Examine the presentation of disturbed characters in Act 1 of Macbeth We are first presented with a disturbed mind in Act 1 Scene 3‚ where Macbeth’s first words echo the witches - “fair is foul and foul is fair”. If we look closely at this it tells us that things are not always what they seem which can really indicate a disturbed mind because somebody could be disturbed and we couldn’t know because we as people cannot look into somebody’s mind.

that the mind is the brain or some other part or function of the body‚ but this is incorrect. The brain is a physical object that can be seen with the eyes and that can be photographed or operated on in surgery. The mind‚ on the other hand‚ is not a physical object.

most memorable characters‚ Miss Havisham. Jilted at the alter by her one true love‚ Dickens portrayed Havisham as an old spinster‚ her life wasted away trying to gain revenge on all men.
