Macbeth Reading Notes

Macbeth only feels guilty for a short time before he discovers he is ready to do whatever it takes to get the crown
He thinks about what the witches said and decides he must kill Banquo and his son as to not allow the crown in his hands
Macbeth's soliloquy
Macbeth gets set in his ways of killing Banquo and son
Now feels very guilty about killing Duncan
That also is motivator for other people to take over crown from him
Macbeth has murderers
They will pounce on Banquo and Fleanace
Macbeth is still feeling very guilty
Talks to Lady Macbeth
Looks like her role in leading him to kill people is done
Now he wants to eliminate anyone who threatens him
In the woods/forest, murderers wait
They kill Banquo but Fleance escapes
Murderer tells Macbeth at gathering that Banquo is dead and Fleance is gone
Macbeth is mad Fleance is on the loose
Then Banquo's ghost starts haunting Macbeth
Macbeth goes crazy talking to the ghost
Witches have new plan for Macbeth, there is a new witch who is in control now
Next day, Fleance is blamed for murder, but men are suspicious of Macbeth
They are onto him
Macbeth feels threatened again and is ready to fight to keep his crown
