How Does Macbeth Change Throughout The Play

William Shakespeare’s Macbeth is a tragedy in which the main characters are obsessed by the desire for power. Macbeth’s aspiration for power blinds him to the ethical implications of his dreadful acts. The more that Shakespeare’s Macbeth represses his murderous feelings, the more he is haunted by them. By analyzing his hallucinations it is possible to trace his deteriorating mental state and the trajectory of his ultimate fall. Throughout the play Macbeth is never satisfied with himself. He feels the need to keep committing crime in order to keep what he wants most: his kingship. The harder Macbeth tries to change his fate the more he tends to run into his fate. His ambition and struggle for power was Macbeth’s tragic flaw in the play.

Do you think other people can go through changes, whether in a story, play or even in real life? Throughout the story of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth, you can find that people go through a change. Changes in men or woman can be horrible or righteous.

In some instances, men tend to fall under the rule of strong woman.  Lady Macbeth rejects her womanly, submissive traits in order to the stronger character and Macbeth's backbone. Macbeth is a great example on how women influence men because he is insecure and a coward. I will show how without Lady Macbeth, Macbeth would have lived and prospered. Lady Macbeth is very good at manipulating her husband, as the play movesalongg she become more bloodthirsty than Macbeth and she encourages him to use his power for violence. In this play author, William Shakespeare, is trying to show how easy it is for evil to penetrate your head and make you act out. The play Macbeth is centered in Scottland with characters fighting over the power of the land with Macbeth ending up as king of Scottland. In the end however Macbeth's guilt over comitting murder makes him go delusional, showing how weak his mind really is.

Lady Macbeth uses Macbeth’s greatest quality against him, cowardness. As seen in early scenes in act 1 this general is far from a coward. In fact rather complete opposite due to his peers thinking of him as double killing the dead. This hits him rather hard and his wife knows this, which in turns makes his actions fall less about what he wants and more toward acceptance. He lets acceptance of others fill his mind and leading him to a demonic state of mind.

Macbeth goes from being a loyal and honorable soldier to a murderer and traitor. At the beginning of act 1 we hear him being described as “valiant”, “brave” and “noble”. Duncan, the king is so impressed by his nobility and bravery that he proclaims Macbeth the “Thane of Cawdor” .Macbeth is pretty much respected everywhere he goes, but the decisions he made start to change the heads of the people that trusted him and respected him. Macbeth starts to listen to some witches who greeted him hailing him the “Thane of Cawdor”, and the “Thane of Glamis” and by saying “Macbeth shalt be King hereafter”.

Macbeth is about play about how inner problems consisting of ambition, guilt and heartlessness. These problems create consequences that can conform any hero to villain. These inner problems are shown through the many themes and symbols that are portrayed throughout the text which also leads to outer problems. Throughout the text, Macbeth displays the conflict between ambition and loyalty, guilt resulting in destructive behaviour and Macbeth’s actions resulting in him being hated by others. Macbeth’s ambition overcomes his loyalty, leading him to commit regicide.

The story Macbeth being a lot of interesting and exciting drama to the audience. In my opinion this script in modern times, shows the human greed for power and respect. It shows how people cannot be happy with what they currently have. That is why Macbeth loses his and his wife’s live over greed.

Lady Macbeth is one of the most interesting and unexpected female characters in William Shakespeare’s literature. She is a much stronger, ruthless, and ambitious character than her husband, Macbeth. Unlike Macbeth, she lacks the humanity. Lady Macbeth goes through a series of changes regarding her mental and spiritual life, which a woman during the Elizabethan era would not go through. Throughout the novel, as Lady Macbeth manipulates her husband going after the crown and maintain his authority, she experiences a series of changes to her mental and spiritual life.

“What’s done cannot be undone,”(V,1,2188) are the words of a guilty, manipulative, and regretful character in Shakespeare's masterpiece Macbeth. That character is Lady Macbeth. The phrase “behind every great man is a great woman” is truly proven in this play. Lady Macbeth was the one who had Macbeth gain all the power she desired. She was the great woman who was behind the mighty king.

In the beginning of the play, Macbeth is seen as a kind, loyal and heroic character but towards the end of the play he is seen as an evil “dictator”. Macbeth has personally changed throughout the entire play, mainly because of the persuasion and influence from the Witches and Lady Macbeth.

Character Analysis In the Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth, women are consider weak and emotional, but Lady Macbeth is different. Women were not smart or equal to men, but Lady Macbeth is the man in her relationship with Macbeth. Macbeth trusts her and tell her what he has knows or heard.

William Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth, shows the rise and fall of a noble solider who allows his obsession with power to overtake him, and this is no better shown than in Act 3 Scene 2 of the play.

Macbeth starts out in the story as a great, highly appreciated, pure and noble man. Throughout the story though his actions and the way he starts to perceive what’s around him starts to change and as his mind grows more into insanity, his emotions also begin to dull. Another quote by Shaley J. Lyndon is, “As he tries to extricate himself from evil, only to be pulled deeper into its depths”. Macbeth is seen as a tragic hero due to him being noticed as a noble and loyal man, but by the end of the story he dies as a wicked, fallacious man, and this is because of how madness was able to take him over and he was actually being destroyed from the inside by his mind. Many factors made the protagonist Macbeth fall into the path of madness. The first aspect to consider is the fact that he committed a guilty crime which was killing King Duncan so he could become next in line for king. After doing this, Macbeth gets a guilty conscious which starts tricking his mind into seeing the world in a more deranged perspective. After killing the King, Macbeth is easily deciphered as a dynamic character because he then changed drastically in a short period

Macbeth is a play about a man and his desires that get the best of him. The calamity is fashioned through the inspiration of several characters including his wife, Lady Macbeth and the exciting force the witches create that begin the underlying motif of sleeplessness. Macbeth is a good person at heart, but through various temptations becomes obsessed and gets destroyed by the very thing he thought would bring him happiness: his pursuit to become king. Shakespeare utilizes the motif of sleeplessness in the play as a metaphor for being restless to achieve his final goal.
