Macbeth and Lady Macbeth plan to blame the murder of King Duncan on his chamberlains by framing them with the daggers used in the assassination.
Lady Macbeth planned to blame the murder on the grooms of Duncan's chamber. This frame-up was successful, at least at first.
The Macbeths' plan was to blame Duncan's bodyguards for the murder of Duncan. To this end Lady M. smeared their faces with blood and they stole the bodyguards' daggers to commit the murder. But Macbeth was worried that when they woke up and denied having anything to do with the murder (They could reasonably point out that they had been too drunk to do anything) people might believe them. Therefore he made sure they had no chance to deny the murder.
Macbeth frames the guards for Duncan's murder by placing the bloody daggers in their hands while they were asleep, so that it would appear as if they were the ones who committed the crime. This was part of his plan to shift the blame away from himself and solidify his claim to the throne.
I think so...but i have to write an essay on it! Argggg!! i wish i could just copy and paste something! on a tecnicality yes she was because she was the one to convince Macbeth to kill duncan but Macbeth is also to blame for agreeing to do it hope i helped :)
Normally, people would not blame the witches. They just said things and Macbeth reacted by doing things. The witches can only be held to blame if you think that Macbeth had no choice in his actions. But if he had no choice, how come the witches do have a choice?
Duncan is murdered in 2.3. By 2.4, Macduff is already suspicious. He's the first one to think something may be going on at the castle--so consequently, he flees and does not stay for Macbeth's coronation. We hear this in 2.4.37-38.
There's no right answer. You have to decide for yourself who was responsible, which is what is so great about literature. There's either Lady Macbeth, the witches, or Macbeth himself. I believe Lady Macbeth was first to blame for her manipulation on Macbeth, then Macbeth because he chose to do the things he did under Lady Macbeth's word. The witches meerly told him what was going to happen in Macbeth's life.
Because he was a very naughty man.
Macbeth brings the bloody daggers back to their bedroom to frame the sleeping guards for King Duncan's murder. He wants to shift the blame away from himself and convince others that the guards were the ones responsible for the crime.
Macbeth caused it, Lady Macbeth proposed it, the stewards were killed for it, and the king's sons took the blame for it.
Both Macbeth and his wife plotted this murder. The target was to be one of Macbeth's closest friends..... he had it setup so that while his friend and his friend's son were traveling to meet him they would be attacked and killed by robbers so that no blame could pass upon the now King Macbeth. The unfortunate son escaped with his life.... the father was not so lucky
