Macbeth

The American heritage dictionary defines the word supernatural as an, "existence relating to outside of the natural world" (Dell 825). In the play Mac Beth, William Shakespeare uses the supernatural to captivate the audiences' attention. While the play would have the same plot without these elements, it just would not be as interesting. The play, Romeo and Juliet has the chorus set up the plot and in Macbeth the supernatural does the job. In essence, to captivate the audience's attention, instead of using the expected or the norm, Shakespeare uses three witches.1st Witch When shall we three meet again2nd Witch When the hurlyburly's done,3rd Witch That will be ere the set of sun.3rd Witch There to meet Macbeth (1.1.1-8 ).In Act 1 Scene 1, Shakespeare uses the three witches to set a dialogue to foreshadow the coming events in the play. "When the hurlburly's done/When the battle is lost and won (1.1.3-4 ). This line lets the audience/readers know that the play is centered around battle and most likely will have soldiers as characters. In addition, this battle will be ended by sundown,


"Printhee see there! behold! look! lo! How say you?" (3. 44-45) At this point Macbeth questions the three witches, "Speak if you can: what are you?" (1. After Macbeth is king he begins to worry, that Banquo will have children who will overthrow him. "Come, let me clutch thee, / I have thee not, and yet I see thee still (2. In front of the guests, Macbeth talks to an empty seat, "Printhee see there! behold! look! lo! How say you?/ Why, what care I? If thou canst nod, speak too. "My noble partner/ You greet with present grace and great prediction/ Of noble having and of royal hope," (1. / By each at once her choppy finger laying/ Upon her skinny lips:" (1. In trying, to describe the existence of the dagger Macbeth foreshadows two events; a dagger will be used to kill the king, and the fact that he will have a troubled mind after the murder. After the murder has taken place, he attends a dinner party his wife is holding.
