Question

Whose restoration to the throne signals Scotland's return to order following Macbeth's reign of terror?

• A. Duncan
• B. Malcolm
• C. Macduff
• D. Banquo

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Malcolm

Malcolm

• The son of Duncan, whose restoration to the throne signals Scotland's return to order following Macbeth's reign of terror.

• Malcolm becomes a serious challenge to Macbeth with Macduff's aid (and the support of England).

• Prior to this, he appears weak and uncertain of his own power, as when he and Donalbain flee Scotland after their father's murder.
