How did the witches of 'Macbeth' differ from the supernatural creatures in 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'?
The witches had no clear motive. They told Banquo and Macbeth the prophecies but other than that, does nothing to help Macbeth. Nor did they torment him or place him under any harm. Furthermore, they are seen as sinister and evil beings who are not to be trust and should be guarded against, as said by Banquo. The supernatural creatures in Midsummer Night will be the faeries. Quite unlike the witches, who seemed to be watching the whole tragedy of Macbeth unfold from a sideline, the faeries are eager to help the Athenian lovers and they also restore order to the world in the end. The witches do not. Lastly, appearance-wise, the witches are ambiguous - they are seen to be quite feminine, yet they have beards and there is doubt as to whether they belong to earth. Macbeth even addresses them as "What are you" instead of "Who are you" when he first met them. The faeries on the other are seen to be quite divine and shows a hieracy. There is a king, queen, there are the servants and also the henchmen like Puck. Also, they are described to be beautiful and having firm ideas about that they want and what they are going to do.
Is there discrimination in Romeo and Juliet?
There is discrimination in Romeo and Juliet,There is Family Discrimination, Juliet and Romeo's family simply hate each other simply because of there last name.There is Class Discrimination, The Apotacray who sells Romeo the poision is a victum of class discrimination. He is at the very bottom of the hieracy and will be killed if people find out he is selling poitions. The Apothecary almost doesnt sell Romeo potion in fear the news will get out, but Romeo gives him alot of money which he despratley needs!There is Gender Discrimination, There is the expectation that Juliet should get married, because she is a girl. Woman are seen more as objects than people. Juliets father feels that Juliet has no power as she is a girl, he doesnt give her a choice in marriage. He trys to sell her off to Paris, he cares less about her feelings and more about money and alliances. Woman are seen as inferior to men.Then there is also Econmoic Situtation, Both the Capulets and Montagues are seen in there community as equal in status and money. Therefore they are in a bit of competition with each other. There economic status causes alot of issues such as cokpetitiveness which leads to discrimination.
