List at least THREE ways Macduff and Macbeth are the same. List at least THREE ways they are opposites. Explain your reasoning.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Maduff and Macbeth

Similarities

1. They are both vengeful.

Macbeth plots revenge for Macduff because he refuses to be loyal to him, and in the process, he murders his family.

Macduff after he learns of the brutal murder of his family, begins to plot his revenge against Macbeth.

2. They both have tunnel vision.

Macbeth is so singularly focused on becoming King that nothing else matters, he is blinded by the truth and believes the witches' prophecy implicitly.

Macduff is so blinded by his rage and quest for revenge against Macbeth that he is blinded to so many dangers.

3. They are both Lords of Scotland

Macduff and Macbeth are both Lords of Scotland. Macbeth is the honorable Thane of Glamis, Macduff is also a Thane of Fife.

Differences

1. Macduff is a loyal and honorable man, Macbeth is not.

Macduff is said to be a noble man that is loyal to Duncan and refuses to believe Macbeth's claim that Duncan was murdered by his servants.

Macbeth is no noble man and loyal to nobody unless he stands to gain something from it. He is also portrayed as power hungry and brutal

2. Macduff put his country and people first, Macbeth put himself and his interests first.

Macduff is described as a virtuous and honorable man who always puts his country and people first in whatever decision he wanted to take. He was a people pleaser.

Macbeth wanted to be wealthy and powerful and would do anything to get it, including murder. He always thought of himself first.

3. Macbeth was impatient, Macduff was not

In Macbeth's mad quest for power, he was very impatient and because of this he did not think things through before doing them. His impatience showed when he put a lot of faith in the prophecy of the witches and was desperate to be king.

Macduff by contrast was very patient and bade his time while plotting how to stop Macbeth from being King and also taking revenge.

What was the vocabulary of the knowledge In Oedipus Rex

Ahat [919]

Oedipus Rex, also known by its Greek title, Oedipus Tyrannus (Ancient Greek: Οἰδίπους Τύραννος IPA: [oidípuːs týranːos]), or Oedipus the King, is an Athenian tragedy by Sophocles that was first performed around 429 BC.[1] Originally, to the ancient Greeks, the title was simply Oedipus (Οἰδίπους), as it is referred to by Aristotle in the Poetics. It is thought to have been renamed Oedipus Tyrannus to distinguish it from Oedipus at Colonus. In antiquity, the term “tyrant” referred to a ruler, but it did not necessarily have a negative connotation.[2][3][4]

Of his three Theban plays that have survived, and that deal with the story of Oedipus, Oedipus Rex was the second to be written. However, in terms of the chronology of events that the plays describe, it comes first, followed by Oedipus at Colonus and then Antigone.

Prior to the start of Oedipus Rex, Oedipus has become the king of Thebes while unwittingly fulfilling a prophecy that he would kill his father, Laius (the previous king), and marry his mother, Jocasta (whom Oedipus took as his queen after solving the riddle of the Sphinx). The action of Sophocles' play concerns Oedipus' search for the murderer of Laius in order to end a plague ravaging Thebes, unaware that the killer he is looking for is none other than himself. At the end of the play, after the truth finally comes to light, Jocasta hangs herself while Oedipus, horrified at his patricide and incest, proceeds to gouge out his own eyes in despair.

Oedipus Rex is regarded by many scholars as the masterpiece of ancient Greek tragedy. In his Poetics, Aristotle refers several times to the play in order to exemplify aspects of the genre.[5][6]
