Which lines in this excerpt from act III of Shakespeare’s Macbeth refer to Macbeth’s insecurity because of the threats to his ki

ngship?
LADY MACBETH: Naught's had, all's spent, Where our desire is got without content: 'Tis safer to be that which we destroy, Than, by destruction, dwell in doubtful joy. (Enter Macbeth.) How now, my lord! why do you keep alone, Of sorriest fancies your companions making; Using those thoughts which should indeed have died With them they think on? Things without all remedy Should be without regard: what's done is done.

MACBETH: We have scotch'd the snake, not kill'd it; She'll close, and be herself; whilst our poor malice Remains in danger of her former tooth. But let the frame of things disjoint, Both the worlds suffer, Ere we will eat our meal in fear, and sleep In the affliction of these terrible dreams That shake us nightly: better be with the dead, Whom we, to gain our peace, have sent to peace, Than on the torture of the mind to lie In restless ecstasy. Duncan is in his grave; After life's fitful fever he sleeps well; Treason has done his worst: nor steel, nor poison, Malice domestic, foreign levy, nothing, Can touch him further.

The lines in the above excerpt from Act III of Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” that refer to Macbeth’s insecurity because of the threats to his kingship are:

“That shake us nightly: better be with the dead, Whom we, to gain our peace, have sent to peace, Than on the torture of the mind to lie In restless ecstasy.”

In Act III Macbeth shares his feeling of uncomfortable to Lady Macbeth after the murder of king Duncan. He says that though one of the hurdles in his way of attaining the throne has been cleared, still there lies a lot of them in his path. He explains his anxiety and fear that they have invited after murdering Duncan. He now assumes that the death of Duncan has helped Duncan enter the world of peace and by committing the murder Macbeth and his wife Lady Macbeth had entered the life of threat and fear.

How did world war 2 change the lives of women and African Americans?
zmey [24]
The massive scope of World War 2 drew millions of American men into the armed services very quickly.  As a result, women had to leave the home and go to work - partly to replace the income lost when their husbands, fathers, brothers, etc. went to war, are partly to help support the war effort at home.  Suddenly, women who had never considered working outside the home were working together in factories, and businesses, learning trades and skills that had been primarily reserved for men up until that point.  By the time the war ended, an entire generation of women had come to realize that they could be more independent than they had ever imagined.  They liked earning their own money and enjoyed the mental and physical stimulation of leaving home and going to work every day.  Because of their important contributions, women were also now valuable members of the work force and employers didn't want to lose these good employees.  And since employers commonly paid women less than men to do the same job, retaining women in professional positions after the war made good business sense for business owners.  African Americans were impacted in several different ways by World War 2.  Arguably the greatest external factor on blacks was their intermingling (if not integration) with whites and others during the war.  In many, many cases whites from rural parts of the country had never interacted with blacks in any meaningful way, and they certainly had not been in the life and death struggles presented on a daily basis of being in a war.  A result of this racial mixing was the deterioration of long-held prejudices and greater acceptance of blacks by whites in normal society. This is not to say,  racial barriers ceased to exist.  In fact the civil rights movement, which led to many of those barriers being broken down didn't begin to capture the popular imagination for 20 more years and even today, almost 70 years since the end of world war 2, African Americans do not have equal status to whites in many aspects of our society and they still have fight for their rights on a daily basis.
