From the battles in the tragedy of macbeth, act v, what can you conclude about warfare in macbeth’s day? explain why each choice seems correct or incorrect. a. soldiers never faced each other one on one. b. all fighting was done in the open, and the concept of camouflage was unknown. c. the telephone and telegraph were the chief means of sending messages. d. swords were among the weapons used in close combat.

Warfare during Macbeth's day occurs in the open ground while the concept of camouflage was still unknown. also, swords were the main weapon of choice for the fights.

Explanation:

The actual war scene in Act V of William Shakespeare's tragedy "Macbeth" occurs from scene vii though the built up to it can be seen in the previous scenes. Also, the final fight is between Macbeth and the Macduff and Malcolm on the other side.

The kind of warfare that can be found in the play shows that wars are commonly fought in the open spaces where the armies of both sides will attack each other altogether. The scene is a huge mass of constant killing and fighting, chaos and blood all around. And considering the time period of the play being the 11th century Scotland, it is only probable that swords are used for the fighting and nothing else, not guns or modern warfare ammunition.

a. Soldiers never faced each other one on one.

This statement is false as during the time of wars, especially wars such as in "Macbeth's" time, soldiers fought each other face to face, for they need to be in close quarters to hurt and try to kill one another.

b. All fighting was done in the open, and the concept of camouflage was unknown.

This is true for fighting is done only in the open space so that everyone can kill as much as they can, and the mass fighting also ensures that whoever is strong can kill more and more easily.

c. The telephone and telegraph were the chief means of sending messages.

The play being during the 11th century, there is no evidence of telephones or telegrams. Their inventions were not even heard of, nor are the people familiar with these items. Rather, messages are relayed through messengers and it takes a number of days for the message to be received by the other side.

d. Swords were among the weapons used in close combat.

This is true for swords were the only weapon they can think of and use during those times. Also, with the soldiers in close quarters, the swords are one of the options best used for close combat. Guns and bombs etc are just the modern warfare machines, yet unheard and unknown and even undiscovered or invented in the 11th century Scotland.
