Order vs Disorder Flashcards
Whilst being the ‘instruments’ of fate, the witches cause
chaos through manipulating Macbeths tragic flaw
Duncans regecide symbolises the perversion of
natural order which can only be restored once the rightful heir- Malcolm- is crowned
The early subversion of gender roles between Macbeth and Lady Macbeth hints at the
perversion of the natural order of the universe
When shall we three meet again, in
thunder, lightning, or in rain?
So wither’d and so wild in their attire, That look
not like the inhabitants o’the earth
Why do i yield to that suggestion whose horrid image doth unfix my
hair, and make my seated heart knock at my ribs
You secret
black and midnight hags!
Who should against his murderer shut the door,
not bear the knife myself
Our separated fortune shall
keep us both safer
Renown and
grace is dead
Bring thou this fiend of Scotland myself; within
my swords length set him
Yet do i fear thy nature; It is too full o’
the milk of human kindness
Infirm of purpose! Give
me the daggers
My hands are of your colour; but i shame
to wear a heart so white
