Macbeth notes

The witches are about foreshadowing They are giving a prophecy
-The witches say that Macbeth is going to be a king
Macbeth is introduced with the image of him holding a word in “a bloody execution.”
-Angus and Ross are addressing Macbeth as king
-Macbeth is taking the throne because the former king is on trial for treason.

Literary Elements
-Foreshadowing with witches
-Metaphor
the chestnuts in her lap rip away manhood/sailors wife=Macbeth’s wife
-Imagery
“ Hover through the fog and filthy air.”
-Climax
At the banquet scene (at mid point in the play), Macbeth can no longer hide his torment and guilt and incriminates himself saying "Thou canst say I did it." From this point forward in the play, there is no hope for Macbeth. His mind and his country sink into chaos. It is obvious that he is beyond the point of recovery, and his story will end tragically.
-Mood
Dark, brooding, and evil this is developed by the four witch scenes, Macbeth's sick mind, and the chaotic state of affairs.
