In Shakespeare’s time, there were very definite ideas about how men and women differed. In Macbeth, Shakespeare suggests that violence is a more inherently male behavior.
Which incidents in the play help convey that idea? Select each correct answer.

A. The murders of Duncan, Banquo, Macduff's family, and Macbeth are all carried out by men rather than women.
B. Lady Macbeth says she could not kill Duncan because he looked like her father while he was sleeping.
C. Lady Macbeth loses her mind because of her guilt, but Macbeth is not bothered by the murders he commits.
D. Lady Macduff says she is glad her son died in front of her, rather than on the battlefield as many women's sons do.

Respuesta :

A, B, and I think C as well (Macbeth did not loose his mind due to guilt, however, the murders he commits do affect him greatly.) I hope that you find these answers helpful.
