Destiny, Fate, Free Will and Free Choice in Macbeth - Lady Macbeth as
doll Macbeth as a Tool of Fate The adjoin of Macbeth is each(prenominal) ab egress power and greed. It is about ambition everyplaceriding inhibitions and the sense of right and wrong of a good man. We know that nigh people consider Macbeth to be a good and a brave man at the bolt down of the book, for example King Duncan himself refers to him as O valiant cousin, worthy humans He is admired for his skills in battle by e preciseone. It is hard to guess what driving force underlies the events of the story, and it is equally hard to know what emotions or convictions drive the characters to do what they did. Parts of the text give us detail and sagacity as to the relation and power balance in the marriage of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, this can be interpreted and used to try to work out who actually made the major decisions concerning murder. From the very beginning Lady Macbeth is presented as ambitious and driving.That no compunctious visitings of natureShake my fell employm ent, nor keep recreation betweenTheffect and itWhen she says this she means that nothing will embarrass her from fulfilling her aim, and that pity will have no effect on her. This purpose does seem to stand strong for the first few scenes, in which the most important crimes are committed, but as she and Macbeth grow apart, and her involvement in the play lessens, so does her resolve.When she first greets her husband, on his return, it is clear how proud she is of his new gained titles. It is also clear how eager he is to gain her praise, after the talk with the weird sisters he immediately thinks to write home and tell her. This is very unusual for the time in which the play was set there would usually be more dominance from the husband, whereas Macbeth and Lady Macbeth seem to be e... ... tidy sum to help the plot unfold. Usually, however Shakespeares plays are more school and there can usually be found a grounds for an event. I conclude that Lady Macbeth was a tool of fat e. I guess the witches manipulated her, or their controller did so, to in turn exercise her influence over Macbeth and play out a series predetermined events. I do not think there is meant to be a reason in this play, but there is a moral, a mystery, and a great underlying evil. I do not know what Shakespeare wanted this evil to represent, perchance he did not know himself or perhaps it represents the vulnerability of all humans to fate, or chance perhaps it pessimistically represents a base evil in humans or perhaps he wrote it to violate his audiences and leave them wonderingWorks CitedShakespeare, William.
