What is known

Shakespeare is known he his great tragedies and comedic twists. The only things I knew about Macbeth came from those who studied it before me and complained to me about the assignments. Therefore, all I knew was that Lady Macbeth is a crazy psychopathic genius that consumes her husband. Although the Lady does not appear in the first act, foreshadowing of a terrible deed comes when Macbeth talks to the witches. The play incorporates a whole bunch of Old-English words that completely makes no sense. However, after watching the videos of the act, I got a better understanding of the situation, for the music basically tells you when you should feel sad, angry, happy, or in the cast of the first act, concerned.

I found that the story was written in the dialogue form. I knew that the story was a Shakespearean tragedy, but it did not occur to me that the entire story is a script of the play. I really doubted the fact that the entire play was written in iambic, so after every line I read, I would consider the line with my hands and start counting stressed and unstressed syllables. I also looked around YouTube and found that Patrick Stewart played Macbeth in a BBC version of the play. Therefore, since Patrick Stewart plays Macbeth, you would know that Macbeth is a worthy play to read. Since Shakespearean plays are so similar in the tragedies. When the witches sang and chanted the "double double toil and trouble song" in ACT IV scene I, I admit, that I sang along while reading the text. Here is ACT I scene I, from Macbeth:

A part of the play, also known as a part of history I disliked was the fact that Macbeth, King Duncan, and the other nobility did not fight at all. Instead, they greeted the victorious Captain, dripping in blood, yet the Captain still needs to be polite and blessed in meeting "his grace". Perhaps this was one of the reasons I never really had a good impression of Macbeth. This story takes place in the middle ages, but to me, any middle-aged story without a dragon, a ring, and elves is a meaningless one. The witches can be considered fantastical, but they did not use any of their magic to put a spell of Macbeth. In other words, the events and murders by Macbeth is the result of his own actions.
