In Macbeth What Does "Fair Is Foul, Foul Is Fair Mean"?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    I've always interpreted that line (spoken by the witches) to indicate the state of confusion after the battle.  It also is a bit of foreshadowing that unnatural things are happening, which will culminate in Macbeth's murder of Duncan and his taking the throne.  (Foreshadowing:  Your sign of quality entertainment, as one on-line acquaintance used to write.)

    Hope this helps.  Anyone else have anything to offer?
