'Macbeth' is Shakespeare's shortest tragic play in which the main character, Macbeth, becomes the tragic hero. He begins as "a noble lord" only to end up as "Devilish Macbeth." But who or what is responsible for Macbeth's tragic downfall? I believe that Macbeth is partly responsible for the tragic events that occur, including the murder of King Duncan, Banquo, Lady Macduff, and her children. However, Macbeth was influenced by the supernatural witches and severe pressure from his wife, Lady Macbeth. The themes of destiny, ambition, greed, and virility are expressed in Macbeth's action and his tragic downfall. First, Macbeth is partly responsible for the tragedy that befell him. He has always harbored a desire to become king, as seen in his soliloquy after the witches' prophecies, where he admits that his desires are not just "black" but "deep", and the play traces his course from the worthy Thane to the " died". butcher", fueled by brutal ambition. The events of the play can be traced back to the character of Macbeth himself. Macbeth is a good man who uses his best asses - his ambition - to excess, causing his fall. He is a classic tragic hero. Macbeth chose to listen to the witches and his wife. His ambition drove him to fight bravely in the first battle and win the title of Thane of Cawdor ambition has taken over his mind and he will do anything, including killing the king he loves, under his own roof, to satisfy that ambition. As the show went on, he became a cold and unfeeling man sanity and is driven by immoral thoughts that make him act as quickly as he thinks. He let superstition, greed and evil take over his mind, resulting in many deaths. He turned away from being.. . in the center of the card... and the role it plays in the play. One can only wonder if Macbeth ever had the chance to do what was right after hearing the witches' prophecies. In conclusion, I believe that the witches' supernatural prophecies, Lady Macbeth's severe pressure, and Macbeth's greedy ambition and betrayal add to the tragic events that take place in Shakespeare's "Macbeth". “Brave Macbeth” at the beginning of the play succumbs to pressure, expectations, and greed to become “Devilish Macbeth” in the closing lines of the play. Things couldn't have gone worse for Macbeth. He had many chances to avoid his fate, but once he decided to kill Duncan, he lost control. The show is a “perfect storm” of choice and destiny. Shakespeare's play ends in tragedy, as most of the main characters end up murdered or commit suicide; however Good wins over Evil and peace and justice are re-established in Scotland.
