Lady Macbeth

I found the relationship between Macbeth and Lady Macbeth very interesting in the play. In Act I they are completely devoted to each other. Love, respect and trust are the contents of their relationship. The trust in the relationship is revealed right at the beginning when Macbeth sends his wife a letter telling her about the witches and the predictions “This have I thought good to deliver to thee, my dearest partner of greatness, that thee mightst not lose the dues of rejoicing by being ignorant of what greatness is promised thee.” (I, v, 10-13). The affection between the two is clearly shown when Macbeth salutes his wife with “My dearest love” (I, v, 58) and also on the

Macbeth relationship to Lady Macbeth is not only husband and wife. At times Macbeth becomes depend on Lady Macbeth. Causing Lady Macbeth to make decision for Macbeth. There is no better example of this than act one scenes five and seven. "She Decides to help him gain the crown.... Lady Macbeth decides that Duncan will be killed while staying there" (Rahim 2). Later in scene seven Lady Macbeth tells Macbeth that indeed he wants to kill Duncan.

Lady Macbeth 's impetus for Macbeth to kill Duncan shows she is able to control Macbeth. She sees Macbeth as a weak man

Macbeth’s relationship with Lady Macbeth stays the same after he becomes king in that he show her same respect that he did before becoming king. He uses words of love when talking to her. Such tokens of love can be seen before Macbeth becomes king when he writes the letter to Lady Macbeth that contains these words: “This have I thought good to deliver/Thee, my dearest partner of greatness…”(I.v.10-11) Macbeth writes a letter to his wife about the witches’ prophecies and uses the phrase, “my dearest partner of greatness,” showing that he respects her and truly cares for her wellbeing. This same reaction can be seen after Macbeth seizes the throne. When Lady Macbeth and Macbeth express their unhappiness after becoming king and queen, Macbeth says to his wife in a loving way, “Be innocent

Lady Macbeth appears evil, but this is proof of her devotion and drive to assist Macbeth rise to the throne. Macbeth is doubtful about their plan to kill King Duncan; however, Lady Macbeth bombards him with comments that question his courage. She goes as far as telling him his love his worth nothing if he refuses, which proves her to be dominant and controlling using his own weakness against him. His love for her. The fact that she belittles his confidence, insults his abilities, and questions his manhood & ambitions showing how manipulative she can be, but also wise because it worked in her favour. She said to him “Screw your courage to the sticking place” (1.7.60). Because Lady Macbeth manages to drive Macbeth to Duncan’s death, this shows viewers that Lady Macbeths own ambition is the real driving force behind most of Macbeth’s actions, because of his strong dedicated love for her.

Lady Macbeth’s strength of will persists through the murder of King Duncan as it is she who tries to calm Macbeth after committing the crime by declaring confidently that, “a little water clears us of this deed,” (2.2.67). Afterward, however, Lady Macbeth’s strong and ambitious character begins to deteriorate into madness. Her first sign of weakness occurred when she confessed that she could not have killed the king, revealing a natural woman’s feelings, “had he not resembled my father as he slept, I had done’t” (2.2.13-14). Just as ambition has affected her before more so then Macbeth before the crime, the guilt plagues her now more effectively afterward as she desperately tried to wash away the invisible blood from her sin, “Here’s the smell of the blood still: all the perfume of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand,” (5.1.48-49). Lady Macbeth’s

One can argue that all of the mischief in the play is caused my Lady Macbeth. The person who is the most influential is Lady Macbeth.

When Macbeth was introduced to his late wife, there was a spark between them I've never seen before. Macbeth treated his conquest with such respect and delicacy, she couldn't have refused his proposal. They had a very close marriage, and it was filled with love and warmth. It was the kind of union every man hopes he'll be blessed with in his lifetime. Lady Macbeth once told me that her husband was the most caring man she'd ever met. I believe that prior to Macbeth's troubles and strife, that he and his wife had a very healthy relationship. When his wife's mental health was beginning to fail, he could not bear to watch his beloved deteriorate. In the end perhaps it was best that they not go on in life without the other. Their love was deep and beautiful, even if it was incomprehensible at times.

In Shakespeare's play “Macbeth”, Lady Macbeth uses her deceptive skills to over power Macbeth. She questions his manhood, manipulates him and uses seduction to take what she desires.

Shakespeare introduces Macbeth and Lady Macbeth in the beginning of the play as a couple who are unique, but functional.
