    Just wanted to point out Macduff’s first entrance is 1.6 alongside Duncan and others on his arrival at Macbeth’s castle, not 2.3. 2.3 is the first time the audience hears Macduff speak.

      Ralph-the goodie, represents democracy
      Jack-the baddie, represents 'primal nature' and dictatorship
      Piggy-the weak one, represents society and science
      Simon- the other good one, represents purity and gets symbolically stabbed to death
      hope this serves as an acceptable guide till sir graces us with a much better one

    the audience first meet macduff AFTER the murder of duncan is that significant? if yes than how can we interprate that as being significant?

    • @joelle3495
      @joelle3495 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I think it is significant as it foreshadows that Macduff will do to Macbeth what he did to the king - regicide- except he will be righteous in doing so. This shows how the character of Macduff basically operates as a balance to the selfish and greedy character of Macbeth, since he too is ambitious but not for personal gain, rather for his loyalty of his country and for it to have its right king (Malcolm).
