Ok, so we're reading Macbeth in Dowling's Shakespeare class right now. We just started it today, which meant a Rain Man Quiz, meaning hardly any time to discuss, but enough to bring up questions that we can talk about over the next two weeks while we study the play. One of the questions posed was regarding the witches. (I don't know if you've read Macbeth or not, but in the beginning, these witches tell Macbeth that he will become Thane of Cawdor and then King of Scotland. By chance, he becomes Thane of Cawdor, then he kills the King so that HE can become king.) Anyway, the question was something along the lines of, would Macbeth have followed the path he did if the witches hadn't told him his future? Would he have murdered the King? Or would he have been able to become King some other way? OR, would it never have happened at all?
