Due Monday, January 6th - Witches



Directions:  1) Read through the material on the website link above which contains helpful background material on the witches during Shakespeare's time.  You may find a whole new way of viewing the play and Macbeth.  2) Next, revisit all the moments where the witches come into focus.  Read the text with a fresh set of eyes.  How was Macbeth viewed when he first meets them?  In Act IV?  3)  Compose a blog response sharing your insights on the relationship among the witches, Macbeth, Banquo, and the concept of fate.  Please use direct evidence from the text and the website in your responses.
