Similarities Between Macbeth And Scar

Another similarities between Macbeth include the action occurring after the murder of Duncan. Just like in The Lion King where Scar replenishes the fruitful resources of the Pride Lands into a land of complete scarcity and fear, Macbeth portrays the same actions. “Alas, poor country! Almost afraid to know itself,” cried Ross. “It cannot Be called our mother, but our grave, where nothing, But who knows nothing, is once seen to smile; Where sighs and groans and shrieks that rend the air Are made, not marked; where violent sorrow seems A modern ecstasy. The dead man’s knell Is there scarce asked for who, and good men’s lives Expire before the flowers in their caps, Dying or ere they sicken.” (Act IV, Scene III). Ross’s sickening image-filled
Duncan reigned as the king of Scotland while Mufasa portrayed the king of the Pride Lands, and after their deaths, “unnatural” events occurred in darkness. “And I will put that business in your bosoms, Whose execution takes your enemy off, Grapples you to the heart and love of us, Who wear our health but sickly in his life, Which in his death were perfect” (Act III, Scene I). In this scene, Macbeth talks to the two (later three) murderers about their future job of murdering Banquo, a threat to Macbeth’s rising power to the crown. In the movie, The Lion King, Scar orders three hyenas to kill his brother Mufasa and his son Simba, who overtake the throne of the kingdom. In the same way, there is a comparison that shows tar the villainous character of Scar and Scar’s greed lives within Macbeth.. This realizations displays how jealously and envy, prime factors in a villain's rise and fall, is present when attempting to seize power. This displays Macbeth’s true colors of Macbeth which complements Macbeth’s black heart. Not only this, supernatural effects appear after the death of the kings in the stories. In Macbeth, “Thou seest the heavens, as troubled with man’s act, Threatens his bloody stage. By th' clock ’tis day, And yet dark night strangles the travelling lamp. Is’t night’s predominance or the day’s shame That darkness does the face of Earth entomb When living light should kiss
