Macbeth Context:
Macbeth is a play written around 1606 by William Shakespeare. Shakespeare was writing for the theatre during the reigns of Queen Elizabeth I and King James I. The plays he wrote around the time Queen Elizabeth was in control such as Midsummer night’s dreams contain themes of confidence, happiness and love. However, the plays he wrote during the reign of King James such as Macbeth were much more cynical and dark reflecting the insecurities of King James.
Macbeth is known as one of Shakespeare’s most strong and forceful plays. The play was written in 1606, a time in history that was called the Elizabethan era. The Elizabethan Age was an age of discovery and of expansion. Shakespeare's plays were written for the average man or women in the street. The concerns of the time were reflected in Shakespeare's plays, many of which feature kings and queens struggling to hold onto their power or having it taken from them by someone considered evil. The question whether one person's ambition should or could be more important than the common good is clearly evident in Shakespeare's play, 'Macbeth". In Act II, Scene I, Macbeth's ambitious thoughts are slowly forcing him to commit.
In the Shakespearean era, Witches were associated with the dark and death. They were said by many Christian countries to be agents of Satan and performing evil acts at night. When Shakespeare wrote Macbeth, witchcraft and supernatural happenings were of high interest. King James I was highly engaged with the idea of witchcraft and even wrote a book about the topic. He used them for his play, and many of his audience would have believed in them as evil servants, trapping the power of men and women.
In Act II, Scene I, Shakespeare mentions witchcraft throughout the soliloquy. “Nature seems dead, and wicked dreams abuse. The curtain'd sleep; witchcraft celebrates. Pale Hecate's offerings, and wither'd murder,” Here Macbeth is using a direct link to “Hecate” who is the goddess of witches for the ancient Greeks.
