Appearance And Reality In Macbeth

The way people act on the outside and who they truly are within may be two entirely unexpected things. Some may change on the grounds that they feel they try not to fit in. Others put on a show to be something they genuinely aren't. Regardless of which way you take a look at it, on the off chance that you attempt to act like somebody you're not, reality will come around. "Fair is foul and foul is fair," is a powerful line used throughout the entire play. The meaning behind this is that appearances are often deceptive, and that things are different from what they appear to be. This line also resembles with the inconsistency between appearance and reality. This is what happened in William Shakespeare's play, MacBeth. Banquo, MacBeth, and Lady MacBeth each project an image, but as time passes. The realities of their true personalities begin to rise.
We also see this in Lady Macbeth. Lady Macbeth leaves the impression of a solid willed and intense individual - a perfect wife. As the play develops, Macbeth becomes more grounded and Lady Macbeth, begins to give up hope and commits suicide. Lady Macbeth turns out to be the direct opposite of a perfect wife. She says, "A little water clears us of this deed" (Act II, Scene II). Yet towards the end, her soul makes her frantic and she sleepwalks, washing her hands and saying "Out, damned spot!" (Act VI, Scene I) This alludes to the blood she envisions to see staring her in the face as a consequence. Macbeth is much like the play Othello, also written by Shakespeare. Othello also has the same theme, appearance versus reality. In the play, Iago appears to be loyal to Othello but really he is against him. Throughout the play Iago convinces Othello that Desdemona and Cassio are sleeping, when in reality they are not. In the end, Othello kills his wife and he kills himself all because of Iago and what he really did versus the reality of his
