Macbeth

The Roman god of water and of the sea.

That Macbetbh had murdered sleep.

The ghost upset Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] by sitting in the royal seat at the banquet. In Act 3 Scene 1 of the Shakespearean play, Macbeth planned the murder of his friend and former fellow General Banquo. In Scene 3, the murder was carried out by three murderous thugs. In Scene 4, Macbeth hosted a post-coronation celebration banquet to which he hypocritically had invited Banquo. Just before the banquet, Macbeth learned that the thugs had botched the killing. Banquo's throat indeed had been slit. But Banquo's son Fleance had escaped. Macbeth had wanted father and son dead, to prevent Banquo's family from taking over the Scottish crown and throne. At the banquet, Macbeth tried to keep up his hypocritical act of being Banquo's friend. He accused Banquo of deciding not to attend out of discourtesy instead of misadventure. At that point, Banquo's ghost showed up and sat in Macbeth's seat. No one else could see the ghost. It was Banquo's way of saying that Macbeth's murderous plan wasn't going to keep Banquo's line off the Scottish throne. Macbeth subsequently toasted Banquo again. This time, and more kindly, he claimed to be missing his friend's presence. Banquo's ghost again showed up, for Macbeth's eyes only.

Limited in their power. She can make his life miserable but she cannot kill him. It also shows how petty they are. This poor man is going to suffer terribly because his wife wouldn't give the witch some chestnuts, and was pretty rude about it.

Macbeth's courage in battle is a matter for great admiration and celebration among the other characters in the play. The audience is naturally drawn to join in this admiration. Our admiration for Macbeth at the beginning of the play makes his moral collapse that much more remarkable.

The porter of the Macbeth household. He's still severely drunk at that time, so he most likely is just rambling on with a loose tongue, as most drunkards do.

he wishes that it could wake Duncan from death

Tragic flaw is not "used" in a play, it is imposed on a play in an effort to understand it better. Some people think it works, and others don't. But in any event, it was not a concept in Shakespeare's mind when he wrote Macbeth.

Macbeth killed King Duncan after hearing the witches' prophecies and being urged on by his wife, Lady Macbeth

murder Macduff's family

so they will sleep through kind duncan's murder.

it means the drink which intoxicated the chamberlains gave lady Macbeth the strength the cover their faces and beds with duncan's blood

A porter is simply the man who is in charge of the gate. He's the one that opens it and closes it, and makes sure people who aren't supposed to come in don't.

The porter from Macbeth, specifically, is the comic relief after Duncan is murdered. Shakespeare knew that he had to keep people interested, and thus needed to put in something funny.

The porter has been drinking all night, and when he hears Macduff and Lennox knocking, he imagines that he is porter to the gates of Hell. He then proceeds to imagine what kind of people he would let in.

I hope this helps.

the crown

I think it symbolizes all of the battles he has been in

Neptune

Malcolm Canmore, later king of Scotland, was the son of King Duncan. Also Donald Ban was his son, and he also became king later on. Both of these appear in Shakespeare's play.

Sinel is Macbeth's father

No, Macbeth is not a static character, he's actually the main dynamic character in the play. A static character does not change through out the story. I'd say Banquo, Macduff, and Malcolm are static characters because they don't change their views or traits.

the candle scene in Macbeth refers to the 'Sleepwalking scene"... where Lady Macbeth's heart has been burdened with remorse and she longs for peace of mind and soul. the unending darkness that has over time engulfed her mind is only broken by the flickering light from her candle... check it up..(not sure)

Macbeth does not take place in a city exactly. The first scenes are thought to be near the town of Forres. Macbeth's castle, at which Duncan is killed, is at Inverness, which is a city, although the castle is not exactly in the city. (Duncan says "the air nimbly and sweetly recommends itself" which would not be true in a city). The later scenes are at the castle at Dunsinane, which is also in the country.

Now, to put it in perspective, this is from the 'is this a dagger' speech. So, Macbeth is hallucinating a bloody dagger. He can't touch it, so he realizes it's not real and, in the line above, says it's the thought of killing Duncan, (which is the "bloody business") that is making him see things.

a captain

Yes, he did, and for those reasons.

"O horror! horror! horror! Tongue nor heart cannot conceive nor name thee!"
