Who Is The Protagonist In Macbeth

In Act I, the three witches visit Macbeth and Banquo on the heath. The witches make three predictions; Macbeth will be the Thane of Cawdor, he will be King, and Banquo’s sons will be king but not Banquo. Even though the witches did make these prophecies, Macbeth’s fate was

It was prophesized by these three witches that Macbeth would be Thane of Cawdor and King here after. Banquo who was also given a prophecy was told that he would be father of many Kings though he shall never be King and he replied to the witches in the way if Macbeth had followed would not lead to so much bloodshed and suffering caused to himself and others. Banquo said that he would leave such things to nature and the hands of time; if it be so then it will happen. Macbeth on the other hand did not stop to think that the witches were evil and trying to deceive him, for as Banquo states, sometimes evil forces in order to win us over tells us good, just to deceive us later.

In the scene where we are introduced to Macbeth there are three witches who give him a prophecy. This prophecy says that he will become thane of Cawdor as well as king and that afterwards Banquo’s sons will become

In Act I, the three witches visit Macbeth and Banquo. The weird sisters make three predictions; Macbeth will become the Thane of Cawdor, he will become King, and Banquo’s sons will become king. Even though the witches did make these prophecies, Macbeth’s fate was not yet sealed. Later in the same scene, Ross and Angus meet Macbeth. They tell Macbeth that he is now the Thane of Cawdor.

In life, people will always make wrong decisions and these wrong decisions lead to destructive consequences. Macbeth does this in the play “Macbeth”. A tragic hero is a literary character who makes a judgment error that leads to his/her own destruction. Fate and external forces bring on the tragedy in a tragic hero’s life. And in William Shakespeare’s play “Macbeth”, Macbeth goes through situations in his life that portray him as a tragic hero: his ambition, the witches prophecy, and Lady Macbeth show the development of Macbeth as a tragic hero.

In the play “Macbeth” we strongly agree about the statement “The most effective villain is one who attracts and repels.” Our essay includes or talks about the most effective villain which is Macbeth due to his crimes that he has committed and how he has changed throughout in the play. A theme that most supports this statement is “Appearance vs Reality,” of Macbeth. We will also include examples of the different appearances of Macbeth in different situations. To back up our statement there will be quotes which express the appearance of emotions on Macbeth’s face at time or situation and connect it with reality. “Did he really mean what he said or did?” The essay will also discuss about the different language features which are used in the quotes like, repetition.

This essay is over the character Macbeth from the story Macbeth. Macbeth is a strong character who is loved by everyone is his kingdom. In the story he is the greatest knight who has ever lived and no one can beat him. People come and give him gifts just for being so great. Macbeth plays the most important role in this tory because its the story of a time in his life and his demise. Its the story of how he almost became the most successful knight ever to live by owning two kingdoms but becaseu of one crazy chick, all that gets ruined. All together Macbeth was a wonderful person and strong knight, but because of foolishness, love, and being whipped he lost it all. In the story of macbeth there are more than one morals or lesosns that can be

These prophecies severely change the lives of both soldiers.  The three witches surprise Macbeth and Banquo but tell Macbeth the prophecy of him being given the position of Thane of Cawdor.  Secondly speaking, ¡§All hail, Macbeth, that shalt be King hereafter!¡¨  (Act 1, scene iii p.12)  They then tell Banquo that his sons will be kings but he will never rule a King.   This news frightens Macbeth and both try to put it in the back of their minds, thinking of it as a prank.  This is until Ross, one of the kings men, greets Macbeth and Banquo and gives great news to Macbeth in these words:

The tragic hero has been a major storytelling tool in recent years that makes the audience relate to, respect, and feel sympathy for a character which is undone by the end of the story. But can this title be given to Macbeth, the titular hero of the Shakespeare play by the same name? Yes, absolutely- Shakespeare’s Macbeth follows this plot path in numerous ways. Throughout the play, we are introduced to Macbeth’s belovedness, the crushing of said established belovedness, and his own undoing.

Duncan is the most unlikely character to be killed because of his personality, but his title as King of Scotland, causes for Macbeth to loathe Duncan. In the play there is very little interaction between Macbeth and Duncan, showing the little time in which Macbeth gets more power. Prior to the witches’ prophecies Macbeth is loyal to Duncan, and would never imagine killing him. After the one of the witches’ prophecies comes to be true, the thought of killing Duncan, Macbeth "yield[s] to that suggestion / whose horrid image doth unfix my hair / and make my seated heart knock at my ribs" (1.3.146-148). Partly because of Lady Macbeth’s suggestion his "vaulting ambition" is starting to take over, and he begins to take into consideration killing

Being fortunetellers makes it hard for people to believe you. These three sisters prophecies many different things throughout the play. They prophecies that Macbeth indeed does become king of Cawdor, in which case he does. Banquo believes these witches are legit, for now he wants what they prophesied him “May they not be my oracles as well.” He wants what he was promised.

Macbeth is involved with many different people including those whom he ends up having murdered. Macbeth and Banquo, for example, have a good and strong military relationship and friendship. The fact that they are cousins makes their relationship extremely unique in many ways. When the Witches are there to tell Macbeth about his future, Banquo keeps a steady head almost to the point where he is starting to become more worried about his own future and powers, not what is being told to Macbeth. Banquo then proceeds to ask the witches about his own future to which they respond by telling him “ Thou shalt get kings, though thou be none”(I,iii,67). This reveals that Banquo might not exactly become king, but his children will, which angers Macbeth later on. Once Macbeth becomes king and Banquo has suspicions about how he obtained power, Macbeth then changes the relationship between the two by going after Banquo and his son Fleance with hired murderers. This again allows for the Witches to change how those in the relationship act and turn against one another shocking many. It is believed that Macbeth and Banquo are good friends until shortly after the

The story of Macbeth has its share of twists and turns including some very strong ideas. However, through all these twists and turns the argument of if Macbeth is a tragic hero is still one of the most iconic arguments of all time. Which brings to the point of this essay, Macbeth is indeed the Tragic hero you don’t want to believe he is. So enough talking let’s dive into the argument of if Macbeth is tragic hero or not.

In William shakespeare’s Macbeth,Macbeth is a classic example of a tragic hero in shakesperean work.Macbeth display the major characteristics of a tragic hero throughout the play until his tragic end.The play potrays Macbeth as a lost cause by showing how he fell from being a honest and just man who fought for whats right, to a cruel,superstitious,ambicious dictator.In william shakespreares Macbeth,Macbeth is a tragic hero because he compromises his honor and negates his moral values in order to obtain power which results with lots of tragic events such as character deaths leading to his tragic end.

The antagonist in this story can be argued that Macbeth is both the antagonist and protagonist. But to me the antagonist in the story Macbeth is Macduff. Macduff is the one trying to get the so called "Hero" thrown from being king. He suspected that Macbeth killed King Duncan to become King. So Macduff does not like Macbeth and he knows that he Macbeth killed Duncan. Macbeth is the tragic hero and is the bad guy in this story. Macbeth was told he would become King but he chose to kill Duncan because he thought it would be okay because he knew he was already gonna be king. So Macduff leaves to England and finds out that Macduff's wife and children have been killed. So Macduff travels back to kill the tragic hero because he is the real
