I read Macbeth. This is also written by William Shakespeare. The reason why I read it is that I also have to read it at English literature class. I know only its name, and I didn’t know its story. This story is also a tragedy.
Returning triumphant from battle, Macbeth and Banquo encountered three witches. They predicted that Macbeth shall be Thane of Cawdor. And, he shall be King of Scotland. Then, Banquo shall be a father ob kings. And, soon Macbeth heard that he had been made Thane of Cawdor. And Macbeth murdered King Dunkan who was visiting his castle at Dunsinane. Dunkan’s sons, Malcolm and Donalbain flee in terror, and Macbeth was crowned king.
Macbeth also killed Banquo, but Banquo’s son, Fleance escaped. Macbeth revisited the witches, and he was told that he should beware Macduff. And he can be harmed by no man born of woman’s laps. And he is safe until Birnam Wood comes to Dunsinane. Then, Macbeth killed Macdaff’s wife and children. Then macbeth’s wife had gone mad and died. Malcolm brought an army to attack Dunsinane, and they were using leaves from Birnam Wood. And Macduff killed Macbeth. Because he was not born of woman’s laps, and he was born cut from his mother’s body. And Malcolm is proclaimed king.
I think that Macbeth is very foolish. I got the reason why Macbeth was called the best of tragedies of Shakespeare. This story is very terrible for me, but I was interesting very much.
