Macbeth Act 1 Notes
- Duncan wants thane of Cawdor killed because he joined the enemy army
- King makes Macbeth Thane of Cawdor because he showed bravery and courage and was a ruthless killer
- This foreshadows: Macbeth will kill the king
- 3 witches say that: 1. Macbeth will be Thane of Glamis, 2. He will be the Thane of Cawdor, 3. He will be king, 4. Banquo's children will be king
- Macbeth tells wife he is the new Thane of Cawdor, and she decides she wants the king killed so Macbeth can be king, comes up with plan.
- Macbeth is very indecisive on whether to kill king or not
