    studying Shakespeare’s Macbeth in class‚ I found it difficult to understand majority of what was being said in the play. So to prevent future audiences (senior students learning Macbeth) from assuming‚ but to better understand more of the meaning under the text‚ I reinterpreted the Lady Macbeth scenes to advance the audiences understanding in the characters and the drive behind the decisions made to form the play. The purpose in selecting the two scenes of Lady Macbeth was based on the fact that

    acquire and maintain an affluential reputation. This central theme is apparent in Shakespeare’s play Macbeth‚ which is further translated into Billy Morrissett’s Scotland‚ PA. Although Macbeth and Lady Macbeth’s desire to “achieve absolute monarchical authority is absurdly reduced to the McBeths’ desperate bourgeois ambitions‚” in Scotland‚ PA‚ the main concept remains intact (Hoefer 154). Essentially‚ Macbeth is transformed from a tragic play about the uncontrollable desperation for monarchial power kindled

    Lady Macbeth - William ShakespeareLady Macbeth is in a position of power over Macbeth. She tells him what to do and what not to do. She directs him and his emotions in Act 2 Scene II.

This shows us how weak Macbeth is compared to Lady Macbeth who has the power and makes her husband think the same way as she thinks. I would show that power clearly by standing on the higher level of the stage than

    fiend-like queen.’ The images portrayed by Macbeth and Lady Macbeth change dramatically throughout the play. I believe that the quote ’this dead butcher and his fiend-like queen’ is not an accurate assessment of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. Although there were elements of butchery in Macbeths behavior‚ he also had many strengths. He was heroic‚ brave‚ and ambitious and was a good husband however‚ his behavior changed throughout the play. At the beginning Macbeth was a respected‚ loyal‚ patriotic soldier

    The Tragedy of Macbeth Shakespeare shows how Macbeth turns from being an average man to an evil one. Lady Macbeth and Macbeth both display characteristics that are not female or male.

    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

One of the impressions that the audience get when they first meet Lady Macbeth is that she is very ambitious. In Act 1‚ Scene 5 when Macbeth enters she
