I deem Macbeth to be guiltier than Lady Macbeth. Factually‚ Macbeth is shown to be more sensitive than Lady Macbeth‚ because Lady Macbeth seems to be very inclined when proposing Macbeth to assassinate King Duncan; while Macbeth seems to be unsure and tensed about the idea. In addition‚ Macbeth’s reaction to assassinating King Duncan despite of his loyalty to him and his appreciation towards him for receiving so much honour from shows that he is sensitive to killing or causing any harm to people

a huge role in society. Even through these roles have changed over time‚ history is full of strong women. Lady Macbeth can be described as one of these strong women‚ who in fact played a very different role to other women of her time. She was determined‚ obsessed and ambitious.

Qualities that were completely opposite to women of her time. Women of the Elizabethan

connection between Lady Macbeth and greed helps the audience understand the driving force of Lady Macbeth’s actions in Shakespeare’s play‚ Macbeth. After Lady Macbeth reads of the witches’ prophecies for her husband‚ she becomes obsessed with her own greed for the crown. Greed creates a monster out of Lady Macbeth and as she calls to the evil spirits‚ she says‚ “unsex me here‚ and fill me from the crown to the toe with direst cruelty!” (1. 5. 39-41). In this quote‚ Lady Macbeth is praying to evil

In act two of Macbeth‚ Lady Macbeth is used by William Shakespeare to digress from the normal gender rules common for that era‚ while at the same time keeping some of the key traits of womanhood‚ all to show that while inherently different and sometimes similar to men‚ women will always fall back on their subservient and cowardly ways. As the planning for Duncan’s murder progresses it seems like Lady Macbeth is the one urging and fighting Macbeth to agree with the plan‚ which is unusual because usually

Lady Macbeth is a villain always has been always will be. Well at first Lady Macbeth is the manipulative and twisted villain. However people’s opinion on the innocence of Lady Macbeth varies from person to person. After watching both Rupert Goold’s and Justin Kurzel adaptations I see both sides of the argument.

Although there was disagreement after that notion‚ I emphasized that there were a lot of dark

interpretation I get from this particular scene. Is that of a paradox because it shows just how slimily Lady Macbeth truly is. She is showing extreme affection to Macbeth‚ meanwhile she is forcing Macbeth to kill Duncan at the same time. She is also filling his mind with thoughts of her always being by his side. When really she only wants to be queen. Whether it be by the darkness in the room‚ or by Lady Macbeth’s bossy tone‚ you can tell she has other motives in store for the future. Step 2: Setting
