- Why do you think Shakespeare shows Macbeth taken in by the witches prophecy?
Firstly, Shakespeare makes a point in Macbeth's confidence, due to his full trust in the witches' prophecy he believed that he was invencible. So, when he sees that he can actually be defeated this is something that the audience is expecting to see, so it adds to the dramatic effect of the play. Secondly, I believe that tragic heroes, no matter what they do, we always feel some sort of sympathy for them. In this case, I believe that Shakespeare is trying to show his weakness (he trusted someone he shouldn't, he was way too confident, all of this was the result of his ambition that completely blinded his judgement)
- What might Shakespeare be applying by Macbeth's character?
As it has been previously stated, Shakespeare was trying to show Macbeth that he placed his trust in the wrong place (this had also a didactic purpose for the audience). Moreover, I believe that this is when his eyes are unfolded, ambition falls, and he realized that he was a puppet of the witches. He didn't question her words and he did everything they expected him to do. Bear in mind that in elizabethan/jacobean times, Witches were believed to be plotting agaist the king (since the king was the representation of God on earth, and witches the loyal servants of the devil).
- What might be Shakespeare be applying to the witches' power?
It is shown that they don't actually have power, rather they know a lot of information and they use that information to manipulate people like Macbeth.
- Is he suggesting that Macbeth might be a victim of mysterious evil forces?
Defenitly, although he is guilty because he did everything he shouldn't, but still we can see that the witches manipulated him. They kindle the fire and Macbeth did the rest. So the fault is equally diveded, in my opinion.
Answer:
One reason why other scientists criticized Ocean Ramsey was that they felt she was promoting through social media that it is okay to swim with the shark and it was irresponsible.
Explanation:
A deep sea diver Ocean Ramsey came in extremely close proximity with a great white shark in the Pacific Ocean and was even daring enough to touch the shark in a viral video she posted on her Instagram.
She described the shark which she called Deep Blue as mellow and beautiful and the estimated length is 20 feet and weighing about 6,000 pounds while believed to be pregnant.
According to Michael Dormier, who is the founding director of the Marine Conservation Science Institute was of the <u>opinion that of all the breeds of sharks that were not dangerous, Ocean Blue had to pose and touch the great white shark and also indirectly let people on social media feel that is safe and okay to be in close contact with such a dangerous sea creature.</u>

Answer:
In case of war against a major power, Pericles had long settled on a military strategy that emphasized Athens's two greatest strengths: its navy and its financial wealth, which supported each other. ...
