Three Gorges

dramatic tension and the mounting suspense. Several supernatural apparitions throughout the play profoundly affect Macbeth and the evil forces eventually claim Macbeth and destroy his morals. Macbeth 's ambition was driven by the prophecies of the three witches and unlike Banquo, he was willing to do anything to assure that they actually transpire. Macbeth is horrified at the notion of killing Duncan, his King and kinsman, but he eventually succumbs to the evil forces and this leads to his downfall

Shakespeare 's tragedy, Macbeth, follows a man’s bloody rise to power, which hinges on murder of the Scottish king named Duncan. In my opinion, the play 's most memorable character is the wife of this man, Lady Macbeth. Similar to her spouse, Lady Macbeth 's lust for power plunges her into madness.

The playwright Macbeth begins with Macbeth, who is thane of Glamis and Banquo being introduced to the Weird Sisters after a victorious battle. The Weird Sisters or otherwise known as the Three Witches. The Three Witches convince Macbeth that he had a great destiny awaiting him. “ All hail, Macbeth! that shalt be king hereafter.” (Shakespeare, Act 1, scene 3, line 53) Once Lady Macbeth hears of what the Witches have foretold her scheme starts brewing

United in Tragedy Shakespeare’s idea of a human is not a creature that can be good or bad, but one that can act toward either end, or a mixture of both, depending on ambition. It is not always the ambition of his characters, however, which initially turns them to the dark, or indeed to any path. [B]ut be not afraid of greatness: some Are born great, some achieve greatness, and some Have greatness thrust upon 'em. (Twelfth Night 2.5.)

“One for all, and all for one!” The most famous and noticeable line in the Three Musketeers folklore legacy whether it be from the films to the original book by Alexandre Dumas. Although this famous line has been used throughout many reworks and adaptations of the three musketeers, many films have not followed in the footsteps of the original book and have changed things to best appeal to the audience.

for decieve and manipulate, and this play has several parts for all three of these words to occur. There are three witches that are straight from hell that start this play. They are super evil and known for decieving people into believing one thing and then doing another in the same frame of mind. They twist things into wicked things and they get away with it because people continue to go to them for help. When they make the three profecies on Macbeth and Banquo the two knights don’t know what to
