More Macbeth Notes

Act III-
Scene 1:
Why is the attendant all capitalized?
Macbeth is describing banquo in a threat and e wants to kill banquo. This is guilt building up and Macbeth is going off the rails. (Direct characterization) violent and brutal and honorable to murdering Duncan and making people into enemies so he turns into a sociopath. Character development and evolution. This shows him punishing himself. Diseased.
Witches give suggestions not orders.
Convinces them to kill banquo by saying banquo was better than you and not equal and stuff. Says this to murderers.
Scene 2:
Scene 3: banquo dies
Scene 4: "banquos safe" meaning he is dead
Safe= secured. Look back to fair is foul and foul is fair. So like look again at things said. Witches said banquo would be father of kings. Macbeth needed to kill fleance so family relatives don't come back. Banquo's ghost comes. Ghost is in MacBeths head. More about schitzophrania. He is talking to banquo. Lady Macbeth is questioning his mascunality and verbally abusing him.
Scene V:
Heckade guide to witches or adviser
Scolding the three witches for talking to Macbeth, and should be knowing that humans are weak, and that they talked to him in the way that didn't show there full potential of power. Heckade now has to go and sort everything out and manipulate MacBeths perceptions on thing. Macbeth will start acting more like a killer.
Scene IV:
