Detailed explanation-1: -Macbeth, tragedy in five acts by William Shakespeare, written sometime in 1606–07 and published in the First Folio of 1623 from a playbook or a transcript of one.
Detailed explanation-2: -Shakespeare wrote Macbeth as a tribute to King James I, who became king a few years before the play was first performed. Shakespeare also wanted to caution against abuses of power and the instability which follows from political violence.
Detailed explanation-3: -Macbeth, the shortest of his tragedies, is emblematic of this description. Likely written in 1606, Macbeth is considered one of Shakespeare’s most topical plays for a number of reasons.
Detailed explanation-4: -Shakespeare’s ‘Scottish Play’ was probably written in 1606, just three years after King James I (VI of Scotland) was crowned as Elizabeth I’s successor, and so undoubtedly seems to be paying homage to the succession of the Scottish King to the English throne.
