Banquo says, “I fear thou play’ds most foully for’t” (Act 3 sc 1 lines 2-3). I feel that Banquo is seeing that Macbeth is getting everything that he wants and Banquo is noticing that it’s out of the ordinary and he ends up getting suspicious of Macbeth. Macbeth notices that Banquo is getting suspicious of him. Also, the weird sister told Macbeth that one of Banquo sons is going to be king one day. Macbeth doesn’t like the idea of both of these, so Macbeth hires murderers to kill Banquo and his son, Fleance.
In life, you get what you give. Act 3 is all about Macbeth planning the murder of his dearest friend, Banquo. It seems absurd to kill someone who has been by your side through everything, but he has his eye on the prize: Power. In scene 4, Macbeth states, “It will have blood; they say blood will have blood. Stones have been
While the witches are making their predictions about both Macbeth and Banquo, the prophecies made foreshadow many upcoming events about to occur. I do not personally believe that directly telling that something will happen, such as Macbeth becoming king, is foreshadowing, however, that combined with the predictions made about Banquo do create foreshadowing. While it is said that Macbeth will become king, it is also said that Banquo's children will become kings, and these two events contradict each other. Since it is established that Macbeth is a ruthless soldier on the battlefield, it can be assumed that he will fight for what he wants, thus foreshadowing that Macbeth may in fact kill Banquo in order to prevent Banquo's children from gaining
But because of how shes seen as good it's easier to trust her more, especially her husband which ultimately led to a fate worse than her own for the society of scotland. But what's “fair is foul and what's foul is fair” in this story “Macbeth” is about Three witches
They made their way back to the castle where Macbeth was greeted with the news that he had received the title as Thane of Cawdor, which only added to his feelings of overwhelm. The first prediction of the witches was already present, the second one had just come true, this left the third one; Macbeth becoming king. For this to happen, the current king Duncan would have to be slain, surely this could not take place by Macbeth? He had not told Banquo his thoughts on the prediction, the thought of killing Duncan did, in fact, spring to his mind, despite his unconditional loyalty to this man over the years. Macbeths POV
The three witches in Macbeth were played in various ways in the different plays that people have put on over the years. Some of the play authors made the witches have white faces, manly faces, some are dressed in dark or red colors, and some are just plain ugly. The three witches are known as the Weird Sisters. When people would compare witches to something they would compare them to darkness and death. Christians
Throughout the rest of the Act Banquo and Macbeth hide this knowledge leading everyone to think they were surprised when Macbeth became Thane of Cawdor. Lady Macbeth and Macbeth are clear examples of “Fair is foul, and foul is fair” in this act. King
After the killers told mAcbeth that they had killed Banquo, he states,¨'Tis better thee without than he within. Is he dispatched?¨ (III.iv.15). This quote reveals that he was cruel because we see Banquo as an honorable man and even Macbeth's best friend. The fact that Macbeth had Banquo killed just because he was suspicious tells the reader that Macbeth Is cruel.
Macbeth, now with a complete change of mindset, is planning to murder Banquo since he knows about the witches. He wants the utmost protection but also from what the witches have discussed with him regarding the kin of Banquo becoming royalty, he needs to be cut from the picture so Macbeth can continue his reign. Macbeth, power thirsty, is going for other people and murdering all that is in the way of his throne, “…give to th’edge o’th’sword his wife, his babes, and all unfortunate souls that trace him in his line.” (IV, ii, 150-152). Macbeth, now totally out of control, has become someone he does not recognize.
“Fair is foul, and foul is fair…” In the story of Macbeth, Three witches on a battlefield with Macbeth and Banquo share this tale with three prophecies that follow speaking that Macbeth will be Thane of Glamis, Thane of Cawdor, and king in the future. These prophecies change how Macbeth views his future after he suddenly becomes Thane of Cawdor after meeting the three witches. Although Macbeth wanted to be king, his wife Lady Macbeth is mainly the cause of all of the tragedies. Macbeth knew the only way to the king was to kill the king and his son but he didn’t want to, as it would ruin the good relationship he has with Duncan.
The third powerful explanation of paradox “Fair is foul and foul s fair” is that some people who appearances fair but their personality is foul. This explanation is important because it teaches us that do not trust people easily, there are many evidences to hold this idea. Have we even thought the personality of witches, are they good or bad? Just like Duncan said “there's no art to find the mind's construction in the face” (Act I sense 4) From many acts we think witches served for people to get what they deserve “All hail, Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter!” (Act I sense 3)
A boy likes to help people when they need some. The boy finds someone to help because they were struggling with carrying a heavy item. The boy gets done helping and finally makes it home. When he gets home, his mom chews him out for helping someone instead of making it home. The boy’s story shows the theme of fair is foul and foul is fair.
In Shakespeare's Macbeth, Banquo portrays the theme fair is foul through many of his actions and words. In Act II, when Macbeth finds Banquo before killing Duncan, Banquo tells Macbeth
Life presents us with many substantial uncertainties and choices, and many more smaller ones. We resort to a second opinion or at least see ourselves steered in the direction of an ulterior opinion. Say, the wishes of your family as you proceed into post-secondary, or the opinion of a friend or family member with a particular candidate for marriage, as examples. We lean to someone familiar and who we trust, and place these relationships in the spotlight and their better judgement to the test, whether fair or foul. The play MacBeth, work done by William Shakespeare, follows the life and death of a once glorified thane, Macbeth, as he is seen leaping forward with ambition, to lock in a position at the throne of Scotland.
Fail not our feast"(Act III, sc i, Line 27). This shows irony because Banquo had trusted Macbeth, not knowing what Macbeth was planning for him. Macbeth wanted Banquo to come to a feast, only to actually have him murdered. Macbeth 's ambitions to become king had been so high that he had murderers murder his close friend. If Macbeth was not so ambitious and power hungry he would not have killed his friend and king, Macbeth had been a nobleman and had the trust of all the people he murdered.
