3 0

Malgudi Days, written by R.K Narayan, chronicles the lives of people in the fictional town of Malgudi. The stories, which share the lives of everyone from entrepreneurs to beggars, all take place in and near this Indian village. The village is a place where most people are haunted by illiteracy and unemployment. Among the stories the reader meets an astrologer, a gatekeeper, and a young man yearning to pass the examinations. There are also animals including a forlorn dog who befriends a blind man and a ferocious tiger (perhaps a hint of Narayan's short novel, A Tiger for Malgudi). Above all there is a pervasive irony that reminded me of other short story stylists from O'Henry to Chekhov and Gogol. More often a character's dreams or expectations do not lead to the results he desires. This keeps the reader guessing as to what the next story will show in the lives of people who become endlessly fascinating, if only for the reason that you have met them before in your own town.

Answer:

Lines 1-28 in the first act of the play "Macbeth" reveal that Macbeth is insecure and fears the consequences that Duncan's murder could trigger.

Macbeth thinks of some reasons for not murdering Duncan. The reasons are:

Duncan is your relative and friend
Macbeth is a sudite and must obey the king
Duncan is a good king
Duncan never gave Macbeth any reason to kill him.

Explanation:

"Macbeth" is a play written by Shakespeare and tells the story of how Macbeth killed King Duncan and usurped the throne, after receiving a prophecy that he would be king.

Macbeth, is not a character that shows confidence in his actions, and the guilt for this murder haunts him for years, during his reign. In lines 1-28, in act 1, we can see all of Macbeth's insecurity in murdering the king. He is afraid of what this murder might cause. For that reason, try to find reasons that might convince him not to kill Duncan. The reasons are:

Duncan is your relative and friend
Macbeth is a sudite and must obey the king
Duncan is a good king
Duncan never gave Macbeth any reason to kill him.
