At the end of the play‚ Malcolm describes Macbeth as a butcher. Do you think Macbeth is merely presented as a butcher? I somewhat disagree with Malcom’s view that Macbeth is ‘merely’ portrayed as a butcher‚ but rather has an excessive ambition influenced by other characters enabling him to endure ‘butcher’ tendencies. It seems unjust for Malcolm to describe Macbeth as a “dead butcher” because at the beginning of the play he is a Scottish nobleman and shows courage and bravery in battle. He killed

The play Macbeth’ is a very tragic one. It is about the downfall of a hero who is led by temptation to mass murder and cruelty.

and terrifying. Mr. Zylco is a representation of Polyphemus (the Cyclops from the Odyssey) and is a fallen butcher with a pet bird who has taken to cannibalism in these financially difficult times. Considering this was originally intended to be a “children’s” play I was shocked by the disturbing image of this character. If I were to do a play I would first do some research into both butchers and famous known cannibals before making any artistic calls on his overall appearance and manner. I would also
