Macbeth's minions in aiding him in the disposing of Banquo return with blood on their faces. Macbath, once again, is almost at a state of allay relief, peace in his soul. Ironically at the end of the scene Banquo's ghost appears in Macbeth's seat after he left the scene. This puts out to the audience that Macbeth is still haunted by the macabre Banquo for his bad decisions.

Setting
The setting in scene IV is a banquet. Both lady Macbeth and her husband are very vulnerable to Scotland because people are starting to catch on to their depraved actions. They host the banquet to provide a bastion to secure Scotland's royalty. Lady Macbeth flatters every one in announcing, "To all our friends; For my heart speaks they are welcome."

I agree with Mary, both Macbeth and lady Macbeth are haunted by their actions and the murders they helped commit. This banquet is a major turning point, people realize when Macbeth hallucinates that something must be wrong, perhaps he is the murderer.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Mary and how Macbeth and her husband are both weak and vulnerable. I also liked how you used vocab words in this blog to show your point across.
ReplyDeleteI think you did a good job on this. I agree with how they are vulnerable to Scotland. They made this get together with everyone to show that they are strong and that will be good leaders. However i think it backfired on them and made them look weak and not good leaders.
