Detailed explanation-1: -New to the ways of crime. In The Tragedy of Macbeth, Act 3, Macbeth’s guilt causing him to imagine he sees Banquo’s ghost at the banquet is an example of what? Internal conflict.
Detailed explanation-2: -It ironically foreshadows the future: Banquo’s ghost occupies Macbeth’s seat, as his descendants will occupy his throne – and ‘push us from our stools’ (line 82). It marks the beginning of the decline of Macbeth’s rule and power: he cannot keep calm on this important occasion of state, and almost reveals his guilt.
Detailed explanation-3: -During the banquet, Macbeth sees the ghost of Banquo sitting at his place at the table. He is horrified. Lady Macbeth reassures the guests that it is a momentary fit and tells Macbeth to stop. The ghost disappears and Macbeth is calm.
Detailed explanation-4: -Macbeth’s fear of Banquo’s suspicions about his involvement in Duncan’s murder, his desire to remove someone who was present when the witches’ prophesies were made, and his attempt to prevent the fulfillment of the prophecy about Banquo’s descendants becoming kings.
Detailed explanation-5: -How does the incident with Banquo’s ghost convey Macbeth’s inner conflict? Macbeth’s inner conflict is that he can’t handle the murders because he is too good of a person that the guilt is killing him.
