Macbeth Banquo Analysis

Banquo has his suspicions of Macbeth and expects him of treachery. Macbeth is aware of Banquo’s suspensions from the witches vision that he will someday become a father to many kings. Due to his suspicions, Macbeth has decided to hire two murderers, one for Banquo and the other for his son Fleance because Macbeth is worried that if Banquo become king, Macbeth son will not be heir to his throne. During a banquet that Macbeth was attending, he saw the ghost of Banquo. This scared him. In relationship to this in the Throne of Blood is just the opposite whereas Washizu saw Miki’s ghost before the murderer and inform him that Miki is dead. But he forgot to kill her son. Lady Macbeth asks all of the guests to leave. Macbeth decides to visit

the witches and ask for more prophecies.
In addition to the prophecies from the witches, he also receives comforting news. He was told by the first apparition that he should fear Macduff. The second apparition determination to tell Macbeth “that pow’r of man, for none of woman born, shall harm Macbeth” (4.1.80-81). This seems to imply that since all people are born from a woman, Macbeth cannot be defeated by anyone. The final apparition tells Macbeth that he would not be beaten until Birnam Woods moves to Dunsinane Hill. Hearing this gave Macbeth the feeling of being indestructible and builds up his confidence about the witch’s words and thinks he cannot be defeated. Shortly, Lennox told Macbeth the news that how Macduff fled to England. Macbeth then decided to invade Macbeth castle and ordered the killing of Macduff’s family and servants as payback since Macduff didn’t approve of Macbeth becoming king. Malcolm tests Macduff’s loyalty and Malcolm realizes that he is loyal. He agrees to provide an army and go with Macduff to Scotland to take down Macbeth.
Lady Macbeth will never feel any quilt concerning the murder. She began to hallucinate about “not being able to wash off all the guilt, and still having blood on her hands” (5.1.28-32). The shame and the regret of the murder have become unbearable for her; to the point of taking her own life. She did commit suicide which seems to be the least of Macbeth concern at the moment as he is feeling depressed and not finding any meaning to life. During the war, Macbeth learns that Macduff was not born in a natural way but born by cesarean, which isn’t considered woman born. This is just the witch’s prophecies. Macbeth is then killed and Macduff hails Malcolm as the new King of Scotland.
Lady Macbeth is obvious a bright person with a strong character but is also evil, and a conniving wife of Macbeth, she is the conspirator in killing King Duncan in which she helps Macbeth builds up the courage to commit murder.

She controls Macbeth who is a brave soldier and powerful man. Feeling guilty, Lady Macbeth tries to deal with her conscious of guilt, but her downfall causes her to be weak and powerless. Macbeth is a noble, courageous and loyal man as he risked everything to protect Scotland from the Norwegians. His ambitions to become king was the doing of the witches prophesizes. His brave fight for battle against the Norwegians was causing the witches to appear. The treachery of Macbeth was controlled by his wife although he felt regret of killing Duncan. When the witch’s prophecies corrupted him, he got greedy. Since the witches had the power to control Macbeth they are somewhat responsible for Macbeth's actions. In the character of Macbeth, not only the duality inherent in many Renaissance heroes is reflected as a strong, bright personality forced to commit a crime for the sake of incarnation, but his downfall is caused by an antagonist. Nonetheless, both Lady Macbeth and Macbeth are equal partners in their ambitions. Throughout the play, he keeps imagining the blood-stained dagger that was used to kill

Duncan.
