Macbeth, General of war of King Duncan from Scotland, was very much appreciated in the court by his skills in the combats:

"SCENE II. A camp near Forres.

Alarum within. Enter DUNCAN, MALCOLM, DONALBAIN, LENNOX, with Attendants, meeting a bleeding Sergeant

DUNCAN

What bloody man is that? He can report,

As seemeth by his plight, of the revolt

The newest state.

MALCOLM

This is the sergeant

Who like a good and hardy soldier fought

'Gainst my captivity. Hail, brave friend!

Say to the king the knowledge of the broil

As thou didst leave it."

One day, back from a victorious battle, accompanied by his friend Banquo, he is surprised by three witches with the next prophecies: Macbeth would be Thane of Cawdor and king of Scotland, and the descendants of Banquo would inherit the crown. The witches vanish on air, leaving the two characters thinking about the foresight of the supernatural power.

Surprisingly, a messenger of the king informs him about his nomination as Cawdor's Thane, making true so, one of the prophecies of the witches. In view of that, Macbeth glimpses the very position of reign, which dominates his soul and brings his perdition.

So, seized by a deep and furious sense of ambition and encouraged by Lady Macbeth, wife ruled by the same vile values, Macbeth kills the king Duncan, in search of the possession of the crown:


SCENE V. Inverness. Macbeth's castle.

Enter LADY MACBETH, reading a letter

(...)

MACBETH

My dearest love,

Duncan comes here to-night.

LADY MACBETH

And when goes hence?

MACBETH

To-morrow, as he purposes.LADY MACBETH

O, never

Shall sun that morrow see!

Your face, my thane, is as a book where men

May read strange matters. To beguile the time,

Look like the time; bear welcome in your eye,

Your hand, your tongue: look like the innocent flower,

But be the serpent under't. He that's coming

Must be provided for: and you shall put

This night's great business into my dispatch;

Which shall to all our nights and days to come

Give solely sovereign sway and masterdom.

Can someone please help me ? What are the different explanations for Arachne's weaving?
anastassius [24]
She believed she was better than the goddess Athena, but Arachne thought she was better than the goddesses and gods. What she did was disrespectful; she weaved a thing of making fun of the gods and goddess.

I would maybe say disrespectful sometimes, better than Athena's though, and creative(?) Though no matter how creative she was it was no match for the goddesses and gods.

This is what I thought, I don't know if we are talking about the same thing, but I do hope this helps you! It was a little hard for me to explain with typing, so I'm sorry if this confuses you.
