Describe Macbeth's characters

13 comments:

  1. The main character in the play is Macbeth, a strong man, good at fighting, but cruel. Three witch sisters declared guessed he would become the father of kings in Scotland. From that he does make usurped ambition to become king. He is good fighter but he is not a good King because he solved the problem by force, and he has no political experience.

  10. Lady Macbeth is Macbeth's wife, a wicked woman. She encouraged her husband kill Duncan and reave crown from Duncan, she was more ruthless than Macbeth, but ended up going to the death by suicide. However, she had true love with Macbeth. Macbeth's wife as the co-operation to carry out the evil, this makes the story more compelling.

  12. Macbeth was an powerful, strong and ambitious man. However he was also silly when couldn't decide for his own life. First he believed in the witches' prophecies twice and was greatly influenced by his wife. As a result, he turned into a murderer and cruel king, even though he hadn't had such a thought about the throne before. In the end of the story, he died ashamedly. What a bitter irony for such brave man.

    Macbeth's wife was an cruel, selfish woman. She used her husband as an technique to achieve power. After all, she received an appropriate ending for her sins.
