated in the text) “revolt” all have meanings that are similar to the violence expected in war.

Practice

Example; one of the worst treasons to commit on the battlefield is the assault of your own army. On the grounds of war, a revolt is never accepted from within the army, and you will be called a rebellious spirit, and if you flout an attitude that conflicts with other soldiers, your time spent on the battlefield will be short.

Word Study

The latin root -bell means war, and therefor influences the meaning of the words it is p>
Belligerent:means to be hostile and aggressive. Similar in aggression to that of wartime.
Bellicose: a willingness to fight. Related directly to violence and war, such as in the the words.
Antebellum: reflects the period of after-war, such as the Antebellum period after the Civil War.The root -Bell functions again to put the word in frame of wartime.

As king, Macbeth would do a better job of ruling Scotland than King Duncan, who Macbeth tells is meek and unassuming.

In the first scene of Act 2, Macbeth has a vision where a dagger points towards him from the place where King Duncan sleeps. These images remind him of the murder he decided to commit, and they haunt him as Lady Macbeth rings a bell to signal it is time.

The murder of the King is discovered by Macduff, who was sent to check on he King in the morning after the murder. he comes back to report to Macbeth the murder of King Duncan.

Ross and the Old Man in Act 2 Scene iv talk about the mysterious circumstances under which the King Duncan died. More than this, they discuss how natural (an unrelated) effects of the day are strange: how dark it is during the day, how Duncan’s horses died, and how an owl killed a hawk.

During Act 2, the murder of the King is the main event. Under the cover of night, Macbeth kills the king with the help of Lady Macbeth, whom drugs the guards and helps Macbeth clean up after the murder (she decides to frame the guards). During the murder, Macbeth hears people in the castle waken and has haunting thoughts about what he has done. In the morning, Macduff finds the king and wakes the castle, which leads Macbeth to act surprised and Lady Macbeth to faint. A porter makes jokes and Donalbain and Malcolm escape the castle as Macbeth gets crowned king, and he king is buried.

Research to Clarify

Example: What is a porter? In Act 2, Scene iii there is an extended dialogue with a porter, whom research reveals is similar to a janitor. This job still exists today in a similar way to the job performed by the porter in Macbeth’s castle.

Research to Exp>

Research Question: What does the use of the word “Gorgon” mean in relation to how Macduff saw the King when he discovered him dead? Does Shakespeare allude to Greek Gods and goddesses frequently in his plays?
