In this episode, we’ll explore how Macbeth may have been written to gain favor with King James I after his ascension to the throne in 1603. We’ll discuss how the play’s Scottish setting and its portrayal of a Scottish king would have appealed to James, who was also James VI of Scotland. We’ll examine Shakespeare’s depiction of witches as evil, aligning with James I’s strong opposition to witchcraft. Finally, we’ll analyse how the play reinforces the triumph of the monarchy, suggesting that royal authority will always prevail, a theme likely designed to please the new king.
