Macbeth

In the Shakespearean play, the main character was called Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057]. He was a real, historical figure from eleventh century Scotland. But his name wasn't simply Macbeth. His real name was MacBethad mac Findlaich, which meant MacBethad son of Findlaech. His first name would have been considered MacBethad, and his surname mac Findlaich.

Donalbain fled to Ireland. In Act 2 Scene 4, the future Kings Donald III [d. 1099] and Malcolm III [d. November 13, 1093] learned of the murder of their father, King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040]. Both brothers found the circumstances of their father's death suspicious. They felt that remaining in Scotland was hazardous to their lives and to their chances to claim the Scottish crown and throne as their father's heirs.

King Duncan I of the Shakespearean play 'Macbeth' was a real, historical figure in the history of Scotland. He was the son of Crinan [d. 1045], the Hereditary Abbot of Dunkeld; and Bethoc, the eldest daughter of King Malcolm II [d. November 25, 1034]. He succeeded his father as King of Scotland, and ruled until his death on August 14, 1040. He died at the hands of his own men for having launched an unprovoked, unpopular, unjustified, unjust invasion of the lands of his successor, King Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057].

Macbeth turned evil by listening to the raging ambitionwithin his own personality, letting himself be manipulatedby the three witches, and allowing himself to be influencedby his wife's equally raging ambition. It was due to the evil within himself and his wife, as well as evil personified in the three witches that Macbeth killed his own king, two guards who just tried to do their job of protecting the king, his best friend Banquo, and Macduff's defenseless family. Additionally, that evil led him to bring pain and suffering on a mass scale to the entire Scottish nation.

You're a playwright, the most successful alive. The new King is your patron. You have a record of writing plays to please the reigning monarch. Why not write a play which reinforces the legitimacy of the King's family and shows him to be descended from good guys who had every right to depose the bad guy, Macbeth? Good politics, eh?

Without Fleance escaping there is noone to tell the story of Banquo

During a job interview, an interviewer may ask a candidate questions which help them decide if the candidate is a team player. An example would be asking the person about how they objectively considered other's ideas. They might respond by talking about a team project where they stepped outside their comfort zone and went with an opinion other than their own.

They don't really. The Macbeths are looking the innocent flower while being the serpent under it. There is the appearance that the Macbeths are good people and deserve to be king and queen, but in reality they have committed horrible crimes. (Macbeth commits crimes without involving his wife in both acts.) So, nothing is what it seems: fair is foul and foul is fair. But there is no confusion in the audience's mind about what is good and what is evil--we know even if the people in the play do not.

Macbeth was not a fictional character made up by Shakespeare. He was based on a historical character, although he is not in any way like the real historical Macbeth. Shakespeare took most of the story of Macbeth from the history book Holinshed's Chronicles which contains most of the events shown in the play. Shakespeare did develop the character of Macbeth found in Holinshed, but he did not invent him.

Blood appears on the dagger; Lady Macbeth also sees blood on her hands as she sleepwalks.

Lennox notes that Malcolm and Donalbain have been accused of Duncan's murder and Fleance has been accused of Banquo's. However, he intimates that if either of them were in Macbeth's control, they would find out what it means to be murdered.

We need to know which speech you are talking about. Are you talking about "thy nature . . . is too full of the milk of human kindness to catch the nearest way"? If so, it's not hard to see what she is thinking.

Generally, yes. He regrets the murder immediately after doing it. "Wake Duncan with thy knocking! I would thou couldst."

"She should have died hereafter. There would have been a time for such a word. Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow creeps in this petty pace from day to day to the last syllable of recorded time. And all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle. Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."
