1. August 15 may also be the day on which he became King after his forces killed King Duncan near Elgin probably on August 14, 1040.

2. Shakespeare’s play, ending in Macbeth’s death, takes place over a year whereas in reality, Macbeth ruled for 17 years.

3. Macbeth calls Duncan “cousin” in the play though it is not certain they were first cousins.

4. Chroniclers of the time described Macbeth as a “liberal king” with “fair, yellow hair and tall” and having a “ruddy countenance”.

5. Scotland was so peaceful under his rule that Macbeth made a pilgrimage to Rome in 1050.

6. The name “Macbeth” (or MacBheatha or Mac Bethad) means ‘son of life’ in Gaelic.

7. Macbeth is the only play by Shakespeare that includes the word ‘rhinoceros’.

8. Nancy MacBeth was leader of the Alberta Liberal Party in Canada from 1998-2001.

9. The origins of the superstition against saying “Macbeth” in a theatre are unclear. One idea is that Shakespeare took some lines for his three witches from a real coven who cursed the play.

10. The role of Macbeth is 719 lines long, which is only half the length of Hamlet.

Can someone give me the answer to this question?Williams's poem and Brueghel's painting share the same subject. In your
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The poem creates a much more powerful response.

Explanation:

It describes what happens to Icarus far more than in the painting. While the painting may give a sense of sadness at the fact that nobody is noticing the boy drowning. The poem creates a much stronger feeling, and that feeling is dread, about what is happening to Icarus, rather than what the people around are doing.

What is the most important factor in determining the climate of a region
belka [17]
One thing that you have to keep in mind is the altitude. Another thing that you have to keep in mind is the proximity to the closenesss of water because they vary in the amount of condensation. Wind patterns matter because the amount of wind you have determines the temperature. If the temperature is blazing hot most likely a desert. If their is so much wind that you can harness it most likely a field where plants and animals live. Another place that hot but has alot of condensation is the jungle. Because they have lots of leaves that direct windflow through the entire place. Ocean currents matter because the waves erode the side of the land slowly destroying it. One day all land will be under the sea. Also if the water currents are nearby their is always the chance of flooding which can be good or bad. Like at cairo eqypt their nile floods once a year making rich soil to grow food and crops on. But if the floooding is to bad then the chances are the water might destroy things like my power company for instance. My power has been out for 2 days already. Using generator.
