Macbeth
|
|
|
By close reference to the text and to appropriate scenes and events, show how Shakespeare explores his idea in his play, ‘Macbeth’.
Macbeth is a tragic play about a man who lusted after power, stole the throne of Scotland from the rightful Prince Malcolm, and threw the country into chaos through his evil reign. ... Ironically, at the beginning of the play, Macbeth has everything going for him. ... Macbeth, encouraged and manipulated by his even greedier wife, murders King Duncan in order to seize the throne for himself. ... The noble Macduff, heartsick over the state of affairs in Scotland, goes to Malcolm, who has fled to England, and encourages him to fight Macbeth in order to gain the throne, which is rightfully his. He learns that Malcolm has already assembled 10,000 English soldiers who are ready to fight Macbeth. ... At the end Macduff personally beheads Macbeth in revenge for the murder of his family.
I would say that the main climax or crisis of the play is when the murder of King Duncan takes place-Duncan killed by Macbeth himself with the aid of Lady Macbeth. This was the first unnatural act in the play-this was unnatural because Macbeth had everything going for him-he had the title of Thane of Cawdor, he even had a strong friendship with Ducan so it seemed unnatural for Macbeth to even think about killing Ducan.
