Written 1605-1606
Very twisted and cynical story
Macbeth is a murderer
Mrs macbeth was the daughter of biote
The 3 witches represent weird, fate, and destiny
Story was written for king James
1040 Macbeth killed Duncan in battle
Then was killed by Malcom Duncan son
One of Shakespeare's favorite sources was Holinshed's Chronicles of the History of England & Scotland
"double, double, toil and trouble" is a famous line from the play
The story takes place in the dark ages
Shakespeare changed history to simplify complexities And the changes Shakespeare made to the story was to brown nose king James
