What would we be able to say about Macduff? i feel like he wasn't overly significant other than the whole born-of-woman thing, which is more about Macbeth than Macduff

we can explore the idea that he juxtaposes Macbeth because he's far from being ambitious however still very powerful. He's so noble and loyal to the degree that he puts the welfare of Scotland ahead of the welfare of his own family

Also, you can compare the tone of macduff saying "my pretty little chickens"( showing affection) and the tone of Macbeth saying "my dearest chuck"( belittling lady Macbeth)

Macbeth is shown to be a Machiavellian tyrannical ruler. For example, Shakespeare writes 'bleed, bleed poor country', which suggests the country is wounded under Macbeth's rule. Furthermore, the repetition of 'bleed' emphasizes this, and compares Scotland to a soldier of the battlefield.

The witches are presented to be a powerful, influential force whom convert 'noble' characters into 'tyrants' and 'hell-hounds'. The witches speak in trochaic tetrameter which perhaps reflects the way they are different to the other characters and outlines them as the supernatural. The Jacobean were especially afraid of witches, and in particular, James 1 even wrote a book about witches, called daemonologie.

In "A Christmas Carol," readers are given a character who is so detached from society that he feels his only responsibilities are his self-serving financial matters. This early description of Scrooge is Dickens' condemnation of the wealthy industrial class that emerged in the 19th century, particularly during the industrial revolution, who abused their social privilege and took advantage of those in "need and want."
