Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: In Act IV of Macbeth, the witches show Macbeth several images of children, but what is most important in foreshadowing Macbeth’s downfall is the image of a parade of king’s all from Banquo’s line with image or allusion to Macbeth. Macbeth, in this story, will have no legacy.
Detailed explanation-2: -Predictions about threats to Macbeth In Act 4, Scene 1, the witches make a number of predictions that Macbeth interprets as being in his favor. For example, they predict that no one borne of a woman will harm him.
Detailed explanation-3: -Act 4 concerns Macbeth’s growing fears about Macduff’s loyalty, which are increased by the witches’ prophecies and Macduff’s decision to go to England. Ultimately, Macbeth secures his own downfall by murdering Macduff’s family, as Macduff is now desperate for revenge.
Detailed explanation-4: -This scene can be roughly divided into three: the Witches’ casting of a spell; the supernatural answers to Macbeth’s demands; and Macbeth’s return to the cold world of political and social reality. The scene’s structure deliberately recalls the opening scenes of the play. Once more, Macbeth’s destiny is in question.
Detailed explanation-5: -The murder of Lady Macduff and her young son in Act 4, scene 2, marks the moment in which Macbeth descends into utter madness, killing neither for political gain nor to silence an enemy, but simply out of a furious desire to do harm.
