Character of Lady Macbeth In the course of this essay I will discuss the character of Lady Macbeth and the change in her character throughout the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare. We see her as being ambitious and ruthless at the start. Looking at her and Macbeths character she is the dominant one in the relationship. After a while we start to see a change in her character as she lacks strength and ambition‚ isn’t in charge or control of her relationship with Macbeth. She is being kept out of

Lady Macbeth: In the play “Macbeth” written by Shakespeare the character Lady Macbeth is duplicitous. “…look like th’innocent flower‚ But be the serpent under’t” (I‚ vi‚ 64-65). The snake and the flower was a reference towards Macbeth although it depicts Lady Macbeth as well. Since she is under the same curse as Macbeth‚ because she has the same name‚ she is equally affected by the witches as he is. He is captured into the prophecy of the witches and so is Lady Macbeth. She might look kind and

In Act IV‚ Scene II‚ where Lady Macduff appears‚ it is clear that Shakespeare intended her as a foil for Lady Macbeth. First of all‚ Lady Macduff cares about her son and has maternal instinct. She says‚ “To leave his wife‚ to leave his babes from whence himself does fly? … For the poor wren‚ the most diminutive of birds‚ will fight‚ her young ones in her nest‚ against the owl” (4.2.6-11). She is protective of her son and is a traditional mother figure; she says that even the birds care about their

were low on this chain of power‚ and men were on top. In fact‚ women were below horses; you couldn’t live without a good horse‚ but‚ you could live without a wife. Lady Macbeth was a woman before her time‚ she was caught between being today’s ambitious‚ powerful modern woman and a fragile creature of the Elizabethan era. In the first four acts of Macbeth‚ Lady Macbeth is vicious‚ overly ambitious‚ without conscience‚ and willing to do whatever it takes to get what she wants. In this case‚ she wants

Unsupportive Lady Macbeth Lady Macbeth is a very egocentric woman. She fails to have any concern over Macbeth’s interests‚ and she does not consider his decisions. This lack of care for her husband is shown many times throughout the play‚ and it is more predominantly shown in the first two acts. Lady Macbeth believes that Macbeth has the same viewpoints as her. Because of this‚ instead of asking if he wants to do something‚ she tells him what they are going to do. If Macbeth tries to protest
Premium Macbeth King Duncan Duncan I of Scotland
In my view‚ Lady Macbeth is far worse than Macbeth. Although they both think of murdering King Duncan as soon as they hear the witches’ prophecies‚ Macbeth thinks more about what he may or may not do‚ whereas Lady Macbeth immediately appeals to evil spirits to give her the strength to kill Duncan. When Macbeth first hears the prophecies‚ and when the first 2/3 of it comes true‚ he does think of killing the king‚ but also‚ towards the end of Act 1‚ Scene 3‚ he thinks that perhaps he doesn’t need

feel bad for not doing the wrong thing. This is how Lady Macbeth and the Witches entice Macbeth to commit crimes and murder so many people. By using his insecurities against him to bring out his bad side‚ they show what is truly beneath the surface. Despite influence of Lady Macbeth and the Witches‚ Macbeth is undeniably a villain because of his pleasure of killing for control‚ lack of remorse‚ and his ability to manipulate people to benefit himself. Macbeth tired to kill anyone who posed a threat
