How do the witches create tension in macbeth?

English

Shakespeare builds tension in the play by having the witches mysteriously appear and dissapear. Through dramatic irony he is giving the audience more information about the witches then the characters. They are thinking whether to trust the witches or not, but we already know that they shouldn’t.

Answer:

The witches in Shakespeare's "Macbeth" create tension by making predictions about the future, which keeps the audience interested. Besides, they represent the supernatural world, since people in those times believed in curses and witches. Thus, they have the power to appear and disappear, as well as to look real, although they are not. Finally, they speculate with the Macbeth and the audience's dismay, as they are as dark, fearful and horrible as the protagonist's soul.

Why did george mason oppose majority rule for commercial and navigation laws?
Kisachek [45]
His opinion was that considering there are only 5 southern states, and 8 northern states, the majority which would consist of norther states mostly doesn't understand to what extent southern countries are different when it comes to economy and this is why majority rule would lead to the detriment of southern states. He proposed that instead of a majority rule, the two thirds rule is implemented.
