LA2 Handout #2 4/1

Part I:

1.  Yes, Lady Macbeth is a cold blooded murderer because she tells Macbeth to kill Duncan and she doesn’t feel guilty about it, she also puts the bloody daggers in the guards hands to frame them when they are knocked out. 

2. Lady Macbeth faints to look innocent so it would take Macduff’s suspicions away. It works because it fooled Malcolm, Macduff, and Donalbain and she was carried away.

3. The of Duncan gets to him and he lets the guilt overcome him. He starts to say things that will give away what he and Lady Macbeth did. 

4. Lady Macbeth did not kill Duncan because he looked like her father when he was sleeping. 

5. Macbeth should do whatever it takes to still be king because he didn’t go through all of that work to have someone find out it was him that killed Duncan and let them take it away from him. 

Part II:

1. ”My hands are the same color as yours - but I'd be ashamed to have a heart as white as yours!” Page 73

"Weak-willed creature ! Give me the daggers. Persons sleeping or dead are only like paintings. It is childish to fear a painted devil. If Duncan bleeds, I'll paint the guards' faces with the blood, because they must appear to be guilty of his murder.” Page 51

2. "Who could control himself that had a loving heart and in that heart the courages to show it?

*faints* Help me out here.” Page 63

"What will you do? Let's not get together with them. To show sorrow you don't feel is an act which comes easily to a hypocrite. I'm going to England. And I'm going to Ireland. By going separate ways, we shall both be safer. Wherever the two of us are, men's smile conceal daggers. The closer the relative, the nearer he is to spilling our blood.” Page 65

3. "Where is that knocking coming from? What is the matter with me that every noise terrifies me?” Page 51

"Who can be wise and astounded, and calm and furious, loyal and neutral, all at the same time? Nobody. My passion overwhelmed my reason. Here lay Duncan” Page 85

4. "If Duncan hadn't looked so much like my father as he slept, I would have murdered him myself.” Page 69
