    Renowned play, “Macbeth” written by William Shakespeare in 1606, is one of the most prestigious dramas to date. Valiant and truthful soldier, Macbeth experiences dire changes of evil, in order to gain his thriftless ambition for king. His immoral change might have been influenced by Lady Macbeth and the witches’ prophecies suggesting Macbeth is a tragic hero who had no intent of abhorrent deeds. Once honourable Macbeth pledges glory to his king and gained honour through valiant accomplishments. Fear strikes him as his mind starts to deteriorate into utter chaos by his treacherous actions. His self-conscious mind transforms him into a superstitious villain who suffers in despair as he implicates regret.…

    “A tragic hero is a literary character who makes a judgment error that inevitably leads to his/her own destruction” as said by Aristotle, a Greek philosopher and a scientist who came up with the characteristics of tragic hero. William Shakespeare’s Macbeth is a play about a tragic hero named Macbeth who was told about his prophecy by three witches and one of them was him being king, in which he succeeds by killing all in his way. The term tragic hero applies to Macbeth. Through three witch’s predications, Lady Macbeth’s encouragements, and the fact that he is a courageous man.…

    Ross, a thane, walks outside the castle with an old man. They discuss the strange and ominous happenings of the past few days: it is daytime, but dark outside; last Tuesday, an owl killed a falcon; and Duncan’s beautiful, well-trained horses behaved wildly and ate one another. Macduff emerges from the castle and tells Ross that Macbeth has been made king by the other lords, and that he now rides to Scone to be crowned. Macduff adds that the chamberlains seem the most likely murderers, and that they may have been paid off by someone to kill Duncan. Suspicion has now fallen on the two princes, Malcolm and Donalbain, because they have fled the scene. Macduff returns to his home at Fife, and Ross departs for Scone to see the new king’s coronation.

    After all the series of events that happened in Act 1 I started becoming interested in the play. It got very exciting, and I actually wanted to read! My prediction is that Macbeth is going to do anything it takes to be King throughout the play, and that is going to get him into a lot of trouble, more than he bargained for. I’m hoping that he see’s there is more to life than being the King and I hope he doesn’t kill Duncan.…

    Macbeth's vaulting ambition, though it is what brings him to his height of power, it is also what leads him to his downfall. Vaulting Ambition is one of Macbeth's flaws; it disables him to achieve his utmost goals and forces him to face his fate. Without this ambition, though, Macbeth never would have been able to achieve his power as King of Scotland or have been able to carry out his evil deeds. In these instances, ambition helped Macbeth do what he wanted to do. But, consequently, Macbeth's ambition has another face and is what leads him to his tragic downfall. Had he not been so enveloped with becoming King and remaining powerful, he would not have continued to kill innocent people in order to keep his position. It was because of these killings and his overbearing attitude that caused him to be overthrown and killed himself. Macbeth, at the beginning of the play seems to be a very noble person.…

    One would say that being bipolar in today’s society isn’t that bad of a mental disease, but when you throw that mental disease into the power of a potential king, you live on a day to day basis and never know what could happen in the blink of an eye. Bipolar Disorder is one of the oldest mental disorders and its symptoms have been molded by differing theories over time until it actually had its own classification. For many years, Bipolar Disorder was linked to Schizophrenia. The founder of this disorder, Francois Baillarger, was finally successful in separating the two disorders and Emeril Krapelin finally acclaimed the title "manic depression" in 1913.…

    Macbeth Justification

    In this production I am acting as Lady Macbeth, she is often portrayed as an ambitious and deceitful woman whose obsessive behaviour for power leads her to her own destruction. In this scene, Act 5 scene 1, Lady Macbeth enters carrying a light unaware of the doctor or the gentlewans presence. I decided to use an old fashion candle as my light and kept my gaze straight ahead in an attempt to capture the gaze of the audience. Throughout this entrance I keep my facial expressions tedious to illustrate her discomfort, how she has become detached of this world. I dull my voice to make it seem as if I am in a hypnotic state, then as Lady Macbeth continues to fidget with her hands I raise my voice to seem as if I am in distress. I changed the tone of my voice to fit the characters emotions as I say “Fei, my lord, fie! A soldier and afeard?” I make my voice almost angry as if I can’t believe he can be afraid when he is a solider and meant to be brave. I continue to end my lines with a guilty voice as I talk about the innocent dead King Duncan. My voice remains unchanged as I talk of the thanes wife who was also murdered. I begin to shake as I look down to my invisible blood stained hands. I have to continue walking, shaking and rubbing my hands while the gentlewoman and doctor quietly talk about my sanity. My character starts to loose herself in her anxiety and cry’s desperately because of her guilt. I continue passing and shaking till my next line were I begin talking to my husband. I change to my voice to a more panicked tone as I try to reassure him that we are safe and cannot be caught because Banquo is dead. I continue to look at my husband till I hear a knocking; I change my facial expression to a worried look. I quicken my speech as I frantically try to lead Macbeth away so we can return to our bed before anyone finds us. I end the scene clinging to my husband’s invisible hand while we hurry to our room.…

    Imagine a nice big cake at a birthday party, and the birthday boy or girl will do anything to get that slice. Power in the tragedy Macbeth by William Shakespeare is like that cake, people are hungry for power and will go out of their wits to gain and or maintain it. Power in Macbeth is gained through violence, betrayal, and of course prophecies. Power is gained through violence because Macbeth murders people so he can have his place in royalty. Betrayal is a way power is gained because Macbeth betrays his closest friend Banquo as well as the King Duncan. And power is maintained as well as gained through the witches prophecies because they all turned out to be true.…

    Destiny and fate are very similar, often both are thought of as unchangeable. However, one’s fate is not predetermined; it is determined by one’s own decisions and actions. In William Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth, characters’ fates are decided by their own actions, however those actions are manipulated. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth’s decisions are predominantly influenced by the witches. Although, the witches manipulate Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, their fates are determined by their own actions.…
