Summary "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare is a tragedy written during the early 17th century. The play explores themes of ambition, guilt, and the supernatural through the story of Macbeth, a Scottish nobleman who is prophesied to become king, leading him and his wife, Lady Macbeth, down a dark path of murder and madness. At the start of "Macbeth," the play introduces us to a tumultuous Scotland, where three witches prophesize Macbeth's rise to power as the Thane of Cawdor and future king. As Macbeth and his friend Banquo encounter the witches, they are astonished by their predictions. Following their victory in battle, Macbeth is named Thane of Cawdor, fueling his ambition and desire for the throne. Lady Macbeth, upon learning of the witches' prophecies, becomes determined to seize power for her husband and encourages him to commit regicide. The opening acts set a dark and foreboding tone, as ambition and fate intertwine, foreshadowing the chaos that will unravel. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
