The prophecies meant for Banquo are phrased in a paradoxial manner ("lesser than Macbeth, and greater; not so happy, yet much happier). Why do you think is this the case?​

Sagot :

Answer:

This prophecy, spoken by the first witch, means that Banquo will be “lesser” in royal ranks but will be “greater”, because he will be the father of the future kings. This is spoken by the second witch who prophesizes the fact that Banquo will not be as happy as Macbeth, since he will not be the king.
